Ross Warren
Ross Warren was an Australian journalist for
WIN Television who was killed as part of the
Gay Gang Murders on 22 July 1989. Having disappeared after a night out with friends on
Oxford Street, Warren's car was discovered outside Marks Park,
Sydney, a popular
gay beat. His car keys were found two days later at the bottom of the adjoining cliffs. Police initially theorised that Warren had faked his own disappearance, concluding after four days that he had accidentally fallen into the sea. A search was undertaken, however his body was never recovered. In 2005, the case was recategorised as a
homicide, the previous investigation being described as "grossly inadequate" and "shameful" by the deputy
coroner Jacqueline Milledge. Today his murder is seen as one of many slayings and
hate-crimes committed on
the cliffs of Marks Park in the 1980s and 1990s. His name is listed on a memorial to the victims of these crimes located at the site.
