Shortcut: I'm sorry I missed a brutal multiple murder

Shortcut: I'm sorry I missed a brutal multiple murder

This is a "Shortcut" episode. It’s a shortened version of this week’s more detailed full episode, which is also available on our feed.


Our guest today is from Toowoomba in Queensland, and he thought he'd seen his fair share of violence and mayhem by the time he'd sobered up in his mid-twenties.


On today's episode, we're talking about a terrible turn of events that landed him back in the middle of incredibly senseless violence, just as he was pulling his life together.


On the evening of May 30th 2005, three teenage boys brutally murdered Michael Thompson, 30, and teenagers David Lyons and Tyson Wilson, both just 17.


Our guest, who was literally on his way to Thompson's flat, was distracted that night by an old mate. It was a distraction that may well have saved his life, but it's also left him guilt ridden ever since.
