Macca and Paul talk to Dechlan Brennan, discuss, Coronial inquest opens, 1987 deaths of Indigenous cousins Mona Lisa Smith and Jacinta ‘Cindy’ Smith.
The two girls – described as “like sisters” – were found dead on the side of the Mitchell highway, next to a crashed ute, in the early hours of December 6, 1987.
White man Ian Alexander Grant, who is deceased but was 40 at the time, was found with his arm draped across the body of Cindy, who was bare chested and partially naked.
He was subsequently found not guilty of drink driving causing death by an all-white jury in 1990, with a further charge of interfering with a corpse being dropped on the eve of the trial.
