Mark Dixie, one of Britain's most depraved killer rapists entered Australia in the 1990s initially staying in Sydney before travelling to Perth where he was known to frequent the western suburbs clubs and pubs through the period of the Claremont murders.
It was revealed later by DNA match and after he'd been deported from Australia, that while in Perth he'd broken into a girls unit where she was subjected to a prolonged and incredibly vicious stabbing and rape, she was lucky to survive. His later victim back in Britain, Sally Ann Bowman was not as fortunate.
Dixie is under attention by our press again as it's been revealed that he was questioned in 1997 over another attack on a woman who was walking home. He was let go without charge.
The police claim he was in WA 1996 to 1999 but nobody knows exactly when he arrived in WA, driving a car that wasn't registered to him and using the alias of Shane Turner. Dixie may have been in the area as early as when Sarah Spiers went missing.
This article claims Dixie was deported for overstaying his visa which might be the official line but he'd been arrested in WA for a sex pest offence and gave the police his alias. He appeared in court under that alias before the police realised who he was.
