1
00:00:05,379 --> 00:00:09,319
Over 21 years, 28 young
people went through our hands.
2
00:00:09,379 --> 00:00:10,639
Why did you do that?
3
00:00:10,699 --> 00:00:11,879
I love children.
4
00:00:13,539 --> 00:00:15,359
Once she became the leader
of the cult
5
00:00:15,419 --> 00:00:17,559
and could get whatever she wanted,
6
00:00:17,619 --> 00:00:20,319
one thing that she wanted
was lots of little children.
7
00:00:21,379 --> 00:00:24,359
She was preparing
us for when the time happens,
8
00:00:24,419 --> 00:00:27,879
to re-educate the world,
what's left of it.
9
00:00:27,939 --> 00:00:29,879
How many are your natural children?
10
00:00:29,939 --> 00:00:31,279
There were eight or nine.
11
00:00:31,339 --> 00:00:33,319
We never told them they weren't ours.
12
00:00:33,379 --> 00:00:36,199
We were all children who had
no identity whatsoever.
13
00:00:36,259 --> 00:00:37,999
They were stolen children.
14
00:00:38,059 --> 00:00:41,039
Phony adoptions that were organised
by sect members.
15
00:00:41,099 --> 00:00:43,039
I'm wondering if you've got any
comment to make now
16
00:00:43,099 --> 00:00:44,359
about the children?
17
00:00:45,779 --> 00:00:48,239
Shots are being fired
through windows.
18
00:00:48,299 --> 00:00:50,119
Car tyres are being slashed.
19
00:00:50,179 --> 00:00:51,519
There are death threats.
20
00:00:51,579 --> 00:00:55,399
Aunty Anne sucked as much money out
of people as she possibly could.
21
00:00:55,459 --> 00:00:58,679
Yesterday, seven members
of Anne Hamilton-Byrne's sect
22
00:00:58,739 --> 00:01:00,799
pleaded guilty of defrauding
the Commonwealth...
23
00:01:00,859 --> 00:01:04,439
I know that Muktananda
practiced black magic.
24
00:01:04,499 --> 00:01:07,639
That's why Anne was there -
to learn more about it.
25
00:01:08,499 --> 00:01:11,839
There so many bizarre stories
about who she was.
26
00:01:11,899 --> 00:01:15,079
I didn't even know that Aunty Anne
had another name.
27
00:01:16,939 --> 00:01:19,679
# Waiting for redemption
28
00:01:19,739 --> 00:01:24,319
# Like a dog expecting their reward
29
00:01:24,379 --> 00:01:28,799
# Is this
the endless void of nothing
30
00:01:28,859 --> 00:01:32,879
# Or the coming of the Lord?
31
00:01:33,979 --> 00:01:38,159
# Come on, give me a sign
32
00:01:38,219 --> 00:01:42,079
# Show me my love is real
33
00:01:42,139 --> 00:01:47,199
# Oh, Saint Valentine
34
00:01:47,259 --> 00:01:51,999
# Is this part of the deal? #
35
00:01:59,539 --> 00:02:01,039
When I ran away,
36
00:02:01,099 --> 00:02:05,479
I felt a lot of grief and a lot of
heartache and a lot of guilt,
37
00:02:05,539 --> 00:02:07,919
for leaving the kids
in that situation.
38
00:02:09,939 --> 00:02:13,039
I actually went in with the police
when the raid happened
39
00:02:13,099 --> 00:02:15,239
so that the children realised
that it was OK.
40
00:02:16,939 --> 00:02:19,839
I remember my heart pumping
the whole time and thinking,
41
00:02:19,899 --> 00:02:22,119
"God, how are the children
going to look at me?"
42
00:02:22,179 --> 00:02:24,319
They're taking us somewhere!
43
00:02:24,379 --> 00:02:26,479
It'll break Mum and Dad's heart!
44
00:02:26,539 --> 00:02:28,239
We were ushered out quite quickly,
45
00:02:28,299 --> 00:02:33,439
out of the house and up to the bus
at the end of our driveway.
46
00:02:34,339 --> 00:02:35,439
And then it's all go.
47
00:02:35,499 --> 00:02:36,759
We're being driven away,
48
00:02:36,819 --> 00:02:39,639
and I remember
as we go down the road,
49
00:02:39,699 --> 00:02:41,439
I think it began to dawn on me -
50
00:02:41,499 --> 00:02:44,719
this was actually the end of it.
51
00:02:44,779 --> 00:02:47,359
I was going to do everything
I could to never go back.
52
00:02:48,859 --> 00:02:50,159
At the weekend,
53
00:02:50,219 --> 00:02:52,959
six children were seized from
a property owned by The Family.
54
00:02:53,019 --> 00:02:55,359
Five of the children have appeared
in a Melbourne Children's Court
55
00:02:55,419 --> 00:02:58,119
under care
and protection applications.
56
00:03:10,179 --> 00:03:14,479
Perhaps a week after they had
been rescued from Lake Eildon,
57
00:03:14,539 --> 00:03:17,519
I went to Allambie
to meet the children.
58
00:03:20,419 --> 00:03:21,959
I remember walking into the room,
59
00:03:22,019 --> 00:03:24,079
and there was just
this enormous buzz.
60
00:03:26,379 --> 00:03:29,079
It was as if
the children were birds
61
00:03:29,139 --> 00:03:31,239
that had been freed
from an iron cage.
62
00:03:31,299 --> 00:03:34,159
They were just totally in flight.
63
00:03:38,339 --> 00:03:41,039
I remember things
like being able to do the dishes,
64
00:03:41,099 --> 00:03:43,359
and this was exciting and wonderful.
65
00:03:43,419 --> 00:03:45,559
You know, being able to go
and get food whenever I wanted.
66
00:03:45,619 --> 00:03:46,999
Being able to learn to ride a bike.
67
00:03:47,059 --> 00:03:51,599
We'd all have dinner together and
laugh and lots of food and watch TV.
68
00:03:52,539 --> 00:03:54,999
They said, "You can eat
as much as you want,
69
00:03:55,059 --> 00:03:58,559
and...well, I said, "My stomach's
only a certain size".
70
00:04:01,619 --> 00:04:04,639
There were a team of people
working with the children -
71
00:04:04,699 --> 00:04:08,559
police, medical people,
and myself as a counsellor.
72
00:04:10,499 --> 00:04:13,559
I was asked to work
with those 10 children
73
00:04:13,619 --> 00:04:15,679
to identify who they really were,
74
00:04:15,739 --> 00:04:16,959
because they'd grown up believing
75
00:04:17,019 --> 00:04:18,159
that they were all
76
00:04:18,219 --> 00:04:20,599
the children of Anne Hamilton-Byrne
and Bill Hamilton-Byrne.
77
00:04:22,459 --> 00:04:27,119
There were barbecues and outings
and trips to Luna Park.
78
00:04:27,179 --> 00:04:29,719
We reached out to the children
from our hearts.
79
00:04:30,859 --> 00:04:33,719
But as I sat down one-to-one
with the children...
80
00:04:35,019 --> 00:04:36,119
..I realised
81
00:04:36,179 --> 00:04:40,039
that there was some pretty dark
stuff that they were dealing with.
82
00:04:42,339 --> 00:04:44,319
All that you've known
is suddenly removed,
83
00:04:44,379 --> 00:04:46,279
and you're looking
for a foundation.
84
00:04:46,339 --> 00:04:47,999
You're looking for things
that are familiar.
85
00:04:48,059 --> 00:04:52,519
You're trying to find things
that are solid.
86
00:04:52,579 --> 00:04:53,879
Trust was a big issue.
87
00:04:54,739 --> 00:04:56,839
Could we really trust
these policemen
88
00:04:56,899 --> 00:05:00,999
and these...other people that we've
never seen before in our lives,
89
00:05:01,059 --> 00:05:02,559
that they were going to
look after us,
90
00:05:02,619 --> 00:05:05,799
and...make Eildon go away,
91
00:05:05,859 --> 00:05:07,559
you know,
make Anne and Bill go away,
92
00:05:07,619 --> 00:05:09,759
make the aunties go away?
93
00:05:12,579 --> 00:05:15,879
They had grown up with
a perverse fairy-tale.
94
00:05:16,819 --> 00:05:19,839
They had been systematically
deprived of the truth
95
00:05:19,899 --> 00:05:21,759
for their entire lives.
96
00:05:28,899 --> 00:05:32,919
It was quite a tangled web
of birth certificates,
97
00:05:32,979 --> 00:05:34,719
deed poll name changes,
98
00:05:34,779 --> 00:05:37,319
and affidavits in regard to adoption
99
00:05:37,379 --> 00:05:38,679
that I had to sort through.
100
00:05:40,939 --> 00:05:43,399
Once I had the records
gathered together,
101
00:05:43,459 --> 00:05:48,599
I then went back and sat down
individually with the child.
102
00:05:49,939 --> 00:05:55,439
I was absolutely devastated
that I wasn't who I thought I was.
103
00:05:55,499 --> 00:05:58,439
I was very devastated
by the betrayal, I think.
104
00:06:00,939 --> 00:06:03,799
I went down to the Births
and Deaths and asked them,
105
00:06:03,859 --> 00:06:06,999
"Can I please have the birth
certificate of Sarah Hamilton-Byrne?"
106
00:06:07,059 --> 00:06:08,639
and I got back this piece of paper
107
00:06:08,699 --> 00:06:11,799
saying, "There is no such person
as Sarah Hamilton-Byrne."
