EPISODE TWO: THE HUNT FOR THE DRIVER
The current reward for information to help solve the homicide investigation stands at $100,000.
After 15 years, the police investigators have not been able to identify who is responsible for Nathan’s death and hope the reward will encourage those who saw something to come forward.
At the party, everyone was drunk. 15 years have passed. And the bonds of mateship are so powerful that even today, the people who know the truth are scared to talk.
Years of speculation and rumour has reached fever pitch.
Someone knows what happened and the Garriock family are determined to get some closure.
“You can’t expect me to understand. There were so many people at that party and nobody saw anything? They say ‘I saw Nathan lying on the ground’, well how did he get there?” says Nathan’s mother Joan.
Just after midnight on June 15, 2003, Nathan Garriock’s body was found underneath a white Holden Commodore.
The car had ploughed into a crowd of teenagers who were celebrating an 18th birthday party.
No one has been charged with Nathan’s death and his family want to know who is responsible.
