If the Australian judicial system was about justice, the judge would give 50-75% of all of Turnbull's holdings to Turner's widow as compensation asides from a jail sentence.
What a vile and money greedy individual. He deserves to never see the outside world again and his family should do everything they can to restore all that land back to nature. Greed is an awful terrible personality trait that I hope no one in the rest of that family share. How can he pleed not guilty!?
@@hazelparr8461how is it his right?! He murdered a person, that’s not a right for anyone but illegal no matter the situation! This is Australia not the USA, we have different laws here and I thought shooting a government worker is illegal anywhere!!
What if Farmer Turnbull figured out the real reason why land is being preserved? That one day humans won't be a allowed outside of cities without special permission. If this is indeed true he most certainly went about protesting it in the wrong way. No one deserves this type of obvious murder yet we could be the ones who are the frogs simmering in the pot instead.
@@thearmchairjournalist566 I'm saying that legally he has a right to plead not guilty but talking morally how he can really plead not guilty? It's so obvious he's guilty. On a side note I'm not from the USA.
That old farmer shall rot in hell for what he did to glen turner. Such a cold blooded and callous murderer. Glen was simply doing his job and making sure that no farmer was unlawfully clearing land.
Lol, wut? He just ran around the car trying not to get shot. He did nothing of any value. Even he admits Glen kept telling him get me out of here and he didn't.
Heartbreaking! This victim was not just doing his job, he was a warrior for mother earth. The narrator talked about how much money destroying the native trees would make. The perpetrator was already wealthy, it appears he was also greedy, with authority issues and unaware that native forests are a priceless necessity to a healthy ecosystem. Of course the perpetrator would not care about the environment since he had no respect for the life of this brave father and husband.
At 81, I'd venture to guess he was well aware of the priceless necessity of native forests for a healthy ecosystem. He simply didn't care. More money for him was far more important then forests or even human life.
It's not unaware, it's I don't care. Greed has been destroying our planet for years and the ones with the money know exactly what they have been doing., it is just horrible that this truly decent man's blood was spilled over avarice.
Absolutely horrific. The son’s of the vile murderer should hold their heads in shame. The conversations with him while in prison is beyond vile. That poor wife and children and the co worker left with life consequences.
What the Hell did He Think He was going to Achieve by Murdering Glen,Totally Selfish Individual Who Has Caused a Lot of Grief. I can’t Imagine How Terrifying It was for Glen and Robert.
I remember when this happened and it was a shocking moment for the community that a person just doing their job would be murdered like that! Sincere condolences to the family 💜
How absolutely horrific. Greed that turned to hate drove that man to utterly cruelty and cold blooded murder. Was it worth it ? SO f*cked up. Glen was in the right and had done nothing wrong at all. His poor poor family and friends, and poor Robert having to live through all that .
His farm his money and the farm and money of his family. They should be left destitute. Put him in solidarity confinement for life. And every so often remind him of what he did not only to Glen but to his own family and estate. That might seem harsh. But these people were already millionaires. But too much was not enough.
It takes a lot to shock me now but this story has. What a greedy old coot! The fine of $140,000 is inadequate for the value his vandalism adds to the property and the trees should all be replanted.
Absolutely. Filthy pieces of work all those whose only engine is greed. After the devastating fires that AU lived through a capital years ago, and the planet currently burning with fires and war, it is more important ever to plant trees.
Especially when you consider that $140,000 would represent the sale of one herd of cattle on one day at the sales. A lot of these rural land holders went to exclusive schools in the big City centers.Same places most Judges etc went to school ...
Glen’s family should follow up with a big fat civil suit, buy the land and plant so many trees that they erase the memory of the farmer and his greed..
Omg. This is awful. Glenns wife deserves 75% of turnballs estate!! Toss him in jail for life and give glenns wife the estate to support her and the kids.
