Sopping in his fathers blood, Eddy swore revenge on his fathers death and went on a hunt. 2 months of searching......finally Eddy found his fathers killer.
In a middle of a shopping center in Ballarat Eddy put 5 bullets threw the mans skull. Standing there crying......an emotional wreck. Eddy was arrested and charged with murder.
