Outrage over baby clothes with serial killer pictures

An Australian company has sparked international outrage by selling baby clothes with pictures of Hitler, Osama bin Laden and serial killers Ivan Milat, Ted Bundy and Charles Manson. 

The range of garments is in sizes from 000 rompers for three-month-old babies to T-shirts for children up to 12, News Ltd says.

The Ivan Milat baby romper has a picture of his face and the slogan: "Australians Just Love Backpackers". T-shirts bear the words "Free Ted Bundy" and "Ted Bundy is Innocent", and "Serial Killer in Training" alongside graphic images.

Other clothes feature images of a syringe and a spoon high-fiving each other with the slogan "Team work" and Julia Gillard with the slogan "Deliberately barren".

The founder and CEO of international artists website redbubble.com said offending garments were removed once complaints had been received.

But on Friday night there were still dozens for sale on the website, a forum for aspiring and established artists, News Ltd says.

The site is run from Flinders St, Melbourne and San Francisco.
