94 year old Lilian Irwin was an Inspector in Victoria Police for nearly three decades. “Lil” as she’s affectionately known led the way for women in the police force. When Lil joined in 1961 she was only one of four women in her squad. Nick-named “The Queen of Fitzroy” and “Legs 11,” Lil was the only female Inspector when she was promoted in 1977 at a time when policewomen thought they’d be lucky to get to Sergeant!