D'NO IF YOU CAN CALL HIM A 'MAN' THERE USED TO BE RULES 'CODE OF CONDUCT' TO BE A MAN LIKE 'DONT KICK A MAN WHEN HE IS DOWN' SHOOTING AN UNARMED MAN AND IN THE BACK....WHAT A COWARD GREED TO BOOT....RUBBISHING THE FAMILY NAME..INCREDIBLE HOW THE VALUES OF THE PAST THAT MADE A MAN A MAN HAVE BEEN LOST😒😠
I can only say how you felt and he knew you tried your best so plz don't torture yourself he knew you tried god bless you sweet heart sorry you had to go through that you are a strong man. Hope you all the best. god lv you x
So sad, if anyone knows if the wife needs a hand on the farm, I am available as I just retired from the police after 22 and would love to work on the land
I'm sure there's people like the detectives that could get a message to her. Just give them her husbands name tell them what you want. They than will do a back ground check. Good luck to you. Senseless crime and Heartbreaking!
What a senseless and brutal death poor Glen had to suffer, and suffer he did, and all because of some lunatic's greed. Turnbull decided what he was going to do the minute he heard the Glen and Robert were in the area. He didnt give a damn when he was told that Glen had a young family, he just wanted his revenge. Tbf he didnt even think about his own family. I pray none of them turn out like him. God Bless you Glen, you didn't deserve this. And poor Robert, what he witnessed will never be erased from his memory and I'm sure he asks himself daily about all the "what ifs" god help him. RIP Glen 😢
I lived at Yambin (Ian Turnbull's family farm) as a kid and was friends with Ian Turnbull's boys. This came as a shock to me but to be honest I hadn't seen Ian for many years. There was a lot of tension with regards to the boys in relation to the farms. I doubt that the boys deserve any of this, infact, at least 1 had been removed from the inheritance. Its sad that someone lost their life and 2 families suffered but Ian's sons had nothing to do with it
Feel for the family that never got the chance to see their children grow with there dad.. Good will punish him. Hope you are doing fine now. Be strong kids my heart goes out too you allnx
The Killer died in jail. A farmer who gunned down a NSW environment officer during a protracted and terrifying ordeal has been jailed for at least 24 years. Glen Turner had been shot three times by 78-year-old farmer Ian Turnbull - a man hellbent on revenge, and who died in prison. “He shot an innocent man, twice,” Robert, the only witness to the murderous 20-minute game of cat-and-mouse Turnbull played with the pair, and was shown on Sunday Night program. Ian Turnbull, then 81, used a hunting rifle to murder Glen Turner, 51, who was on public land with a colleague on July 29, 2014, near the farmer’s property at Croppa Creek in the NSW’s north. The murder prosecution and legal proceedings in the Land and Environment Court for alleged illegal land clearing had put his family under immense financial pressure, and took aim at the Native Vegetation Act. By the time Turnbull had been fined $140,000 plus costs over the illegal clearing in 2011, Glen had become, in his mind, his nemesis, the focus of a hate bordering on obsession.
Urban shootings called gang violence is described as the thug life. A farmer who murders or suburban shootings involve a psychological profile and defense.
Because we already know the theory re that demographic : generational poverty, dysfunction & violence , as a norm. Suburban or other shootings aren't a norm, so they get more attention & analysed etc.
Glen Turner' friend and fellow worker is the nicest Australian man I have ever seen .He was very brave and I wish him well The cowardly git will not die on his own land Sinead Cornwall
The Australian government provided aid for those who could produce gain and work the land..... Proper management of fields, clearing property of dence woodlands to create more useable areas...There is a balance between irrigation, water rights, animal habitat, extra......This is a crime of greed, sadistic behavior of a individual who chose to go beyond the laws of man, God laws, laws of nature......
Sad, sad and it shows how insufficient the means of the justice system are. The Turnbull family have partly achieved what they wanted. I think a sentence such as: "You have to turn half of your property into native forest" and until then your patriarch stays in prison would have far more impressed the family. The reason for the crime was money/property and if people so obviously demonstrate that they cannot fulfil their obligations to society that comes with this property then take it off them.