108
00:06:12,779 --> 00:06:18,199
And I thought,
"Oh. OK. Well, who am I?"
109
00:06:21,699 --> 00:06:24,719
The only way that
we could, at that point in time,
110
00:06:24,779 --> 00:06:29,519
establish the true identity of the
children, or these young people,
111
00:06:29,579 --> 00:06:33,759
was to try and locate their
natural mother and natural father...
112
00:06:35,099 --> 00:06:37,279
..and then take blood samples.
113
00:06:39,539 --> 00:06:41,759
It was the one of the first times
in Victoria
114
00:06:41,819 --> 00:06:44,999
where DNA was used to match blood
to prove parentage.
115
00:06:55,459 --> 00:06:57,879
Just imagine saying to somebody...
116
00:06:57,939 --> 00:07:00,159
Fancy saying to a woman,
"Do you remember giving birth?
117
00:07:00,219 --> 00:07:05,639
Do you remember that
in this year, particular year...
118
00:07:05,699 --> 00:07:07,479
"..did you give birth?"
119
00:07:08,739 --> 00:07:12,319
Straightaway you're bringing up, in
some cases, some traumatic memories.
120
00:07:13,779 --> 00:07:20,079
And then trying to track down the
father and then saying to this guy,
121
00:07:20,139 --> 00:07:21,479
"I think you've got a child."
122
00:07:21,539 --> 00:07:23,239
"What?"
123
00:07:23,299 --> 00:07:24,559
Bang!
124
00:07:26,659 --> 00:07:29,519
It didn't leave a very nice taste
in your mouth, but you had to do it.
125
00:07:43,339 --> 00:07:45,279
In the '70s,
we didn't talk about it.
126
00:07:46,099 --> 00:07:51,479
Unmarried mothers, young girls,
16, 17,
127
00:07:51,539 --> 00:07:53,039
who fell pregnant,
128
00:07:53,099 --> 00:07:56,079
often weren't seen
for months on end,
129
00:07:56,139 --> 00:07:59,959
and then they would appear back in
their normal lives and communities
130
00:08:00,019 --> 00:08:03,319
and they would have
gone through their pregnancy.
131
00:08:03,379 --> 00:08:05,999
No-one knew
that they had given birth,
132
00:08:06,059 --> 00:08:08,679
but the child had been passed over.
133
00:08:11,379 --> 00:08:15,199
When women went to the
hospital then, if they were single,
134
00:08:15,259 --> 00:08:17,319
and they go
for their first appointment,
135
00:08:17,379 --> 00:08:19,599
their card was marked with an "A",
136
00:08:19,659 --> 00:08:23,079
which meant they were to see the
Almoner, who was the social worker.
137
00:08:23,139 --> 00:08:24,879
And from that moment,
138
00:08:24,939 --> 00:08:27,359
the assumption was that the child
was available for adoption.
139
00:08:29,419 --> 00:08:34,919
If they tried during that time
to question the notion of adoption,
140
00:08:34,979 --> 00:08:36,559
they were shut down.
141
00:08:36,619 --> 00:08:38,439
They were basically told that,
142
00:08:38,499 --> 00:08:40,599
"There's no way
you can keep this child."
143
00:08:42,019 --> 00:08:43,119
In the late '60s,
144
00:08:43,179 --> 00:08:46,759
there wasn't supporting mothers'
pension and things like that.
145
00:08:47,579 --> 00:08:49,879
And particularly if you came
from a religious family,
146
00:08:49,939 --> 00:08:52,879
it was still a great shame
to have a kid out of wedlock.
147
00:08:54,019 --> 00:08:59,279
My biological mother was made
to sign an adoption form...
148
00:08:59,739 --> 00:09:04,479
..and then during my birth,
a pillow was put over her head.
149
00:09:04,539 --> 00:09:06,999
She was given major tranquillisers,
150
00:09:07,059 --> 00:09:11,119
and as soon as I was born,
I was taken away instantly.
151
00:09:11,179 --> 00:09:14,199
She wasn't even allowed
to see...look at me.
152
00:09:15,899 --> 00:09:18,999
Most mothers who talk
about this say something like,
153
00:09:19,059 --> 00:09:22,119
"I heard a cry,
then I heard a door slam."
154
00:09:22,179 --> 00:09:24,119
And that's the child
being taken out.
155
00:09:24,179 --> 00:09:25,519
The idea was,
156
00:09:25,579 --> 00:09:28,519
if you see the child, it'll be
even harder to part with it.
157
00:09:31,019 --> 00:09:33,399
This couple have been
waiting 11 months
158
00:09:33,459 --> 00:09:34,999
to adopt a baby boy.
159
00:09:35,059 --> 00:09:37,359
Today is the first time
they will see him.
160
00:09:39,379 --> 00:09:41,079
Now they must wait patiently
161
00:09:41,139 --> 00:09:44,399
for the fulfilment of
the 30-day consent period.
162
00:09:44,459 --> 00:09:47,759
If the mother of the baby
decides to revoke her decision,
163
00:09:47,819 --> 00:09:49,719
this couple
would have to give him up,
164
00:09:49,779 --> 00:09:52,599
but this distressing
situation rarely happens.
165
00:09:54,139 --> 00:09:57,559
This little illegitimate bundle
will become legitimised.
166
00:09:58,659 --> 00:10:01,879
By adoption, this child will escape
the handicap of its birth.
167
00:10:02,739 --> 00:10:03,919
His real mother
168
00:10:03,979 --> 00:10:06,559
will almost certainly
never set eyes on him again,
169
00:10:06,619 --> 00:10:09,079
and with all the love he can expect
from his new parents,
170
00:10:09,139 --> 00:10:11,319
he may never feel the loss.
171
00:10:11,379 --> 00:10:12,719
In this case,
172
00:10:12,779 --> 00:10:16,279
one woman's loss could turn out
to be somebody else's gain.
173
00:10:21,339 --> 00:10:24,399
John Mackay was
one of those who adopted a child
174
00:10:24,459 --> 00:10:27,159
and let Anne Hamilton-Byrne
look after him.
175
00:10:27,219 --> 00:10:31,919
Anne and Bill wanted to construct
a family of these children
176
00:10:31,979 --> 00:10:33,559
to rear them as a family -
177
00:10:33,619 --> 00:10:37,479
uh...I think for very good
psychological reasons.
178
00:10:37,539 --> 00:10:41,479
They've been able to provide
a stable environment
179
00:10:41,539 --> 00:10:42,919
with a lot of love.
180
00:10:42,979 --> 00:10:44,599
Something that you
weren't able to do?
181
00:10:44,659 --> 00:10:46,439
That's true. I wasn't able.
182
00:10:46,499 --> 00:10:50,799
I wanted to ask him if he knew,
after he handed that child over,
183
00:10:50,859 --> 00:10:52,359
what had happened to that child,
184
00:10:52,419 --> 00:10:54,639
the brutality it'd experienced.
185
00:10:54,699 --> 00:10:56,519
Marie Mohr's my name, Dr Mackay.
186
00:10:56,579 --> 00:10:58,519
I'm wondering if you've got
any comment to make now
187
00:10:58,579 --> 00:11:00,119
about what happened
to the children...
188
00:11:00,179 --> 00:11:01,359
Why won't you have...
189
00:11:01,419 --> 00:11:03,799
Is that all you've got
to say, Dr Mackay?
190
00:11:03,859 --> 00:11:06,039
After what you put
those kids through?
191
00:11:06,859 --> 00:11:08,599
There's no need for that, Dr Mackay!
192
00:11:11,899 --> 00:11:14,399
You raised them under
the name Hamilton-Byrne?
193
00:11:14,459 --> 00:11:17,679
You arranged for
passports in that name.
194
00:11:17,739 --> 00:11:18,679
We did.
195
00:11:18,739 --> 00:11:20,439
Even though that was
not their legal name?
196
00:11:20,499 --> 00:11:24,039
Well, yes, but we did it honourably,
we thought. Quite honourably.
197
00:11:24,099 --> 00:11:26,599
Why? What was the purpose of it?
198
00:11:26,659 --> 00:11:29,919
Because it's easier, if you're
going overseas, into England,
199
00:11:29,979 --> 00:11:33,439
to get treatment for the children
if they are all of one family...
200
00:11:33,499 --> 00:11:35,079
Yes, they are of one family.
201
00:11:35,139 --> 00:11:36,919
We wanted them to be family...
You see...
202
00:11:36,979 --> 00:11:38,199
..a loved family.
203
00:11:40,779 --> 00:11:42,159
Yes, they are of one family.
204
00:11:42,219 --> 00:11:44,359
We wanted them to be a family...
You see...
205
00:11:44,419 --> 00:11:45,519
..a loved family.
206
00:11:47,339 --> 00:11:49,359
When you're investigating a crime,
207
00:11:49,419 --> 00:11:50,879
you've got to keep an open mind.
208
00:11:51,859 --> 00:11:55,759
But as the investigation went on,
209
00:11:55,819 --> 00:12:01,199
in my mind she was becoming
more clinical, more cold.
210
00:12:02,339 --> 00:12:04,879
It was about Anne, and no-one else.
211
00:12:09,339 --> 00:12:12,759
There were so many bizarre stories
about who she was.
212
00:12:12,819 --> 00:12:14,839
We had to drill down
and get the facts.
213
00:12:16,139 --> 00:12:18,559
That's part of the chase,
establishing,
214
00:12:18,619 --> 00:12:22,519
"Who am I actually dealing with?"
