Murder of the Pohlmann brothers in Australian crime saga
The Wagga Wagga Express reports the 1868 case of hawkers the Pohlmann brothers who vanished near Yanco Creek. Their wagon looted, ashes of a large fire, and valuables recovered disproved an in‑trafficking murder theory. Robert Campbell was later convicted of their murder and hanged on October 5, 1870, with no confession.