This situation arose because Glen Turner was relentlessly pursuing the farmer on the actions that he could take regarding his own property. It is highly likely that they were subjecting the farmer to undue pressure, which ultimately became excessive, leading the farmer to snap due to the relentless harassment. It may be prudent for those in authority to reflect critically on their methods of exerting control over individuals and compelling them to adhere to a specific narrative. Accountability is essential in this context. The persistent harassment of an elderly individual to the point of provoking a reaction could indeed be classified as elder abuse.
Terrible case for Glen's family and his oh so loyal friend. Sadly the Australian justice system is soft but as the killer is in his 80s he won't see freedom again. Thankfully he was not a younger man. RIP Glen, and best regards to your friends and family.
@@chickenlover657 first, robert didnt RUN. he repositioned himself in an effort to protect glen's life while he negotiated in vain for medical help. he stood up to a killer with a rifle which indeed took courage. the killer was not after robert, he was after glen. IF robert ran he wouldnt have been shot, so yes it took courage to stay and risk it by standing between the killer and glen. ur being very mean.
@@rosemaryus-ct6151 If you actually LISTENED to the video you would have heard Robert himself say how he went around the car and pushed Glen to do the same even tho he was wounded.

Don't ask him about world affairs though, he'll grow more creases below his forehead. ... and his Yokel chip-on-the-shoulder Disorder would kick in fast. Glen Turner was just too smart for him, ad that Hillbilly-Gene got triggered.
There's an attitude common to wealthy farming families that I've come across ( having lived and worked in that area for a number of years ) that is almost beyond belief. They seem to think that the law doesn't apply to them. It appears to me that they think they can do whatever they want and woe betide anyone who challenges their regime. The EPA workers would've been seen as very subordinate and subject to whatever treatment Turnbull considered appropriate at the time. Hard to believe, but probably true.
the killer should have at least also lost the use of the property in question for farming purposes and had it all turned to forest. this would have had a much bigger impact on the killer than merely facing a jail cell. a greedy man only understands the measure of a dollar. im america, criminals are not allowed to benefit financially from their crimes.
Robert is a true hero!! He did everything a man could and put his life and limb at risk. My thoughts are with that humble man, and his friend’s loved ones! 💙🩷❤️🩵
With all the millions he must have in the bank, land as far as the eye can see, yet his obsessive-compulsive disorder got the better of his reasoning. Fancy choosing to share a cell with 3 psychopaths and a toilet for the remainder of one's days, instead of enjoying the twilight years in comfort, peace and quiet! Yes, as the saying goes: "There's no fool like an old fool". Too true! His grandchildren must now bear the stigma of a murderer for grandfather, society will never allow them to forget, their big money is actually BLOOD stained money. What a disgrace!
Don’t judge until you have walked in his shoes . If you think the government department didn’t intimidate, bully , harass and provoke this man then you would be wrong . His family might also remember him as a man who gave up his freedom to fight for what is right . Sometimes hiding behind a government title and being on a power trip won’t guarantee your safety . Everyone has a breaking point .
@@deanwitt7903 A moral crusader, according to you? Fighting for the right to destroy trees and upset biodiversity with his monocrop farming methods? When he already owned far more land than any one family should have the right to own? Well, he is just as incarcerated as if he'd been wrong.
In these cases the perpetrator should be given third degree treatment in police custody and send to a prison in the outbacks for the rest of his life without bail. They should make a prison in the outbacks for murderers like him in the outbacks.This should be publicly shown to instill fear and discpline. Mental conditions or psycopaths exist in America/Australia or UK, it will not prevail in UAE or Saudi Arabia/Singapore because they will be hanged to death for sure. Fear is the best method of discipline they use in UAE so crime rate is below 0.7%. Unfortunately the laws are flawed so evil things like this will continue till they overhaul the system.
They give the death penalty in the US and they have 10 times the crime we do here in Aus. Can’t say I agree here. In saying that an eye for an eye seems to work lol
Just reading about this online (SMH. Good Weekend. by Kate Holden May 28 2021). Apparently Turnbull died in prison in 2017, having served just one year of his sentence. Also, he was not without his supporters around Moree, with many regarding him as the victim.
Greed is the curse of our time but it won't help if there is no air to breathe when the wealthy careless people cut down the trees that producing our oxygene.