215
00:12:22,579 --> 00:12:24,479
Well, I didn't know anything
about her background
216
00:12:24,539 --> 00:12:26,479
until the late '80s,
217
00:12:26,539 --> 00:12:29,279
when all the sort of the news reports
started coming out.
218
00:12:29,339 --> 00:12:32,599
And...I didn't even know that
Aunty Anne had another name.
219
00:12:32,659 --> 00:12:34,599
I think it was Evelyn or something,
wasn't it?
220
00:12:37,779 --> 00:12:41,559
She told us that she came
from some royal family.
221
00:12:42,859 --> 00:12:46,599
We, as children, thought
she was beyond the Queen of England.
222
00:12:46,659 --> 00:12:50,039
She'd even spent time
with the Queen having cups of tea.
223
00:12:50,099 --> 00:12:52,639
She was a singer,
she was an opera singer.
224
00:12:52,699 --> 00:12:54,679
We had a castle
somewhere in Europe
225
00:12:54,739 --> 00:12:57,239
and, you know,
quite la-di-dah, really.
226
00:12:58,339 --> 00:13:01,559
Anne was the direct...
she was Jesus incarnate,
227
00:13:01,619 --> 00:13:03,039
the descendant of God,
228
00:13:03,099 --> 00:13:05,759
and we were descended
from the House of David,
229
00:13:05,819 --> 00:13:08,159
which apparently
was Jesus's bloodline.
230
00:13:21,339 --> 00:13:22,479
When we were older
231
00:13:22,539 --> 00:13:26,159
and we actually found out she was
a railway yard worker's daughter...
232
00:13:27,659 --> 00:13:31,279
..and her mother was a mental
patient in a hospital.
233
00:13:31,339 --> 00:13:33,159
It was really quite a sad story.
234
00:13:35,059 --> 00:13:37,759
I think that she was trying
to portray this perfect wife
235
00:13:37,819 --> 00:13:39,479
and this perfect family
236
00:13:39,539 --> 00:13:41,359
and something that she didn't have.
237
00:13:45,139 --> 00:13:47,999
The father was absent
a lot of the time -
238
00:13:48,059 --> 00:13:51,239
Anne was placed in Brighton
Orphanage a couple of times.
239
00:13:51,299 --> 00:13:54,079
She came from
an extremely impoverished background
240
00:13:54,139 --> 00:13:56,439
and she was put into
a very rich suburb,
241
00:13:56,499 --> 00:13:59,519
where she could sort of see
very privileged children
242
00:13:59,579 --> 00:14:02,879
walking past
to their private schools,
243
00:14:02,939 --> 00:14:06,919
and I think she had fantasies
that she'd get that somehow.
244
00:14:10,579 --> 00:14:12,639
One thing you learn as a detective
245
00:14:12,699 --> 00:14:14,799
is that official documents don't lie.
246
00:14:16,699 --> 00:14:20,079
We turned to the service record of
Anne's first husband, Lionel Harris,
247
00:14:20,139 --> 00:14:22,599
who was a corporal
in the Australian Air Force,
248
00:14:22,659 --> 00:14:23,799
for information.
249
00:14:36,899 --> 00:14:39,879
We discovered that two years
after Judith was born,
250
00:14:39,939 --> 00:14:41,679
Lionel applied to leave
the Air Force
251
00:14:41,739 --> 00:14:44,159
because he was worried
about his wife's mental health.
252
00:14:45,939 --> 00:14:48,719
He said she was very abnormal
to her child,
253
00:14:48,779 --> 00:14:50,759
and her behaviour was very strange.
254
00:14:52,779 --> 00:14:56,199
In the only official diagnosis
we have of Evelyn's mental health,
255
00:14:56,259 --> 00:14:59,679
her doctor described her as
depressed, and neglecting Judith.
256
00:15:01,539 --> 00:15:04,879
He feared she'd inherited
her mother's mental instability,
257
00:15:04,939 --> 00:15:06,439
and may give way.
258
00:15:19,179 --> 00:15:20,439
Two years later,
259
00:15:20,499 --> 00:15:23,359
Lionel is a car salesman
and they've moved to Sydney.
260
00:15:56,019 --> 00:16:00,159
In 1955, a single woman
couldn't adopt a child.
261
00:16:00,219 --> 00:16:03,599
It seemed that Evelyn's dreams
of a larger family were over.
262
00:16:16,579 --> 00:16:18,399
But Evelyn didn't give up.
263
00:16:22,179 --> 00:16:25,399
She had cosmetic surgery
and elocution lessons
264
00:16:25,459 --> 00:16:27,319
and she changed her name.
265
00:16:27,379 --> 00:16:30,879
A new person - Anne -
emerged from the tragedy.
266
00:16:32,579 --> 00:16:36,599
Once she became the leader of a cult
and could get whatever she wanted,
267
00:16:36,659 --> 00:16:39,559
one thing that she wanted
was lots of little children,
268
00:16:39,619 --> 00:16:42,759
lot of perfect little children
in perfect little dresses
269
00:16:42,819 --> 00:16:44,319
with perfect little blond hair.
270
00:16:50,899 --> 00:16:53,479
Well, tell us about her
pregnancy clothes in detail.
271
00:17:03,099 --> 00:17:04,959
Just explain it to me.
272
00:17:32,939 --> 00:17:36,279
Anne told me one night that three
of the children were her triplets,
273
00:17:36,339 --> 00:17:37,879
that she'd had them.
274
00:17:37,939 --> 00:17:40,199
She's just looked me straight
in the face and said,
275
00:17:40,259 --> 00:17:41,519
"I had these three children"
276
00:17:41,579 --> 00:17:43,879
and I'm thinking, "You didn't
have those three children.
277
00:17:43,939 --> 00:17:47,439
"You know...you must think I'm
a bloody idiot to tell me that."
278
00:17:49,459 --> 00:17:51,839
But I just said, "Oh, yes, OK,"
agreed with her.
279
00:17:51,899 --> 00:17:54,599
She's not somebody you argue with.
280
00:17:57,339 --> 00:18:01,359
Anne Hamilton-Byrne's age
meant they couldn't be her children.
281
00:18:02,419 --> 00:18:03,719
She'd had a hysterectomy
282
00:18:03,779 --> 00:18:06,199
years before some of these
children were born.
283
00:18:06,259 --> 00:18:10,119
It wasn't difficult, if people
had actually questioned it.
284
00:18:13,339 --> 00:18:16,199
The truth is,
we weren't their children.
285
00:18:17,339 --> 00:18:21,239
So while they created that construct,
we weren't.
286
00:18:26,979 --> 00:18:31,079
We were all children
who had no identity whatsoever.
287
00:18:31,139 --> 00:18:33,479
Didn't know our own parents, really.
288
00:18:35,739 --> 00:18:42,639
Our identities were carved out
by one person to suit them.
289
00:18:44,179 --> 00:18:46,199
My dad was Bill's son.
290
00:18:48,099 --> 00:18:52,439
So that obviously Bill was not
my father, but my grandfather.
291
00:18:53,459 --> 00:18:56,039
My mother and father met
in Newhaven,
292
00:18:56,099 --> 00:18:58,519
which is a mental institution.
293
00:18:58,579 --> 00:19:01,199
Dad considered
he was unable to look after me...
294
00:19:02,099 --> 00:19:05,679
..and of course Bill said
that he would be able to.
295
00:19:10,219 --> 00:19:13,399
I feel so, so sorry for my dad...
296
00:19:14,659 --> 00:19:16,079
..because he really had
hardly any...
297
00:19:16,139 --> 00:19:17,759
..he really didn't have
a choice in the matter.
298
00:19:52,819 --> 00:19:54,559
Most of the time in my career,
299
00:19:54,619 --> 00:19:59,319
I actually didn't take stuff home
with me, but this case I did.
300
00:19:59,379 --> 00:20:02,879
My wife actually became very
involved with the kids as well.
301
00:20:02,939 --> 00:20:08,159
It's almost like they...become
part of your family,
302
00:20:08,219 --> 00:20:09,519
I guess.
303
00:20:11,659 --> 00:20:13,919
I remember as a 15-year-old
304
00:20:13,979 --> 00:20:17,439
the surreal experience
of knowing Anne wasn't my mother.
305
00:20:17,499 --> 00:20:19,319
And then...who was?
306
00:20:20,699 --> 00:20:25,119
They speak of winning the lotto...
think of the exact opposite.
307
00:20:26,339 --> 00:20:27,799
It was Aunty Joy.
308
00:20:35,339 --> 00:20:36,479
Yeah, it wasn't good.
309
00:20:38,579 --> 00:20:42,519
She said, "Listen,
you're an embarrassment to me.
310
00:20:42,579 --> 00:20:45,719
"Don't bother turning up on the door.
I'll close the door on your face."
311
00:20:45,779 --> 00:20:47,719
So that terminated
312
00:20:47,779 --> 00:20:52,719
any possibility of a
mother-son relationship very quickly.
313
00:20:52,779 --> 00:20:55,159
Are you a follower of
Mrs Hamilton-Byrne's?
314
00:20:55,219 --> 00:20:57,159
I'm a friend of
Mrs Hamilton-Byrne's.
315
00:20:57,219 --> 00:20:58,679
Do you believe she is a teacher?
316
00:20:58,739 --> 00:21:01,959
I believe she is just
a great friend of mine, all right?
