<p><strong>CALIFORNIA. USA. The drug that goes by many names</strong>, coke, blow, snow, has addictive properties. Use of cocaine induces tolerance to the effects and addicts that withdraw from the drug experience fatigue, depression, decreased libido and a decreased ability to feel pleasure. <strong><em>The drug also causes around 7,300 deaths annually.</em></strong></p> <p><strong>With that,</strong> the stage is set for one of the strangest stories involving New Zealand, a tale that takes us from the <strong>South Island </strong>of <strong>Aotearoa</strong> where <strong>1.2 </strong>million people call home to <strong>California</strong> in the <strong>United States of America </strong>where almost <strong>40</strong> million reside. </p> <p>This is the disturbing and tragic case of <strong>The Iceman</strong>.</p> <p><strong>Visit <a href="https://truecrimenz.com/2024/04/24/case-36-the-iceman/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.truecrimenz.com</a> </strong>for more information on this case including sources and credits.</p>

<p><strong>The Royal New Zealand Returned and Services Association,</strong> better known simply as the <strong>RSA</strong> was first established in <strong>New Zealand </strong>on the <strong>28th of April 1916</strong> by veteran of the F<strong>irst World War Donald Simson</strong>.</p> <p><strong>The RSA is a registered charity</strong> that raises money to <em>“provide support and comfort for service men and women and their families”</em>. In <strong>1921</strong>, the RSA successfully campaigned for <strong>ANZAC Day</strong> <strong><em>(the 25th of April)</em></strong> to become a public holiday.</p> <p><strong>However, there is one dark,</strong> horrifying moment in the history of the RSA, that would see the organisation the victim of one of the most cruel and depraved acts of violence in NZ’s history.</p> <p><strong>This savage, vicious crime </strong>took place only seventeen days before <strong>Christmas</strong> in <strong>December 2001 </strong>and resulted in the longest prison sentence in the annals of New Zealand. <strong><em>The events of that day went down in history as The RSA Murders.</em></strong></p> <p><strong>Visit <a href="https://truecrimenz.com/2024/01/19/case-35-the-rsa-murders/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.truecrimenz.com</a> </strong>for more information on this case including sources and credits.</p>

<p><strong>On the 9th of June 1978,</strong> natives of the <strong>Southland</strong> city of <strong>Invercargill</strong> in the <strong>South Island</strong> of <strong>New Zealand </strong>were treated to a curious sight, <strong>1,300</strong> ewes <em>(female sheep)</em> wandering confused around Invercargill’s main shopping district.</p> <p><strong>The confused sheep</strong> created chaos as they dashed across roads making traffic come to a standstill, chewed on the local shrubbery and ran into shops looking for safety. <strong><em>But why was this happening? Who set these poor critters loose?</em></strong></p> <p><strong>Visit <a href="https://truecrimenz.com/2023/10/10/tales-ii-bloody-friday" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">www.truecrimenz.com</a> </strong>for more information on this case including sources and credits.</p>
