Botany Bay John Doe was a man whose mutilated torso was found off of Kyeemagh Beach in 2012. No other remains have been found.

He had very high levels of cocaine in his system, and it is speculated that the man was a drug mule and his abdomen had been cut open to retrieve drugs after his death. It is believed that he was either murdered or died of an overdose.

DNA testing conducted in 2016 connected the man to relatives with the last names Elliott and Sivyer.