317
00:21:02,019 --> 00:21:05,399
I was adopted legally
by Trish and Don Webb,
318
00:21:05,459 --> 00:21:08,439
and then once they got me,
they handed me over to Anne.
319
00:21:08,499 --> 00:21:11,359
And I know for a fact that my mother
actually started looking for me
320
00:21:11,419 --> 00:21:12,999
when she married my stepfather.
321
00:21:13,059 --> 00:21:14,639
So she had been looking for me
322
00:21:14,699 --> 00:21:17,919
probably a year
after I had been adopted out.
323
00:21:17,979 --> 00:21:23,039
And she tells me that it was like
that something was missing.
324
00:21:26,339 --> 00:21:29,559
At the birth, we've got a doctor
who's a sect member,
325
00:21:29,619 --> 00:21:31,919
a midwife that's a sect member,
326
00:21:31,979 --> 00:21:35,359
a social worker that's a sect member.
327
00:21:35,419 --> 00:21:38,039
And the head of the sect
standing outside the hospital.
328
00:21:39,019 --> 00:21:42,159
And within a period
of 15, 20 minutes from birth,
329
00:21:42,219 --> 00:21:44,639
child born, child taken.
330
00:21:48,499 --> 00:21:50,439
I was born
at Royal Women's Hospital,
331
00:21:50,499 --> 00:21:52,839
and Aunty Anne had
all the people working there.
332
00:21:52,899 --> 00:21:56,039
That's how she obtained
some of us kids.
333
00:21:57,699 --> 00:21:59,599
I was just handed over.
334
00:22:01,179 --> 00:22:04,239
I'm sure my mum was coerced
to give me up,
335
00:22:04,299 --> 00:22:06,999
and I don't believe
that she really wanted to,
336
00:22:07,059 --> 00:22:10,159
because why else would you revoke
the adoption three times?
337
00:22:11,339 --> 00:22:13,319
And then they can't find me.
338
00:22:13,379 --> 00:22:15,759
The legal system goes,
"Where is this baby?"
339
00:22:17,739 --> 00:22:20,799
I mean, I knew Roland
wasn't my biological brother.
340
00:22:20,859 --> 00:22:24,679
I was told
that Roland was to be presented
341
00:22:24,739 --> 00:22:27,799
as the child of Don Webb
and Elizabeth Whitaker.
342
00:22:28,939 --> 00:22:31,199
And I was also told
at the very outset
343
00:22:31,259 --> 00:22:34,879
that if Roland ever discovered
that he was adopted,
344
00:22:34,939 --> 00:22:36,039
he would kill himself,
345
00:22:36,099 --> 00:22:39,239
so I...and I guess I believed that.
346
00:22:39,299 --> 00:22:41,519
So I was very, very careful
347
00:22:41,579 --> 00:22:43,879
never ever, ever to tell Roland
he was adopted.
348
00:22:47,139 --> 00:22:51,119
Lex de Man gave me the option
to leave The Family...
349
00:22:52,139 --> 00:22:54,479
..for me to become
a ward of the state.
350
00:22:55,179 --> 00:22:59,919
So I had to make a decision then
and there what I wanted to do.
351
00:23:01,339 --> 00:23:04,399
And I had to make the decision
to stick with my family...
352
00:23:05,459 --> 00:23:08,919
..because I couldn't see a future,
being taken away.
353
00:23:10,179 --> 00:23:13,719
My loyalty was with my mum and dad
and Aunty Anne,
354
00:23:13,779 --> 00:23:15,599
and that was very strong.
355
00:23:21,819 --> 00:23:24,239
Roland wasn't the only child
we were worried about.
356
00:23:25,499 --> 00:23:29,399
Anne and her followers had bought up
a lot of the houses in Ferny Creek.
357
00:23:30,739 --> 00:23:32,639
Many of them had swapped partners,
358
00:23:32,699 --> 00:23:35,159
so they were living with children
who weren't their own.
359
00:23:37,339 --> 00:23:40,999
There were allegations of rampant
drug use and harsh discipline.
360
00:23:45,739 --> 00:23:48,879
My mother gave birth to me
at 16...
361
00:23:50,099 --> 00:23:53,279
..so you've got one child
looking after a baby
362
00:23:53,339 --> 00:23:57,199
with absolutely no support
from her own family.
363
00:23:59,619 --> 00:24:02,159
Going forwards to 1970,
364
00:24:02,219 --> 00:24:05,719
my mother had married one
of the cult members.
365
00:24:05,779 --> 00:24:09,719
I came home from school one day.
I was about 10.
366
00:24:09,779 --> 00:24:13,319
My mother was...almost in a coma.
367
00:24:13,379 --> 00:24:16,439
I couldn't rouse her,
and I became very concerned.
368
00:24:17,979 --> 00:24:22,639
I called the neighbours, and then
Elizabeth Whitaker was sent up.
369
00:24:22,699 --> 00:24:25,639
Elizabeth Whitaker
was a registered nurse,
370
00:24:25,699 --> 00:24:28,719
one of Anne Hamilton-Byrne's
lieutenants.
371
00:24:33,059 --> 00:24:37,079
I was told that my mother
had been put in a hospital
372
00:24:37,139 --> 00:24:40,359
and that it may be some time
before I see her.
373
00:24:42,539 --> 00:24:48,199
Elizabeth presented
as a very friendly, caring woman
374
00:24:48,259 --> 00:24:51,399
and she said, "Oh, look, you know,
you can come and stay with me."
375
00:25:00,779 --> 00:25:03,759
I was just told, "Well, you know,
she's a bit unwell,"
376
00:25:03,819 --> 00:25:06,559
and, "She's not a very good mother,
377
00:25:06,619 --> 00:25:09,359
"and, look, you know, you've got
all these lovely people here,
378
00:25:09,419 --> 00:25:11,279
"all these aunties and uncles,
379
00:25:11,339 --> 00:25:13,159
"and they're nurses and doctors.
380
00:25:13,219 --> 00:25:15,159
"They'll look after you.
You'll be fine."
381
00:25:17,739 --> 00:25:19,559
About a year after that,
382
00:25:19,619 --> 00:25:21,599
round about 1971...
383
00:25:21,659 --> 00:25:25,999
..pulled me aside one day
and he said,
384
00:25:26,059 --> 00:25:29,159
"I'm going to give you a healing
on the weekend".
385
00:25:30,339 --> 00:25:32,999
And he said, "I'm going to put
a scarf round your head.
386
00:25:33,059 --> 00:25:35,279
"I'm going to give you psilocybin,
387
00:25:35,339 --> 00:25:37,359
and you're going
to see pretty colours."
388
00:25:41,019 --> 00:25:43,399
Then I was in
a completely different world.
389
00:25:46,579 --> 00:25:49,199
I felt pressure on my chest
390
00:25:49,259 --> 00:25:51,719
and I felt hands on me,
391
00:25:51,779 --> 00:25:53,679
down towards by genital area,
392
00:25:53,739 --> 00:25:55,239
then sort of around the back.
393
00:25:56,339 --> 00:26:00,239
For the next few days,
I had bleeding from my anus,
394
00:26:00,299 --> 00:26:02,319
and I had a lot of pain
round that area.
395
00:26:03,859 --> 00:26:10,119
I know that he sexually assaulted me
in some way, form or shape.
396
00:26:18,339 --> 00:26:21,959
I don't think at first
that anyone in the authorities
397
00:26:22,019 --> 00:26:24,559
realised the complexities
of the sect.
398
00:26:24,619 --> 00:26:26,399
And so...they thought
399
00:26:26,459 --> 00:26:29,879
they were perhaps dealing
with a child abuse case.
400
00:26:29,939 --> 00:26:31,639
And they were,
401
00:26:31,699 --> 00:26:35,079
but I don't think they realised
the layers underneath that.
402
00:26:41,979 --> 00:26:45,359
I really don't believe
anyone knew what to do.
403
00:26:48,899 --> 00:26:50,079
This was the first time
404
00:26:50,139 --> 00:26:52,719
they had a group of X number of kids
405
00:26:52,779 --> 00:26:54,999
coming out of
a completely controlled environment,
406
00:26:55,059 --> 00:26:56,799
and trying to interface them
into the world.
407
00:27:00,899 --> 00:27:02,839
We took the girls
back to their prison.
408
00:27:03,619 --> 00:27:05,999
For them, it brought back
memories of terror.
409
00:27:06,059 --> 00:27:08,359
When we'd been naughty, they'd
lock us in the shed for the night.
410
00:27:08,419 --> 00:27:10,759
The night?
Yeah.
411
00:27:10,819 --> 00:27:12,479
Well, the police knew I knew a lot.
412
00:27:12,539 --> 00:27:14,319
So they wanted to pick my brains,
413
00:27:14,379 --> 00:27:17,679
because by then I'd done dozens
of stories on the sect...
414
00:27:18,579 --> 00:27:20,279
...spent a lot of time
with the kids.
415
00:27:21,579 --> 00:27:24,119
They became visitors to my house.
416
00:27:24,779 --> 00:27:27,359
Some of them
lived with us for years.
417
00:27:28,779 --> 00:27:31,879
I do remember one of my bosses
saying to me at one stage,
418
00:27:31,939 --> 00:27:33,919
"Are you a social worker
or a journalist?"
419
00:27:34,499 --> 00:27:37,279
And I said, "Well, at the moment,
it seems I'm a bit of both."
