  • One of the most notorious outlaws and criminals in History is Ned Kelly who in Australia caused chaos with his gang. The Kelly Gang were a group of bush rangers who fatally shot 3 policemen and continued to rob and pillage across Australia. They were heavily sought after, and their leader was Ned Kelly who had a number of run ins with the law. He had been imprisoned a number of times, but the Kelly gang evaded capture and robbed a number of banks. They also murdered other people, but then a huge shootout occured. Ned Kelly in this huge metal armour withstood a huge shootout, however he was heavily wounded.
    After heading into the bush to recover, Ned Kelly made his last stand as he attacked the police in his metal armour. He was shot in the legs but he managed to survive and he was then placed on trial. The Judge sentenced him to death, and in front a large crowd inside of a prison in Melbourne, Ned Kelly was executed. The notorious outlaw has gone down in History as one of the most infamous.

    Speaking as an Australian, I would like to point out here that Ned Kelly was born by Irish parents. In Australia, the Irish were heavily mistreated by the Police and government of the time. Also, his father was a free Irish convict who secured his freedom and many convict families were mistreated heavily by authority back in the day. So, there were many shortcomings that led Ned to choosing his lawless career as a bushranger. Good video man.

      rowbo88 RUBBISH COMMENT. 82% of the police in Victoria were IRISH. Kelly was not mistreated by the police or the government, as the 1881 Royal commission established. If you claim that was the position, present your evidence.

      Ned was martyred. it wasn't just the Irish they targeted. The cops cuffed Aboriginals then cut their penis off, laughing as they ran around screaming before slowly decapitating them alive. Women were raped and or stabbed in the vagina with sabers or anything they could muster, Elders incinerated alive, children beaten, raped and kidnapped into harems of prostitution run by police, cops competing with each other who could kick the babies heads the furthest. The psychopathy so repugnant it became an honor for them to historically record their actions, Pedo headhunting cops, These maggots ruined Australian history, now their pupae govern and police us off the wealth they generated. That's what's wrong with Australia, police psychopathy!

    What many do not know is that Ned and his gang consisted of far more than just the 4 of them. Many locals were ready for when the train derailed and the police were ambushed and killed or taken prisoner. The plan was to then march en masse to Melbourne to sieze government and start a revolution against British rule. The situation with the Irish miners and other impoverished people was such, that the plan very nearly succeeded. Also, Neds father, Red Kelly was involved in the uprising at the Eureka Stockade in Ballarat against the miners right fees, so it could be quite rightly said that the Kelly family were revolutionaries. This is more than likely the reason the family was targeted by the police from the get go. The FACT that so many signed a petition for clemency for Ned shows that revolution was indeed simmering just beneath the surface of 1870-80's Australia. One can only wonder what Australia would be like now had they succeeded. THIS is the reason Ned and his companions are considered heroes by many freedom loving Australians up to this day. SUCH IS LIFE. R.I.P Ned

      luke S What a load of tripe you have written. Nothing you have stated is true.
      The Kelly gang consisted of 4 men. Ned Kelly, Dan Kelly, Steve, Hart and Joe Byrne.
      There were no locals at Glenrowan waiting for the train to be derailed. Made up fiction by pro Kelly authors.
      Ned Kelly intended to murder all the police and civilians on the train, when ride to Benalla and rob the banks and blow up the police station. Nothing to do with Melbourne at all.
      Red Kelly had nothing to do with the Eureka Stockade.
      The suggestion that Ned Kelly intended to proclaim a republic was made up by Ian Jones, a pro Kelly author. It was total rubbish and was not true.
      The petition has about 3-4,000 genuine signatures on it, not 30,000 as claimed. It is still in possession of Records, Victoria.
      You are talking made up rubbish, luke, and the sooner you wake up to the fact that you know nothing about Ned Kelly the better off we will all be.

      Slightly bias video. Police today are almost as brutal & corrupt as in Ned's day (who will ever forget Melbourne lockdowns. Old lady bashed to ground & pepper sprayed, pregnant woman in pyjamas arrested in home etc) Image back in the 1870s when the law WAS the big landowners who had the police & judges in their pockets. A poor man had no chance. Ned was a product of this & his hatred of the 'traps' grew with every outrage. The fact is a Royal Commission into the 'affair' was conducted in early 1881 & resulted in the sacking of two police Superintendents, a police inspector being retired & several other officers reduced in rank. The charge of attempted murder of constable Fitzpatrick by Ned & his brother Dan was found to be false. Fitzpatrick was later dismissed from the police force on several counts & that he 'could not be trusted out of sight & never did his duty'. The police in the bush were notorious for corruption & lagging innocent men for monetary reward from rich land owners who lost livestock. Any man would do so long as the police got their reward. Many innocent people spent years locked up in hell holes while the police conducted themselves like tyrants - which was also raised in the Royal Commission & was one of Ned's grievances. Just look at the police shooting peaceful innocent protesters in Victoria recently & the brutal way they conducted themselves. Nothing has changed in Victoria. I had the privilege of speaking with Ern Straughair from Benalla in 1991. This man knew Jim Kelly, Ned's brother. He told me that during the police stakeout on the Kelly homestead, Kate Kelly was raped by the police when she went for a horse ride. She was 15.

