Throughout his criminal career, Donahue and his gang targeted stagecoaches and travelers, using the rugged terrain of the Australian outback to their advantage. Unlike other bushrangers, however, Donahue's group stole more than just valuables - they weren't called the Strippers for nothing.


As his exploits grew in infamy, Donahue became a folk hero to some and a menace to others. His ability to outwit law enforcement and continue his criminal activities captivated the public imagination.


In this episode, we chronicle Donahue's life as a bushranger, highlighting the impact of his actions on Australian society and his enduring legacy as one of the most infamous outlaws in Australian history.
