Snowtown Murders

The Snowtown murders were a series of homicides committed by John Bunting and Robert Wagner between August 1992 and May 1999 in South Australia. Motivation for the eleven murders is unclear, and the acts included torture.

Bunting and Wagner bragged openly about killing, and Bunting called it "playing".

The killings began with music from Live’s Throwing Copper. Their enjoyment was ritualised through the use of the song Selling the Drama. The lyric included the line And to love: a god / And to fear: a flame. And later, tellingly, Hey, now we won't be raped / Hey, now we won't be scarred like that.