    I was born & lived 10 minutes from Melbourne, and seen his armour & death mask in Old Melbourne Goal. He had reasons for his actions. The Irish were treated horribly by banks and police. You missed the assault of his sister by a constable which was the catalyst, and that his mother and sister were later unjustly imprisoned to force Ned to surrender. Also the gangs removal of train rails leading to Glenrowan, which if successful would of killed dozens of police who wanted the gang dead.
    The Story of The Kelly Gang; Australia's first moving picture, Ned's mother was invited to attend the premier and declined.
    Images of Kelly and the Kelly Gang seen in armour were police recreations after their deaths. Or from the above 1906 film.
    For many years, the skull of Ned Kelly was used a paperweight on the Wardens desk at Old Melbourne Goal, his armour, guns, skull and body was stolen, lost and partially returned. His mother was subject to cruel torment by the Law during life and after death.
    Ned was admired by the people of Australia because he fought for rights of people unjustly treated by those in power or authority who absconded Justice. Many of Kellys robberies included bank mortgages of immigrants, that he then burnt. The 1800s banks and police of Australia were viewed as criminals by the immigrant community, Ned was fighting justice in the form of revenge against whom most viewed as above the law.

      Two of the early premiers in Victoria were IRISH. 82% of the police in Victoria were IRISH. Kelly murdered 3 police at Stringybark Creek. They were all IRISH.
      Ned Kelly and his family were LOATHED by the people living in the Greta area. Poor settlers kept their meagre savings in the two banks that Ned Kelly robbed. Some of the documents he burnt were title deeds that destroyed the rightful poor settlers being able to prove they owned their property.
      The police were well respected in NE Victoria, as the Royal Commission found.

    Several serious mistakes. It was Kelly who was camped at Stringy Bark Creek, not the police. The police rode in shooting and Kelly stood up and called on them to Surrender. In 1980 the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Victoria stated Kelly should have been convicted of Manslaughter not, murder. Reason, Police had gone out as private citizens in plain clothes to collect the rewards, not as policemen, stating that they were going to bring the gang back dead. Also, the Chief Justice said the Judge Sir Redman Berry did not give him a fair trial. I also understand that the doctor stated that Fitzpatricks wound was from a metal object not a gunshot. Kelly commented that if he wanted to shoot the bastard he would not have missed at 3 feet. On the occasion Kelly was working as a timber cutter and arrived home to Find his mother trying to stop Fitzpatrick assaulting her daughter. After the event numerous police were sacked, including an Inspector Stanish who shot civilians escaping from the hotel at Glenrowan. All police from Greta were removed, and a new unbiased Sergeant was installed who over a few years resolved the conflict between the settlers and the squatters. Other than the policeman Kelly did not shoot any others. Kelly was a criminal, but he was also a product of the time where there was continual conflict between the police and squatters and the common people. Certainly NOT an excellent episode>

      2. The Chief Justice relied on the fiction written by Ian Jones to make that comment. He was badly misinformed.
      3. All police in those days wore plain clothes. That was normal.
      4. They had two sets of handcuffs with them to secure the prisoners. The reward was only £100.
      5. The doctor that examined Fitzpatrick's wound, said it was probably a bullet wound. Your comment is not true.
      6. Kate Kelly was never touched by Fitzpatrick. She made up that fiction 10 months after the event to discredit the officer. Again, you are talking nonsense.
      7. The only police that were sacked were the 3 police who were in Sherritts hut. No such person as Stanish. You probably mean Chief Commissioner Standish. He was not sacked, as he had retired 6 months before the Royal Commission even started.
      8. There was only one incident where Sgt Steele shot at one of the hostages, believing him to be one of the gang members trying to escape. No other police shot at any hostages.
      9. No police were removed from Greta, but a new constable was appointed to work at Greta.
      10. The so called war between the squatters and the settlers, was settled in the settler's favour by 1869. Well before the Kelly era of criminality. You have no idea.
      11. Ned Kelly shot a civilian in the eye at Glenrowan. George Metcalf was shot in the eye accidentally, but Kelly refused him medical attention, and he died 2 months later.
      What you have stated is a load of garbage, with not one fact correct.

    Found Ned Kelly's story interesting, so i ended up doing a historical deep dive, but what I also found was so disturbing, it completely ruins Australian history, a police action so repugnant, it will scar your mind forever. Police enjoyed hunting children for sex and profit, really evil cops whom murdered/decapitated parents by the thousands, their children kidnapped and raped into large harems of children prostitution, the immense wealth and power generated intergenerational, so their kin continue to police and or govern us today, all historically documented Australian history.
    Whole families, clans, tribes, races wiped out, decapitated by police, the headless sun bleached bones of which can still be found today in remote locations. Ned met the same fate, decapitated, his skull a trophy on a cops desk, martyred by police.

