2023/09/26

Today we are talking about road trauma and examination of those scenes – it may not be suitable for some affected by road trauma.There’s been a spate of BUS and TRUCK crashes of recent times here in Victoria and NSW which made me think it was time we had a chat to an amazing man who was and still is most likely, one of Australia’s most knowledgeable experts in the field of major collision investigations, Peter Bellion.Peter hasn’t stopped loving what he did for 30 years and is still closely involved

We revisit Keith Banks

Narelle Fraser Interviews ·

2023/08/29

Going underground as a cop sounds like an exciting proposition for a young recruit still learning the ropes, and for Keith Banks that’s exactly what it was. He would soon be immersed in the seedy side of criminal life, where he would assume the identity of a drug dealer with the aim of bringing down the cartels flooding the streets with narcotics. But the job would come at the cost of Keith’s mental wellbeing. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Over a 30 year long career, Peter would attend over 2000 fatal traffic accidents and eventually the horrific sights he faced on a near daily basis took a toll until he was eventually diagnosed with PTSD. Peter still battles with these demons to this day. Hosted on
