I am not a writer. I am a storey teller and the keeper of secrets. Above all, I am a fighter for human rights and civil rights. Witness A, is a powerful work of human endurance against the biggest bully in Australia, The Australian Federal Police. And the extreme lengths of torment, threats, punishment and abuse they placed Witness A and her family under whilst in their protection, in the National Witness Protection Program. All to protect their own even after death. Costing Witness A and her family far more than money could buy.It's been a long, hard and painful road, but we have finally made it through the dark tunnel? Did we find the light? Only a small, fractured, ray! This is a huge journey, with more to explore and more to risk. Witness A risked her family and her life to set an innocent man free. What I have on the risk table is nothing in comparison.
