Author
McLachlan founded Gumshoe News[8] in 2013 and along with Mary W Maxwell has written and published over 2,000 articles. McLachlan and Maxwell have co-authored two books: Enough is Enough (on the Port Arthur massacre in Tasmania) and Truth in Journalism. Mclachlan has written five children's books.
In November 2023 Dee Mclachlan released her book "the child protection racket". Introduction: The book documents the unwarranted, unlawful, often forced removal of children from parents in Australia via secret closed “star chamber” style courts. Although it is a major global industry, Australia is a world leader in child removals. You as the reader can decide whether they are abducted, kidnapped, stolen and/or trafficked in a “cash for kids” trade. The system fosters a dysfunctional society by destroying families, eroding love, and disrupting the sacred mother-child bond. The cruelty imposed on these families is indescribable and still today remains largely hidden from the public.
Only through knowing the truth can we bring about the positive changes that are desperately needed for thousands of children and families. So, be prepared for a shocking journey of discovery as a bright light shines on the darkness of what can only be called “The Child Protection Racket”.[9]
