  • The Ant Hill Kids : Roch Thériault
    Jun 2 2025
    Season 21 : Strange & Unusual

    Roch Thériault was a charismatic man who made people believe every word he said. He started by promoting healthy living, but eventually his message turned to violence and control. Like many people who start cults, Roch was only interested in what benefited himself and he would go to extreme measures to get it.

Agree with all you’ve said!!

The events at the Broad Arrow are known to every Australian, but I’m not entirely sure we remember all of the other events that surround the main shooting. I’m not a believer in the death penalty for numerous reasons, but especially not in this particular case. I hope Nitram stays alive as long as possible, because just as he caused hell on earth for so many people that weekend, he also caused it for himself. He will never feel acceptance or understanding or friendship and I hope he knows that and feels it every second of everyday. This is his hell on earth, and I hope it’s just as painful for him as the hell he’ll be in once he dies.