420
00:27:54,859 --> 00:27:56,999
When I ran away,
it was very difficult,
421
00:27:57,059 --> 00:27:59,119
'cause we weren't taught
anything about the outside world.
422
00:27:59,179 --> 00:28:00,879
I didn't even know
how to cross a road.
423
00:28:02,219 --> 00:28:03,639
I remember going to the bank
424
00:28:03,699 --> 00:28:07,799
and asking them if I could borrow
$50 to go and buy clothes,
425
00:28:07,859 --> 00:28:10,839
so...I mean, they must have
thought I was really weird.
426
00:28:10,899 --> 00:28:14,759
I was made a ward of the state,
and I struggled.
427
00:28:14,819 --> 00:28:17,999
Failed HSC, got a job,
got sacked from it.
428
00:28:18,059 --> 00:28:20,599
I'd been quite suicidal,
very depressed.
429
00:28:21,339 --> 00:28:22,839
I was starved of love.
430
00:28:23,699 --> 00:28:26,599
You open doors to things
in pursuit of that love.
431
00:28:27,379 --> 00:28:31,119
I had to be very careful
that I didn't fall into another cult.
432
00:28:33,619 --> 00:28:36,999
I was in and out of a psych unit
because I wanted to kill myself.
433
00:28:38,459 --> 00:28:40,959
And sometimes the anger
was so deep I'd be...
434
00:28:41,019 --> 00:28:43,759
..just you're standing up and you're
storming around the house going,
435
00:28:43,819 --> 00:28:45,319
"I can't calm down,
I can't calm down"
436
00:28:45,379 --> 00:28:47,319
because I just didn't know,
437
00:28:47,379 --> 00:28:50,079
and you'd stop and you'd, "Rah!"
at the floor...
438
00:28:50,139 --> 00:28:51,439
You know, you just...
439
00:28:51,499 --> 00:28:54,519
Oh! I can't actually articulate
the strength of it.
440
00:29:09,819 --> 00:29:11,799
Till you're finished?
441
00:29:23,139 --> 00:29:24,559
You could see...
442
00:29:25,859 --> 00:29:28,919
..they wanted something done
about what had happened to them,
443
00:29:28,979 --> 00:29:32,279
but you didn't really
want to expose them
444
00:29:32,339 --> 00:29:38,079
to the pressures and the trauma
of having to relive all of that
445
00:29:38,139 --> 00:29:40,439
and give evidence in a witness box.
446
00:29:40,499 --> 00:29:42,319
..beltings.
447
00:29:42,379 --> 00:29:44,959
The black three-cornered cane
was one of the most feared.
448
00:29:45,019 --> 00:29:48,279
You couldn't hear those stories
without it affecting you,
449
00:29:48,339 --> 00:29:49,879
if you had any heart at all.
450
00:29:50,579 --> 00:29:54,079
And that's why the police
did become so involved.
451
00:29:54,139 --> 00:29:55,919
They wanted justice
for those children.
452
00:29:57,579 --> 00:30:00,079
We've been blown up
all over the place now.
453
00:30:00,139 --> 00:30:01,399
You think about it -
454
00:30:01,459 --> 00:30:03,839
you've got enough brains, those
of you who are left.
455
00:30:03,899 --> 00:30:09,719
Every rebuff is a challenge,
so I'm saying to you, go forward.
456
00:30:11,939 --> 00:30:15,279
All the powers of darkness rise up
and try to overwhelm us,
457
00:30:15,339 --> 00:30:18,719
but I have done my best
and I'm still there.
458
00:30:18,779 --> 00:30:25,239
Those who are devoted to me realise
this and they are united with me.
459
00:30:25,299 --> 00:30:27,679
Many retreat back
into their darkness
460
00:30:27,739 --> 00:30:30,719
and that's what's happened
to those who have left.
461
00:30:30,779 --> 00:30:33,439
Self-interest.
Doesn't it make you sick?
462
00:30:33,499 --> 00:30:35,239
No, I'm not half nuts...
463
00:30:35,299 --> 00:30:37,119
We knew that she'd committed crimes.
464
00:30:37,179 --> 00:30:40,359
We knew that we needed
to get her back in this country.
465
00:30:40,419 --> 00:30:42,719
We knew that we had
to get her before a court,
466
00:30:42,779 --> 00:30:46,999
for everyone involved in the sect
to see that no one was above the law.
467
00:30:49,059 --> 00:30:54,079
Mum was just blindly following
everything that she said and did.
468
00:30:55,779 --> 00:30:57,879
She met Albert Baker.
469
00:30:57,939 --> 00:31:01,919
He was another sect member
and she ended up marrying him.
470
00:31:01,979 --> 00:31:04,719
Come on.
471
00:31:04,779 --> 00:31:06,959
It was really a bigamous marriage,
472
00:31:07,019 --> 00:31:10,559
because she was actually
still married to my father.
473
00:31:10,619 --> 00:31:12,239
Albert!
474
00:31:12,299 --> 00:31:14,119
Smile - you're on Candid Camera now.
475
00:31:14,179 --> 00:31:16,199
Cheerio, cheerio.
476
00:31:16,259 --> 00:31:18,759
- OK, I think that's enough of that.
- OK.
477
00:31:18,819 --> 00:31:20,919
How did Anne Hamilton-Byrne
478
00:31:20,979 --> 00:31:24,679
come to have control over the lives
of nearly 30 children?
479
00:31:24,739 --> 00:31:26,559
Well, she could never have done it
480
00:31:26,619 --> 00:31:29,759
without the grown-up members
of her so-called Family.
481
00:31:29,819 --> 00:31:31,719
This report from Marie Mohr.
482
00:31:32,339 --> 00:31:36,879
Photographer Alan Crisp,
a sect member for over a decade.
483
00:31:36,939 --> 00:31:38,319
Is Anne still your guru,
484
00:31:38,379 --> 00:31:40,679
even though you know the children
were locked away now
485
00:31:40,739 --> 00:31:42,679
Is she still your guru, Alan?
486
00:31:42,739 --> 00:31:44,839
Get lost, Marie. Get bloody lost.
487
00:31:44,899 --> 00:31:46,079
Other members include
488
00:31:46,139 --> 00:31:50,879
general practitioners Dr
Christine Fleming and Dr John Mackay.
489
00:31:52,619 --> 00:31:55,599
She targeted the people
that she wanted,
490
00:31:55,659 --> 00:31:58,039
and the people that she wanted
491
00:31:58,099 --> 00:32:02,039
had either money
or had expectations of money.
492
00:32:02,099 --> 00:32:03,439
Everyone had a job.
493
00:32:03,499 --> 00:32:08,079
But then they came home and
then she had tasks for them to do.
494
00:32:08,139 --> 00:32:11,519
And people were working,
you know, 16 hours a day,
495
00:32:11,579 --> 00:32:13,839
and working and working,
496
00:32:13,899 --> 00:32:17,119
and overworking
to the point of exhaustion.
497
00:32:17,179 --> 00:32:20,799
And nothing was ever quite right,
or never enough.
498
00:32:21,619 --> 00:32:25,479
Pretty much standard
brain-washing technique.
499
00:32:26,659 --> 00:32:29,999
Yesterday, seven members
of Anne Hamilton-Byrne's sect
500
00:32:30,059 --> 00:32:31,959
pleaded guilty of defrauding
the Commonwealth
501
00:32:32,019 --> 00:32:35,359
of a total of $195,000.
502
00:32:35,419 --> 00:32:36,639
No comment.
No comment.
503
00:32:36,699 --> 00:32:37,919
No comment.
504
00:32:37,979 --> 00:32:39,199
Three of those women,
505
00:32:39,259 --> 00:32:42,879
Helen Buchanan, Elizabeth Whitaker
and Margot Maclellan,
506
00:32:42,939 --> 00:32:45,119
were among
the women Anne Hamilton-Byrne
507
00:32:45,179 --> 00:32:46,959
ordered to look after the children
508
00:32:47,019 --> 00:32:49,639
locked away on the sect's
Lake Eildon property.
509
00:32:49,699 --> 00:32:54,719
Mum done a lot of illegal stuff
with Aunty Anne or for Aunty Anne.
510
00:32:55,619 --> 00:32:59,559
She was charged and put into prison
for social security fraud.
511
00:32:59,619 --> 00:33:01,599
She was pissed off about it,
512
00:33:01,659 --> 00:33:04,319
but Aunty Anne was her guru,
513
00:33:04,379 --> 00:33:07,399
so...stood by her, thick and thin.
514
00:33:10,339 --> 00:33:15,199
Aunty Anne sucked as much money out
of people as she possibly could.
515
00:33:15,259 --> 00:33:18,879
Anybody who joined
The Family had to pay dues.
516
00:33:18,939 --> 00:33:20,599
Money to go and do the meditation,
517
00:33:20,659 --> 00:33:21,959
money to go and do the yoga,
518
00:33:22,019 --> 00:33:26,079
money to...to fund this,
money to fund that, you know?
519
00:33:27,059 --> 00:33:30,519
Aunty Anne very rarely
put her own hands in her own pocket.
520
00:33:36,979 --> 00:33:40,399
We estimated Anne's wealth
to be around $50 million.
521
00:33:41,619 --> 00:33:42,919
To be a member of the sect,
522
00:33:42,979 --> 00:33:45,559
you had to donate part of your wages
to Anne,
523
00:33:45,619 --> 00:33:47,159
and that included the aunties.
