This weekend Victoria Police is marking its saddest anniversary. It’s three years since a drugged truck driver ran down and killed four officers on Melbourne’s Eastern Freeway. It was the deadliest day in the history of the force, made even more horrific by a callous Porsche driver who taunted and filmed the dying police and then shared the vision with his friends.

Now, in a joint investigation with The Age, 60 MINUTES can reveal a bizarre and worrying twist in the story. As Amelia Adams reports, the semi-trailer driver, who has been convicted and jailed for his actions, might not have been behind the wheel that terrible day but for his boss’s devotion to a little-known, hardline religious sect called The Potter’s House.