      I have read that Hickock's true birth name was Butler, which is a common name in Tipperary, so there is a possibility his grandparents may have met up in Tipperary or through mutual friends of Tipperary origin in the USA. The reason he got the name 'wild bill' I believe, was because of he wild escapades while fighting in the American civil war, and he changed his name from Butler to Hickock after a run in with the law.

    Extremely bias & inaccurate video. Police today are almost as brutal & corrupt as in Ned's day (who will ever forget Melbourne lockdowns. Old lady bashed to ground & pepper sprayed, pregnant woman in pyjamas arrested in home etc) Image back in the 1870s when the law WAS the big landowners who had the police & judges in their pockets. A poor man had no chance. Ned was a product of this & his hatred of the 'traps' grew with every outrage. The fact is a Royal Commission into the 'affair' was conducted in early 1881 & resulted in the sacking of two police Superintendents, a police inspector being retired & several other officers reduced in rank. The charge of attempted murder of constable Fitzpatrick by Ned & his brother Dan was found to be false. Fitzpatrick was later dismissed from the police force on several counts & that he 'could not be trusted out of sight & never did his duty'. The police in the bush were notorious for corruption & lagging innocent men for monetary reward from rich land owners who lost livestock. Any man would do so long as the police got their reward. Many innocent people spent years locked up in hell holes while the police conducted themselves like tyrants - which was also raised in the Royal Commission & was one of Ned's grievances. Just look at the police shooting peaceful innocent protesters in Victoria recently & the brutal way they conducted themselves. Nothing has changed in Victoria. I had the privilege of speaking with Ern Straughair from Benalla in 1991. This man knew Jim Kelly, Ned's brother. He told me that during the police stakeout on the Kelly homestead, Kate Kelly was raped by the police when she went for a horse ride. She was 15. She went to Melbourne for a 'holiday' (abortion) & at 35, committed suicide due to the trauma.

      Mike Oz. I have corrected your fictitious statements before. Are you that thick you cannot learn?
      the police in Victoria were 82% Irish and most were decent family men with many children who were well respected in their small communities as they kept them safe for the Kelly scourge. The Royal Commission of 1881 into Victoria police found the police acted properly in dealing with the extensive criminal enterprise of Ned Kelly.
      As a result of the Royal Commission, NO superintendents were sacked. Supt Hare and Nicolson were both promoted to be Police Magistrates.
      No other officers were demoted, sacked, or forcefully retired.
      The RC also found NO corruption. Ask Mike to present evidence of corruption, and he goes to water, as he is just making it up.
      Kate Kelly was NOT raped by police. She made up that fiction some 10 months after Fitzpatrick went to the Kelly home to arrest Dan Kelly for horse stealing.
      After Ned Kelly was captured, he stated that Fitzpatrick did not go near his sister.

      NOT TRUE. That document was part of a report written in 2007 for the Police Integrity Commission (now defunct), by a Kelly fan, and it was NOT TRUE in any sense. It appeared in a report that was on the Victorian IBAC site, and I had it removed from the IBAC website because I proved to IBAC it was made up rubbish.
      In that RC the word 'corrupt' is not mentioned anywhere in any questions, answers or recommendations. No corruption was found with the police in NE Victoria.
      The RC stated that the police acted properly in dealing with the Kelly's, and they were NOT harassed.
      As far as the report goes, let me inform you. The Victorian government rejected almost all the RC recommendations.
      1. Chief Commissioner Standish retired 6 months before the RC even began. The report that it ended his career is incorrect.
      2. No senior police careers were ended. Supt Hare & Nicolson were re-instated and a few weeks later were both promoted to be Police Magistrates.
      3. Supt Sadleir was recommended to be removed to the bottom of the seniority list. He retained his position.
      4. Det Ward was recommended to be removed to the bottom of the seniority list. He was moved back one position.
      5. Sgt Steele was recommended to be broken to the ranks. He retained his rank and position as the OC Wangaratta, and retired many years later.

It may also be mentioned that the charge of persecution of the Kelly family by the members of the police force has been frequently urged in extenuation of the crimes of the outlaws; but, after careful examination, your Commissioners have arrived at the conclusion that the police, in their dealings with the Kellys and their relations, were simply desirous of discharging their duty conscientiously; and that no evidence has been adduced to support the allegation that either the outlaws or their friends were subjected to persecution or unnecessary annoyance at the hands of the police."

    No coincidence that much of this happened a few decades after Australia's second only open rebellion against the establishment, the Eureka Stockade in 1854. Most real Aussies know what happened there and how a large group of miners stood up to a police force and government that had tried to capitalise on their hard work by introducing a License tax.. It was known that police and officialdom not only ran the grog shops but also the brothels.
    The Chinese miners group was treated really badly to the point where their places of worship were burned and ruined with little done by police to come up with answers.
    So much hatred of a corrupt regime and its foot soldiers festered for the years after and these revolutionists had had a gutfull. The police were lackies for the gentry and it is no wonder that subsequent commissions and investigations found little wrongdoing by them in the Kelly's case. There are other minor cases at this time and it is thought that a larger revolutionary unit was in the making. Clearly there was persecution of the plebs.
