On 3 February 1967, despite general public outrage and vocal protests from wide-ranging community teams, Ronald Ryan became the last person to be officially carried out in Australia. Previous Words is the individuals report behind this historical event that goals to answer some of the remaining unanswered questions, 50 years after his loss of life. Ryan was found guilty of murdering prison official George Hodson during a getaway from Pentridge Prison with fellow inmate Peter Walker. But have Ryan really flames the bullet? Was Ryan carried out to bolster Victorian Premier Henry Bolte's chances of winning the forthcoming Victorian election, during which he ran a campaign promoting his law-and-order agenda? Through mesmerising prose, Barry Dickens needs listeners in to the last weeks of Ryan's life and brings to life this infamous man whose personal report has truly gone undocumented until now.