524
00:33:48,899 --> 00:33:51,559
They actually had to pay Anne
525
00:33:51,619 --> 00:33:55,279
the privilege
of caring for the children -
526
00:33:55,339 --> 00:33:57,559
so-called 'caring' for the children -
527
00:33:57,619 --> 00:33:58,719
at Eildon.
528
00:34:00,459 --> 00:34:02,239
Anne was ambitious.
529
00:34:02,299 --> 00:34:03,999
She wanted to expand the cult,
530
00:34:04,059 --> 00:34:06,279
so she bought several properties
in Australia,
531
00:34:06,339 --> 00:34:07,359
in England,
532
00:34:07,419 --> 00:34:08,759
and also near Hurleyville,
533
00:34:08,819 --> 00:34:11,879
a town in the Catskill Mountains
in upstate New York.
534
00:34:17,139 --> 00:34:18,639
This is Swami Muktananda,
535
00:34:18,699 --> 00:34:21,399
the head of
a multi-million dollar empire,
536
00:34:21,459 --> 00:34:22,879
and described by his followers
537
00:34:22,939 --> 00:34:24,919
as one of
the most significant figures
538
00:34:24,979 --> 00:34:26,879
in contemporary spiritual life.
539
00:34:26,939 --> 00:34:30,559
Based in India, he travels the
world, recruiting adherents,
540
00:34:30,619 --> 00:34:32,399
showing people the way.
541
00:34:32,459 --> 00:34:33,719
In the '70s,
542
00:34:33,779 --> 00:34:36,919
there were quite a few "yogis"
543
00:34:36,979 --> 00:34:39,559
coming over to the West
544
00:34:39,619 --> 00:34:44,719
and attaining a lot of money
and fame and power,
545
00:34:44,779 --> 00:34:47,319
but he was one of the biggest.
546
00:34:47,379 --> 00:34:50,119
I mean, he was followed
by a lot of celebrities.
547
00:34:50,179 --> 00:34:54,159
There were ashrams and centres
all over the world,
548
00:34:54,219 --> 00:34:56,719
thousands and thousands of devotees.
549
00:34:57,699 --> 00:35:04,359
While I was on tour with Muktananda,
Anne Hamilton-Byrne showed up.
550
00:35:09,539 --> 00:35:13,119
She had her whole entourage with her
551
00:35:13,179 --> 00:35:15,519
of these small children
552
00:35:15,579 --> 00:35:20,239
with dyed blonde hair
and identical bows in their hair.
553
00:35:21,499 --> 00:35:26,239
She was like this spider
with all these little baby spiders.
554
00:35:26,299 --> 00:35:29,679
It was one of the strangest things
I'd ever seen.
555
00:35:31,619 --> 00:35:33,159
She had a lot of money.
556
00:35:33,219 --> 00:35:34,359
I don't know where she got it,
557
00:35:34,419 --> 00:35:36,759
but she bought a property
very near the ashram
558
00:35:36,819 --> 00:35:39,239
and they would come stay there.
559
00:35:42,579 --> 00:35:44,839
We'd go to the ashram
every afternoon,
560
00:35:44,899 --> 00:35:49,199
so Anne could show us off
to the Swami Muktananda clan,
561
00:35:49,259 --> 00:35:52,479
in order that perhaps
one or two of them at least
562
00:35:52,539 --> 00:35:54,399
would transfer over to her cult.
563
00:35:54,459 --> 00:35:55,799
She was jealous.
564
00:35:55,859 --> 00:35:58,159
I mean, she was the Messiah.
565
00:35:58,219 --> 00:36:03,319
She should be followed by, you know,
all these many beautiful people!
566
00:36:03,379 --> 00:36:05,599
But I got this sense
567
00:36:05,659 --> 00:36:10,959
that Anne was there
to get power from Muktananda,
568
00:36:11,019 --> 00:36:14,359
and Muktananda
was there to show up Anne.
569
00:36:15,499 --> 00:36:19,399
He gave her the name Ma Yoga Shakti.
570
00:36:19,459 --> 00:36:22,799
Ma Yoga Shakti means
"the great mother Shakti".
571
00:36:22,859 --> 00:36:26,719
And I...I mean, it was like
he was making a joke out of her.
572
00:36:28,339 --> 00:36:30,239
People would sit in meditation
573
00:36:30,299 --> 00:36:34,399
and he'd go around and swat you
with this big peacock feather wand.
574
00:36:36,139 --> 00:36:38,919
He was practicing
all these ancient techniques,
575
00:36:38,979 --> 00:36:41,319
that if you do them enough times,
576
00:36:41,379 --> 00:36:45,359
you actually attain powers
to take over someone.
577
00:36:47,699 --> 00:36:52,959
I know that Muktananda
practised...black magic.
578
00:36:53,899 --> 00:36:56,439
I believe that
that's why Anne was there -
579
00:36:56,499 --> 00:36:58,959
to be around him,
to learn more about it.
580
00:37:01,499 --> 00:37:04,839
Anne told everybody
that she had certain powers.
581
00:37:04,899 --> 00:37:08,319
She would put a curse on people
if they did anything wrong,
582
00:37:08,379 --> 00:37:10,199
or something that she didn't like.
583
00:37:10,259 --> 00:37:12,039
She used to have
these little blocks of ice
584
00:37:12,099 --> 00:37:14,919
where she'd put people's names
in the freezer.
585
00:37:14,979 --> 00:37:17,639
Any of the police that were involved
in trying to help us,
586
00:37:17,699 --> 00:37:19,439
she would put their names
in the ice.
587
00:37:32,659 --> 00:37:34,359
The fact is
588
00:37:34,419 --> 00:37:38,159
that the enormous majority of people
do not want this knowledge.
589
00:37:39,539 --> 00:37:44,439
The fact is...
they'd like to see me dead.
590
00:37:44,499 --> 00:37:46,439
Anne cursed me
because I betrayed her.
591
00:37:47,339 --> 00:37:51,079
Betrayed the cult motto
of unseen, unheard, unknown,
592
00:37:51,139 --> 00:37:53,959
and dared to tell the police
593
00:37:54,019 --> 00:37:56,239
what was happening
to the other children.
594
00:37:56,299 --> 00:38:00,999
Once I betrayed her,
I was the...THE Judas.
595
00:38:01,059 --> 00:38:04,039
Every messiah has to have a Judas,
I guess.
596
00:38:25,059 --> 00:38:29,319
A young man dared to criticise
and disagree with Anne.
597
00:38:29,379 --> 00:38:32,279
She said,
"You've turned away from the light.
598
00:38:34,339 --> 00:38:36,799
"You are going to die
of a heart attack."
599
00:38:38,979 --> 00:38:41,759
So what did he do?
He went home and had a heart attack.
600
00:38:56,139 --> 00:38:59,159
No-one thought they were going off
worshipping the devil.
601
00:39:01,139 --> 00:39:05,399
People have been used
to thinking of evil as being ugly...
602
00:39:05,459 --> 00:39:06,839
..whereas it's not.
603
00:39:06,899 --> 00:39:11,679
It looks beautiful,
it can use everything, even love,
604
00:39:11,739 --> 00:39:14,239
to get its own way,
to get power.
605
00:39:14,299 --> 00:39:15,879
That's beautiful. Come on.
606
00:39:16,339 --> 00:39:17,599
Aren't they the sweetest?
607
00:39:17,659 --> 00:39:19,239
No that's really beautiful, that,
honey.
608
00:39:19,299 --> 00:39:20,319
Beautiful boys.
609
00:39:20,379 --> 00:39:22,439
Oh, stay like that for a while.
That's beautiful.
610
00:39:29,499 --> 00:39:30,639
Mmm.
611
00:39:30,699 --> 00:39:34,039
Beautiful boys for the children.
Oh, how lovely.
612
00:39:45,459 --> 00:39:47,279
She wasn't giving love.
613
00:39:47,339 --> 00:39:50,439
She was offering it
and then taking it back.
614
00:39:51,339 --> 00:39:54,799
That's how she made those
poor aunties at Eildon
615
00:39:54,859 --> 00:39:57,319
do these appalling things
to children.
616
00:39:57,379 --> 00:39:59,119
She broke their spirit.
617
00:40:26,659 --> 00:40:28,759
I took it on myself
618
00:40:28,819 --> 00:40:30,999
to talk to one of the psychiatrists
619
00:40:31,059 --> 00:40:32,839
who'd dropped out of the group.
620
00:40:32,899 --> 00:40:36,959
And I said, "What would you say
Anne is, medically speaking?"
621
00:40:37,019 --> 00:40:39,039
And he said,
"Well, she's a psychopath."
622
00:40:40,939 --> 00:40:48,679
She was intuitively, diabolically
able to see into people.
623
00:40:52,819 --> 00:40:55,119
In the 1950s and '60s,
624
00:40:55,179 --> 00:40:56,599
medical and military circles
625
00:40:56,659 --> 00:40:59,719
were experimenting with LSD
as a truth drug.
626
00:41:00,899 --> 00:41:03,359
Even the CIA and the
KGB were involved.
627
00:41:04,339 --> 00:41:05,999
Psychiatrists in The Family
628
00:41:06,059 --> 00:41:08,119
would have told Anne
about its potential
629
00:41:08,179 --> 00:41:10,719
to get deep into the minds
of her followers.
630
00:41:17,339 --> 00:41:20,439
She found out everything.
631
00:41:20,499 --> 00:41:23,399
People under the drug
went back to their childhood.
632
00:41:23,459 --> 00:41:26,279
They told all their secrets,
good and bad.
