James Patrick Taylor: The Kimberley, 1974

James Patrick Taylor: The Kimberley, 1974

In August 1974, twelve-year-old James Patrick Taylor disappeared from the Kimberley town of Derby after being sent on a simple errand. He never came home.

This episode examines how a known predator was able to operate freely, how police failures shaped the response to a missing child, and why it is very likely Jimmy was taken by someone who should have been stopped.
