Martin Pearson and Leanne Sleba

Anzac Day Friday, 25 April 2014


John Pearson said it was a bleak irony that his brother
Martin was killed on a day that was all about mateship and
courage.


“This is an act of supreme cowardice and I can’t believe
somebody’s conscience hasn’t got the better of them and they
won’t be struck by an act of guilt,” 


“I can’t believe the extreme irony of someone leaving a vet by
the side of the road. Being left for dead on Anzac Day, a day we
remember mateship and self-sacrifice, and he was left as
roadkill.”


Join Shaun and Chloe as they discuss the tragic hit and run death
of a well-respected vet and family man, and the police
investigation that uncovered the culprit, and another strange
death he was connected with from six years earlier.