633
00:41:26,339 --> 00:41:28,519
She would gather
all that information...
634
00:41:29,459 --> 00:41:30,999
..and use it later
635
00:41:31,059 --> 00:41:33,359
to destroy people's marriages
and relationships.
636
00:41:33,419 --> 00:41:36,479
I'm not aware of any marriage
that survived that Family.
637
00:41:40,579 --> 00:41:42,639
The LSD was like an interrogation,
638
00:41:42,699 --> 00:41:45,239
which was always trying
to get down to something...
639
00:41:45,299 --> 00:41:47,559
..usually sexual, or shameful.
640
00:42:35,819 --> 00:42:39,239
You know, I could kind of tell
the days and nights going past
641
00:42:39,299 --> 00:42:44,319
because of the clatter of the meals
underneath as they prepared food.
642
00:42:45,859 --> 00:42:47,759
She'd just come in
like every 12 hours or so
643
00:42:47,819 --> 00:42:49,119
and give me another piece
644
00:42:49,179 --> 00:42:50,559
because I wasn't working hard enough.
645
00:42:51,819 --> 00:42:56,359
She would ask questions about...
about your sexual thoughts,
646
00:42:56,419 --> 00:42:58,559
your sexual desires,
your sexual fantasies,
647
00:42:58,619 --> 00:43:00,199
what you liked,
what you didn't like.
648
00:43:00,259 --> 00:43:02,679
Whether you were breastfed
or whether you weren't breastfed
649
00:43:02,739 --> 00:43:05,479
and whether you were really
homosexual or whether you weren't.
650
00:43:07,899 --> 00:43:12,599
We'd been involved with Muktananda
for a few years prior to that,
651
00:43:12,659 --> 00:43:16,359
and I was very attracted to him
personally as a guru.
652
00:43:16,419 --> 00:43:20,759
And she really, really,
really wanted me to deny him
653
00:43:20,819 --> 00:43:23,199
and accept her as the living Christ.
654
00:43:23,259 --> 00:43:25,359
She really hammered me on it,
655
00:43:25,419 --> 00:43:26,639
either to break me,
656
00:43:26,699 --> 00:43:30,679
or...or she wanted me to be hers.
657
00:43:49,779 --> 00:43:52,039
Bill said,
"Oh, you're back with us."
658
00:43:52,099 --> 00:43:54,879
And it was several months
after what had happened.
659
00:43:57,339 --> 00:44:00,759
I just flipped out
into some sort of psychotic state.
660
00:44:13,619 --> 00:44:19,679
She seemed to use sex to bring out
the guilt that people felt.
661
00:44:20,419 --> 00:44:24,199
She would target the women
in the group.
662
00:44:24,259 --> 00:44:27,519
Some of them had
had multiple partners,
663
00:44:27,579 --> 00:44:31,119
so she would publicly name them
and shame them.
664
00:44:31,179 --> 00:44:35,959
It was a way
of keeping them...compliant.
665
00:44:42,739 --> 00:44:46,719
Anne treated pregnant women
very badly.
666
00:44:46,779 --> 00:44:50,679
Pre- and post-natal depression
was common.
667
00:44:50,739 --> 00:44:52,279
And it happened to me.
668
00:44:52,339 --> 00:44:55,839
She just told people that they
weren't allowed to visit me at all.
669
00:44:55,899 --> 00:44:57,839
So I had no visitors,
670
00:44:57,899 --> 00:44:59,599
and, um...you know,
671
00:44:59,659 --> 00:45:02,999
just I...I got very depressed
while I was pregnant.
672
00:45:03,939 --> 00:45:06,119
I was very thin.
673
00:45:06,179 --> 00:45:08,079
I was shaking all the time.
674
00:45:08,139 --> 00:45:10,959
I couldn't drive,
I couldn't...think.
675
00:45:12,019 --> 00:45:16,639
And so she said, "Well, you know,
I'll take care of your children
676
00:45:16,699 --> 00:45:18,719
"because, you know, you're a wreck"
677
00:45:18,779 --> 00:45:21,599
and she sent me over to England
for a year.
678
00:45:24,739 --> 00:45:26,759
My children were sent up to...
679
00:45:27,339 --> 00:45:29,079
..Eildon,
680
00:45:29,139 --> 00:45:31,119
and the results were catastrophic.
681
00:45:38,979 --> 00:45:43,039
David was very, very badly treated.
682
00:45:43,099 --> 00:45:46,399
He was given back to me
when he was seven.
683
00:45:47,979 --> 00:45:51,999
Anne said if he'd stayed up there,
he would have died,
684
00:45:52,059 --> 00:45:54,359
so she gave him back to me.
685
00:45:54,419 --> 00:45:57,319
He couldn't speak.
He'd lost his speech.
686
00:45:59,499 --> 00:46:02,679
David has no memory now
687
00:46:02,739 --> 00:46:06,599
of anything that happened to him
before he was seven.
688
00:46:06,659 --> 00:46:08,039
Nothing.
689
00:46:10,339 --> 00:46:13,759
And...Matthew became very depressed.
690
00:46:14,859 --> 00:46:17,879
He tried to take his life
when he was 16.
691
00:46:19,339 --> 00:46:24,199
He couldn't come to terms
with how he felt, his depression,
692
00:46:24,259 --> 00:46:26,639
and he finally...succumbed.
693
00:46:28,579 --> 00:46:32,159
Matthew suicided eventually
when he was 20.
694
00:46:52,339 --> 00:46:53,679
There were so many people
695
00:46:53,739 --> 00:46:56,679
that were so adversely affected
by this group.
696
00:46:57,459 --> 00:46:58,959
They'd lost their money,
697
00:46:59,019 --> 00:47:00,359
they'd lost their properties,
698
00:47:00,419 --> 00:47:03,959
they, uh...they lost their minds.
699
00:47:10,939 --> 00:47:14,519
I submitted a detailed report
700
00:47:14,579 --> 00:47:17,479
and suggested
that the only real way forward
701
00:47:17,539 --> 00:47:19,279
was a Royal Commission,
702
00:47:19,339 --> 00:47:21,519
where many, many of these people
703
00:47:21,579 --> 00:47:25,879
could and would come forward
and give evidence.
704
00:47:28,379 --> 00:47:31,079
But it was just rejected.
705
00:47:31,139 --> 00:47:33,319
I don't even know
that it went anywhere
706
00:47:33,379 --> 00:47:35,999
apart from my immediate superiors.
707
00:47:39,899 --> 00:47:42,679
The wheels of justice
were just too slow.
708
00:47:42,739 --> 00:47:44,439
Where was the justice
for the adult victims?
709
00:47:44,499 --> 00:47:46,519
Where was the justice
for the child victims?
710
00:47:46,579 --> 00:47:48,519
Why wasn't she being
brought to account?
711
00:47:49,499 --> 00:47:53,679
We got word that she was in Hawaii.
712
00:47:53,739 --> 00:47:56,839
It seemed to me it was about time
that she answered some questions.
713
00:47:57,339 --> 00:47:58,679
Hello, Mrs Hamilton-Byrne.
714
00:47:58,739 --> 00:48:00,239
Marie Mohr from Channel 9.
715
00:48:00,299 --> 00:48:01,239
Have you got any comment now
716
00:48:01,299 --> 00:48:03,719
about why you kept those children
locked away for so long?
717
00:48:03,779 --> 00:48:05,719
No comment.
No comment.
718
00:48:05,779 --> 00:48:06,719
Why not?
719
00:48:06,779 --> 00:48:08,479
They weren't locked away.
They weren't locked away.
720
00:48:08,539 --> 00:48:09,959
They weren't locked away?
No, they weren't.
721
00:48:10,019 --> 00:48:11,799
Keeping them at Eildon for years?
No. Excuse me.
722
00:48:11,859 --> 00:48:14,159
Can you explain to me why you treated
the children like you did?
723
00:48:14,219 --> 00:48:16,439
And, Bill, if you'd like to give
explanations as to your involvement
724
00:48:16,499 --> 00:48:17,679
in why the
children were locked away.
725
00:48:17,739 --> 00:48:19,159
I've got nothing to say to you.
726
00:48:19,219 --> 00:48:20,919
You locked...
and you stole the children...
727
00:48:20,979 --> 00:48:21,959
Stole?
728
00:48:22,019 --> 00:48:23,519
You stole them from sect members.
729
00:48:23,579 --> 00:48:25,599
Excuse me.
Got doctors to organise the adoption.
730
00:48:25,659 --> 00:48:27,239
I think this is absolute...
Excuse me.
731
00:48:27,299 --> 00:48:28,559
I'll just go and phone the police.
732
00:48:28,619 --> 00:48:30,039
But why won't you give us a...
733
00:48:30,099 --> 00:48:31,599
Excuse me.
Sorry.
734
00:48:31,659 --> 00:48:32,799
But why won't you?
735
00:48:32,859 --> 00:48:34,359
We have legal action.
736
00:48:34,419 --> 00:48:35,879
We've been advised to say nothing.
737
00:48:35,939 --> 00:48:37,919
You have no rights
to be asking me these things.
738
00:48:37,979 --> 00:48:39,559
Do you think
you have spiritual powers?
739
00:48:39,619 --> 00:48:42,639
I don't THINK
I have spiritual powers.
740
00:48:42,699 --> 00:48:44,799
We had several defamation cases
brought against us
741
00:48:44,859 --> 00:48:46,239
by different members of the sect.
