Summary

John Killick fed his gambling addiction by robbing banks in the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, but this career criminal entered a new phase when he met Russian immigrant Lucy Dudko at a party in 1995. Infamously remembered for his part in an audacious and desperate escape from prion in a helicopter, today he stands as a man in balance with the community, surrounded by supportive family and friends around him. On the Inside is John's story about being in some of Australia's most infamous prisons . Silverwater, Bathurst, Goulbourn Supermax; the conditions inside and the people he met there . The Backpacker Murderer Ivan Milat, Graeme Thorne Kidnapper Steven Bradley; the last man hanged in Australia, Ronald Ryan, but also many unknown stories. This is John Killick at his best: raw, confronting and redemptive. In prison, John was able to participate in courses that helped him manage his addiction and put him on the right road for successful rehabilitation
