  • Summary

  • Kevin Knowles was a brute, a thug and a suspected double murderer. 

    Kirkstall was a lovely county town inhabited mainly by young families looking to build a safe and caring community. That is until Knowles moved into town. 

    Travis Cashmore was a quiet hippy type bloke, well regarded by the locals. Driven to breaking point by Knowles, Cashmore took the law into his own hands, killing Knowles, one of his mates, and then took his own life.

    Col Ryan is a long-time local detective, councillor and mayor. Col tells us the inside story.