742
00:48:46,299 --> 00:48:47,519
Not Anne!
743
00:48:47,579 --> 00:48:49,279
Anne doesn't ever
do her own dirty work.
744
00:48:50,179 --> 00:48:53,919
A long period of time where
I'd be lucky to get a night's sleep
745
00:48:53,979 --> 00:48:56,039
without the phone
going through the night.
746
00:48:56,099 --> 00:48:58,119
Hang-up calls, hang-up calls.
747
00:48:58,179 --> 00:48:59,639
Just a harassment campaign.
748
00:49:02,139 --> 00:49:05,279
Marie had, of course, the
private wallet of the media empire.
749
00:49:05,339 --> 00:49:07,439
I worked within a bureaucracy.
750
00:49:07,499 --> 00:49:09,279
You've actually got to
convince your bosses
751
00:49:09,339 --> 00:49:11,599
that what you're talking
about is actual...
752
00:49:11,659 --> 00:49:13,679
..not bizarre,
but it's a possibility.
753
00:49:27,379 --> 00:49:29,919
I don't know
exactly what happened,
754
00:49:29,979 --> 00:49:31,119
but there's no doubt
755
00:49:31,179 --> 00:49:34,159
that it had to have come
from within our...our group.
756
00:49:35,499 --> 00:49:42,879
The matter came to me through
anxious and unhappy police...
757
00:49:44,819 --> 00:49:46,359
..on a confidential basis.
758
00:49:46,419 --> 00:49:51,599
I mean, I would never,
even to this day, say who it was.
759
00:49:53,499 --> 00:50:00,119
It was one policeman who used me
to say what needed to be said.
760
00:50:02,539 --> 00:50:05,719
The matters being investigated
are most serious.
761
00:50:05,779 --> 00:50:09,399
Shots are being fired through
windows, car tyres are being slashed.
762
00:50:09,459 --> 00:50:11,679
There are death threats.
763
00:50:11,739 --> 00:50:13,199
Not one charge has been laid
764
00:50:13,259 --> 00:50:14,679
because the squad concerned
765
00:50:14,739 --> 00:50:16,399
is not able to obtain permission
766
00:50:16,459 --> 00:50:18,959
to travel interstate
to conduct interviews.
767
00:50:19,019 --> 00:50:20,759
The police are saying,
768
00:50:20,819 --> 00:50:23,799
"For God's sake, give us
the resources to do the job.
769
00:50:23,859 --> 00:50:26,199
"Let us get on with the job."
770
00:50:26,259 --> 00:50:30,759
Around about that point,
there was quite a deal of publicity.
771
00:50:30,819 --> 00:50:34,199
I think that became
very embarrassing to government,
772
00:50:34,259 --> 00:50:35,839
and strangely enough,
773
00:50:35,899 --> 00:50:39,079
all of a sudden,
we got more resources -
774
00:50:39,139 --> 00:50:42,199
computers and analysts
775
00:50:42,259 --> 00:50:44,879
to assist in getting together
all this information
776
00:50:44,939 --> 00:50:47,079
that went back for so long.
777
00:50:49,819 --> 00:50:51,199
Today in Melbourne,
778
00:50:51,259 --> 00:50:53,479
19-year-old Roland Webb was charged
779
00:50:53,539 --> 00:50:56,039
with threatening to kill
investigating police
780
00:50:56,099 --> 00:50:58,039
and reporter Marie Mohr.
781
00:50:58,099 --> 00:51:02,119
The story is that one of the
policemen that raided at Eildon
782
00:51:02,179 --> 00:51:03,439
when they took the kids
783
00:51:03,499 --> 00:51:04,879
hit Mum.
784
00:51:04,939 --> 00:51:07,759
You don't stuff
with me and my...my family.
785
00:51:20,099 --> 00:51:21,159
Go on.
786
00:51:21,699 --> 00:51:22,759
Roland.
787
00:51:27,179 --> 00:51:29,359
Sometimes I don't know
when to shut my mouth.
788
00:51:32,419 --> 00:51:34,399
This mouth has got me
into trouble sometimes.
789
00:51:36,619 --> 00:51:39,399
And, like, I don't fear authority.
790
00:51:39,459 --> 00:51:42,159
Well, I stand by my parents
and the followers.
791
00:51:42,939 --> 00:51:46,879
It's a free world. I'm going to
follow them every inch of the way.
792
00:51:46,939 --> 00:51:49,039
Uncle Bill, he was tickled pink.
793
00:51:49,779 --> 00:51:50,999
Couldn't stop talking
794
00:51:51,059 --> 00:51:53,839
how I was the only person
that stood up for The Family.
795
00:51:55,579 --> 00:51:56,759
So much so
796
00:51:56,819 --> 00:51:59,919
that he promised me $50,000
in his will...
797
00:52:01,339 --> 00:52:03,479
..for that very act.
798
00:52:08,859 --> 00:52:11,559
I know at the time
many of my friends outside work
799
00:52:11,619 --> 00:52:13,759
were really worried
about my state of health.
800
00:52:14,699 --> 00:52:17,039
It's not a nine to five job.
801
00:52:17,099 --> 00:52:18,919
Your mind continues to tick.
802
00:52:19,819 --> 00:52:22,119
"What's the next step
I'm going to do?
803
00:52:22,179 --> 00:52:24,519
"How's that witness going
that I've just interviewed?"
804
00:52:25,539 --> 00:52:26,919
You're dealing with people
805
00:52:26,979 --> 00:52:30,119
that have gone through
enormous emotional trauma,
806
00:52:30,179 --> 00:52:34,519
and so when you're taking their
strong and horrendous statements...
807
00:52:34,579 --> 00:52:36,119
..pretty taxing work.
808
00:52:37,859 --> 00:52:39,799
And there were times
during the task force
809
00:52:39,859 --> 00:52:41,919
where you dealt with senior people,
810
00:52:41,979 --> 00:52:45,999
and they just didn't understand
the impact it was having.
811
00:52:46,059 --> 00:52:48,959
It was a culture in those days of,
you know,
812
00:52:49,019 --> 00:52:52,199
"Oh, you're a detective? Don't be
bloody weak. Let's just move on."
813
00:52:53,339 --> 00:52:56,959
I can remember one policemen
saying to me he wanted to see me.
814
00:52:57,019 --> 00:52:58,879
He was a big, tough cop.
815
00:52:58,939 --> 00:53:00,879
We went into a private room.
816
00:53:00,939 --> 00:53:03,359
He just looked me in the eye
and he said,
817
00:53:03,419 --> 00:53:05,879
"What happened to those kids
is giving me nightmares."
818
00:53:11,939 --> 00:53:16,319
Two of the members needed their
own psychological treatment,
819
00:53:16,379 --> 00:53:18,479
and left the task force.
820
00:53:25,619 --> 00:53:30,679
It was frustrating
and it was a bit depressing as well,
821
00:53:30,739 --> 00:53:35,559
just to actually have that conflict,
if you like -
822
00:53:35,619 --> 00:53:40,199
being close
to these great young kids,
823
00:53:40,259 --> 00:53:46,639
and then not be able
to do the absolute best for them.
824
00:53:47,979 --> 00:53:50,119
It should have been
a royal commission,
825
00:53:50,179 --> 00:53:54,279
for the benefit of those children
and the many, many people
826
00:53:54,339 --> 00:53:57,039
who are so adversely effected
by this group.
827
00:54:00,379 --> 00:54:06,319
The only thing that you can do
is lead by example and keep focused.
828
00:54:07,939 --> 00:54:12,959
We started then to piece together
all the evidence we had,
829
00:54:13,019 --> 00:54:15,359
where the evidence was missing,
830
00:54:15,419 --> 00:54:16,719
and what we needed to do,
831
00:54:16,779 --> 00:54:21,039
and where was the strongest case
that we could find
832
00:54:21,099 --> 00:54:23,719
in a short period of time
833
00:54:23,779 --> 00:54:25,719
against Anne and Bill.
834
00:54:27,339 --> 00:54:30,199
We gave each alleged offender
a colour,
835
00:54:30,259 --> 00:54:32,479
each series of events a number,
836
00:54:32,539 --> 00:54:34,839
and each victim
a letter of the alphabet.
837
00:54:37,419 --> 00:54:40,839
I was absolutely, totally obsessed,
and others on the team were as well.
838
00:54:42,539 --> 00:54:46,439
We were getting pressured to
wrap it up, but we kept on working.
839
00:54:48,859 --> 00:54:50,559
Then came the breakthrough.
840
00:54:55,339 --> 00:55:00,759
The key to the activities of the cult
lay in the brain of Peter Kibby.
841
00:55:00,819 --> 00:55:04,039
He broke the code of silence
within that sect.
842
00:55:04,099 --> 00:55:07,919
And we just had to get Anne
and get Bill back to Australia.
843
00:55:07,979 --> 00:55:09,399
This was a mission for him,
844
00:55:09,459 --> 00:55:12,759
and he was determined to right
a very horrible wrong.
845
00:55:13,899 --> 00:55:16,239
Anne Hamilton-Byrne
and her husband William
846
00:55:16,299 --> 00:55:18,279
were arrested at their home
in upstate New York...
847
00:55:18,339 --> 00:55:19,439
This morning,
848
00:55:19,499 --> 00:55:21,759
Victorian police
had Anne and William Hamilton-Byrne
849
00:55:21,819 --> 00:55:23,519
back on Australian soil.
850
00:55:23,579 --> 00:55:26,399
When she was extradited
