32 years at the sharp end: John Taylor Pt.1

About this episode

For more than 30 years, John Taylor faced death every day. As the longest running bomb squad expert in the Special Operations Group (SOG), John operated at the sharp end of Australia’s most dangerous police work - confronting armed offenders, managing deadly sieges, defusing bombs and surviving shootings. 

In this episode of I Catch Killers, John shares what really happens at a siege, why justified shootings made him feel like a criminal and the brutal truth behind the country’s most elite policing unit.

Discover more about John Taylor’s book, Through Fear and Fire: The Explosive True Story of A Bomb Squad Veteran, here.
