The brother of a gay American who was killed in a 1988 Sydney cliff top attack has accused elements within local police of demonizing their family for pursuing justice. An Australian man was sentenced to nine years in prison last week for killing Scott Johnson, after his older brother Steve Johnson led the family’s efforts to overturn a coroner’s finding that the openly gay mathematician had taken his own life. Johnson said that recent evidence in a New South Wales state government inquiry into gay hate crimes had confirmed their worst fears that the police were really not only opposed to the investigation but demonizing our family.
