He held up people at gunpoint and stole their belongings. He killed police who attempted to apprehend him. Today he would be thrown into gaol like any frequent armed robber, however Australia is so devoid of historical heroes that history has been twisted to make him into a loveable rogue, who was a lady's man and only stole from rich people who deserved it. He was just misunderstood and picked on. God help us!
