Murderer James Richard Finch dead
A coroner has been told one of the men convicted of murder over a shocking arson attack at a Brisbane nightclub has died before he could give evidence at a new inquest into the historic firebombing.
Heartbroken family members and survivors have demanded answers for years over the 1973 arson attack on the Whisky Au Go-Go nightclub in Fortitude Valley, which claimed the lives of 15 people.
Two men, John Andrew Stuart and James Richard Finch, were convicted of murder that year.
Finch was released on parole in 1988 and deported to England.
