The Truth They Tried to Bury

My name is, Simon Golding and in 2007 I was on a long awaited sailing trip with my mate, Andy Whitton when he mysteriously disappeared. The tragedy unfolded when we were on his yacht enjoying a Pacific crossing from Tahiti to the Galapagos.  After this devastating, event the ABC’s Australian Story turned it into a sensationalised smear campaign against me full of half-truths, edited interviews, and character attacks, despite me never being charged of any wrongdoing.

Separately, in 2010 I was arrested as part of a cocaine related operation called Collage/Bergonia, which was carried out at Scarborough Marina, QLD. The case that followed was riddled with corruption – AFP officers were filmed on CCTV removing bags from the marina 6 hours prior the 8pm time they claimed they had attended, hundreds of kilos of cocaine seized mysteriously went missing during the operation, a Customs officer involved in the operation was caught snorting cocaine four days later, and an estimated 24 Customs officers allegedly involved in the execution of the operation were never disclosed fully in court documentation.

This site is my side — the facts from the files, the photos, the letters, the transcripts. No spin. Just my truth.
