Ivan did some work for around 2 month near Newcastle about an hour and a half from Sydney. While working up here a young girl went missing and has never been found. This guy took more people than we know about.

When this story was at its height in Australia I was at a stand up comedy bar and a drunk female patron standing next to me at the bar started yelling “Ivan Milat is Innocent!.” It was well handled by the comedian at first but then she wouldn’t stop and ruined his performance and she had to be thrown out. It blew my mind because we all knew he wasn’t innocent.

I have to say, the one thing that really blows my mind every time about this case is how most of his family still refuse to believe he's guilty. They even kicked one of his brothers out of the family for believing justice was done in this case. I never wonder how his nephew ended up a killer growing up with a family like his.

We tend to be alittle desensitized to descriptive violence but every now and then a case just hits different. Last one for me was this poor kid that got abused by his mom and step-dad. Seeing the kids mothers day projects in contrast to the abuse he suffered really fucked me up.

In 1999 I stayed in a residential rehab for three months, in that time I got to know a guy who had been a farm manager in northern New South Wales, the same state as the Belanglo forest, and this guy took me aside one day to tell me about an experience he had...... Sitting in a pub one afternoon, he was approached by a guy who told him that he had seen him checking fences out on a property, near where coincidentally, his car had broken down, he had hitched into the town to buy a part to repair his car and had seen my friend walk into the pub, so, he had decided to ask my friend if he could give him a ride back out near to where his car was, if he was going back that way. My friend said sure. So, they drive out and my friend points to a turnoff to the property he manages as they drive along, he thinks the guys car must be near so has decided to take him to it, there is no car, the guy has been watching my friend all day and followed him when he drove into town, watched him go into the pub, followed, told him the broken down car story, and now pulls out a handgun. My friend is trembling telling me about this, describing how the guy told him to drive further into a wooded area, they reach a fire access road and my friend is told to get out of the car...... As they are standing there, the sound of a Forestry Ranger vehicle can be heard approaching, the guy jumps in my friends car and takes off leaving my friend standing there in utter terror....... As my friend, who is now overcome with emotion, is telling me this, he looks up and says, it was Ivan Milat...........!! I was the only person he had told this to, and I believe him.

This one hits too close to home... belanglo state forest is maybe 40 minutes from me. I'm not sure if you mentioned Matthew because the video is new, but I used to run in circles with friends of his. I'm glad I never had the displeasure of meeting him for myself. This will be a tough watch, but I'm glad you're covering it.

You've done a wonderful job of telling his story so, again, thank you.

According to feminism, EVERYTHING is about power. Everything everyone does is a power game. So, under the feminist definition of rape, it's ALWAYS about power, and for that matter under the feminist definition, SEX is also always about power.

Apparently he was obviously dangerous and got sent to a school for troubled kids, always threatening people.

I watched all of them all the way through but I couldn’t deal with Snowtown the movie based on the real story. I felt dirty and to this day I’ve not finished it! It’s filmed in such a realistic way even using local towns folk as extra’s. If you’re going to watch it BEWARE it makes Hostel or Saw look like Disney movies.

Incredible research on all of your posts. I am an Australian born at a time to really remember the horrific crimes the Milat brothers perpetrated here. Yes it was the brothers. Not just Ivan, although he was the main murderer. Our Crown prosecutors definitely took the road down to Ivan being the main culprit. The main Judge in sentencing Ivan Milat, Justice David Hunt, acknowledged that he probably did not act alone in many of these murders. Richard Milat in particular is very suspect. There were a number of different brands of cigarettes smoked at the crime scenes . There were also so many different M.O’s in the way the victims were killed, it is highly likely more than one Milat was the killer. Alex Milat is also highly likely to have been involved. Horrific, horrific murders.

Meee too! I’m on the Gold Coast 💜

It's great to wake up and see a notification of a new This is MONSTERS video! Thank you for all that you do, it's truly fascinating.

I remember going to outdoor races in the mid 1980’s in the Balangelo State Forest. We’d heard about these backpacker murders and whilst we were of the right age, we didn’t hitchhike and therefore weren’t scared. Many years later, I remember Ivan getting busted. It never occurred to me that I may have been close to any of it…. Good job, thank you!!!

