Chris Dawson

Christopher Michael Dawson is an Australian convicted murderer and sex offender, and a former professional rugby league footballer who played in the 1970s. Following the 1982 disappearance of his wife, Lynette, and two separate coronial inquests, the New South Wales State Coroner determined that Lynette was dead and that Chris Dawson was her most likely murderer. After many years of stalled and failed investigations, Dawson was arrested and charged with murder in December 2018.
