Shortcut: An Old School Outlaw - Part One

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.

 

Former bank robber John Killick spent over 30 years behind bars and made headlines in 1999 when he escaped Sydney’s Silverwater prison by helicopter.

 

Across three episodes, he shares his incredible life story, from high-profile heists to encounters with Australia’s most notorious criminals.

 

Now an author of eight books, Killick reflects on love, crime, and survival inside the country’s toughest prisons.
