Shortcut: My father the underworld crime figure

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.

Frank La Rosa and his wife Kim were murdered at a Welshpool (WA) factory on June 13, 2008.

Along with being a convicted heroin importer and notorious underworld figure in Western Australia, Frank La Rosa was also a father to three children.

Lisa Mahoney is one of those children. She joins us on this episode of Australian True Crime to discuss the collateral damage her father's actions have had on her own life and the lives of many others.

Lisa has written a memoir about her life and her father's life as seen through her eyes, titled 'Collateral Damage'. You can purchase it by clicking here.
