Denis Tanner, a Victorian detective, hit the headlines in 1996 when a newspaper accused him of murdering two women - his sister-in-law Jennifer, whose death in 1994 was treated as a suicide, and Adele Bailey, a transsexual prostitute who disappeared in 1978. In 1998, a coroner found that Denis Tanner had shot is sister-in-law, but due to insufficient evidence Tanner was never changed. Nor was he charged for the murder of Adele Bailey, following two inquests that have ruined several lives. In Blackened Tanner, retired detective sergeant Ron Irwin tells Denis Tanner's side of the story. It's a potentially explosive account of a case that has generated massive public interest in Australia for fifteen years.
