About the episode

An aspiring rapper, battling drug addiction raided a home in inner Sydney in August 2018. Armed with a blank-firing pistol and knuckledusters, 30-year-old Jett McKee broke into the home of Blake Davis, a 31-year-old actor and martial arts enthusiast, and Hannah Quinn, a 26-year-old former kindergarten teacher.   McKee fled after the robbery and was chased down….with Davis later striking him with a samurai sword killing him. The ensuing NSW Supreme Court trial, in late 2020, had to consider self-defense, excessive force, and what occurred after the robbery, culminating in a manslaughter conviction for Davis and an accessory conviction for Quinn. A warning: this episode includes mention of self harm.  If you or someone you know needs someone to talk to, call LifeLine on 13 11 14See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
