In the early 1990's in the city of London, Ontario, Canada, a series of robberies and murders captured headlines across Canada.

At the horrific scene of the gun store the owner was shot in the head and killed and several customers and staff were shot and wounded.

His stepson tells this riveting story of being in the Witness Protection Program and the next 23 years of running and hiding. Now the life sentence is up for the gun store robbery and they're getting out. "Who will protect us?"