I dont mind waiting for ThisIsMonsters content, because i know whenever it comes out, itll be well done

I recently watched a video on the nephew and had no idea who Ivan Milat was. What an absolutely monsterous family.

Another Aussie here … would recommend you cover Bradley Murdoch and the Outback murder… i honestly dont think any Aussie hitchhikes here due to some pretty horrific murders and incidents!!

This is my home state and thus was a very frightening case. Ivan just terrorised those beautiful young backpackers, Really evil monster.

1 thing I don't understand...... how the hell did Milat's mother, having 14 kids, no job come up with $1,000 for bail in 1971?? I just find it weird......

He ended up being found innocent through DNA evidence. He had a horrific time in prison. People putting shit and broken glass in his food. But hopefully these days there aren't many innocent people wrongly convicted. Imagine if he'd been murdered by an inmate. Though if I had been in his situation Id rather die.

This is exactly why I was not happy to hear from my daughter, that when she was done with school, she wanted to go backpacking in Europe. She ended up not going, which is good and bad in so many ways. When I was growing up in the 60's and 70's, this was not a concern, because we had no idea stuff like this was going on out there in the world. Probably because our whole world was our neighborhood, and school. Completely oblivious. The internet sure changed that. Bless the souls of these victims. RIP 💟

Actually met him twice First time he was clean shaven and hanging around a park. Talking to little kids 2nd time he had a moustache and beard looked nothing like he did before I worked in a shopping centre collecting trolleys I was ordering lunch he was ordering his lunch from same place I didn’t recognise him. With the beard. Only after they caught him and made the news did I recognise him. It turned out I saved those little kids lives when I called out to them saying their mother is calling them. When I said that he ran to his green Datsun bluebird station wagon with black bullbar and took off True story

There’s a theory been going around that another Milat (most likely Robert) was helping Ivan with the killings because of how different some were from Ivan’s M.O and Robert just so happened to have damning physical evidence once the Milats were being questioned. One of my relatives actually lived right next to a Milat. Apparently they’re ALL a weird bunch. I actually remember seeing this person (rarely) come out, but when she did, she was belligerent and I think actually started a couple of fights (both verbally and physically). She also kept defending Ivan and I was super confused until I got older and my mum told me she was a Milat. Everything clicked and made sense about her weird antisocial behaviour.

UGH I have to save this for tomorrow morning when I’m getting ready for work . 😫 I’ll be back y’all.

I’ve seen 3 different stories about this case but this is by far the most detailed and most interesting one !! Amazing job dude!

This creep grew up 20 minutes from my house , I love Sydney but I hate the fact that the sentencing here is a joke,. Unlike the U.S which has much more adequate sentencing especially for pedophiles, I lived in San Bernardino for many years and around Orange County and I learned that in most cases bail was denied for the majority of felonies.

One of his brothers was interviewed and he is ashamed and disgusted by what Ivan did to these poor people.

Quick story: my dad used to work with Ivan Milat doing road work/ construction just before he started his killing spree. One day after Ivan got into an altercation after a disagreement onsite, he stormed off and left. When everyone was on lunch beak sitting at a table, he returned with a revolver, slammed it down on the table and said "now boys, what were we talking about again?" Needless to say Ivan didn't last long at the company, but yeah the old man had a somewhat close encounter with Australia's worst serial killer.

It's NOT that "so much" goes on in the U.S. as you said. It's the fact that there are about 331 million people in U.S. and only about 26 million in Australia. Obviously "so much" more happens in U.S. because of sheer numbers. Has this never occurred to you? FYI- Just the state of California alone has over 40 million people if that helps you. Or: Just the state of Florida alone has about the same population as your ENTIRE country.

What I wanna know is if they gave Paul Onion that well deserved half a million dollar tip that led to the arrest.

Thanks Jiles.. excellent as always… This story has always been a twisted one.. Ivan was a sick sick monster.. I can’t imagine what his victims endured.. thankfully he was caught.. When they get away from consequences it’s so frustrating.. And his nephew? Wow.. his story is just gross.. bragging about who his uncle was until he managed to kill some innocent soul himself .. if I remember correctly, he didn’t have the name millat to start, but wanted the association.. I might be misremembering but I know he was super proud of his nasty relative 🤦‍♀️ just awful..

Wow, Alex sure did have pretty specific details of someone that he passed in a car