How shocking condolences to the family, very fortunate for the other man to be left alive - I am surprised I did not hear of this case previously, as I'm from NSW.
I can't think what he thought he would gain by killing this man. I guess in his mind he thought Glen Turner was the one to blame and maybe this might have been due to the way Glen might have conducted himself doing his job. Some people in authority do get carried away with their power and become bombastic. I am not saying Glen was either of these things but it does make you realize that people with authority should exercise their power in a polite and considerate way rather than go at it like a bull at a gate. I didn't know Glen and I understand he was a wonderful person so I am not for one moment suggesting Glen did anything other than do his job in the right way. The old man got what he deserved and will die where he belongs but no matter how long he serves in prison, it doesn't bring back Glen to live out his life as he deserved to do. RIP Glen. This stupid murderer not only ruined Glen's family life but also ruined his own family.
There's no excuse so plz don't feel sorry for him feel for the poor. An that died that night. Hope he suffers on day of judge ment let god show no mercy on his horrable soul 😊
Ian Turnbell had 1 purpose & that was to remove the very purpose of Glenn Turner stopping his business from expanding for that process of crime conquences of one actions too confiscate the farm to paid victims of crime for the lost of husband father for his family and that will hurt but too bad they hurt a father going about doing his job & never came home.

What a hideous experience for Robert Strange to endure seeing, any wonder he has ptsd, poor man.,I hope he is coping ok despite his awful memories 😢. It's just so sad. The sentence was just, the old guy where he belongs...locked up away from hurting anyone else!!!

I suggest you add the sound of barking dogs, low flying jets, rocket launches and crying wolves, to help people watch your documentaries. I regularly talk to my friends without adding any background music and they are probably too embarrassed to tell me they can't understand a word I was saying.😮
I think a measly fine he had to pay vs the millions he had would have been a drop in a bucket but greed reared its ugly head and now he is where the devil put him
Then irony is, the only person that thinks he's special is the murderer Ian Turnbull.A coward whos greed led to a senseless killing.
That’s a evil man to literally torture this man who is unarmed and defenseless!!!

There's an attitude common to wealthy farming families that I've come across ( having lived and worked in that area for a number of years ) that is almost beyond belief. They seem to think that the law doesn't apply to them. It appears to me that they think they can do whatever they want and woe betide anyone who challenges their regime. The EPA workers would've been seen as very subordinate and subject to whatever treatment Turnbull considered appropriate at the time. Hard to believe, but probably true.
It's been that way since day dot in Australia. Rich farmers who choose to believe they have a god given right to destroy nature.
Is it posdible in ausyralia to take out a civil suit against this monster and his family.?
I am so every sorry for the family and friends of this kinda man pray Jesus is with them
The music is distracting
The music is so loud it's hard to hear the dialog. Especially for us non_australians.
the killer should have at least also lost the use of the property in question for farming purposes and had it all turned to forest. this would have had a much bigger impact on the killer than merely facing a jail cell. a greedy man only understands the measure of a dollar. im america, criminals are not allowed to benefit financially from their crimes.
Robert is a true hero!! He did everything a man could and put his life and limb at risk. My thoughts are with that humble man, and his friend’s loved ones! 💙🩷❤️🩵
Incredibly 😢 sad
I agree about the background music, its very annoying. You can also hear it in news broadcasts and adverts??
With all the millions he must have in the bank, land as far as the eye can see, yet his obsessive-compulsive disorder got the better of his reasoning. Fancy choosing to share a cell with 3 psychopaths and a toilet for the remainder of one's days, instead of enjoying the twilight years in comfort, peace and quiet!
Yes, as the saying goes: "There's no fool like an old fool". Too true!
His grandchildren must now bear the stigma of a murderer for grandfather, society will never allow them to forget, their big money is actually BLOOD stained money. What a disgrace!
Don’t judge until you have walked in his shoes . If you think the government department didn’t intimidate, bully , harass and provoke this man then you would be wrong . His family might also remember him as a man who gave up his freedom to fight for what is right . Sometimes hiding behind a government title and being on a power trip won’t guarantee your safety . Everyone has a breaking point .
@@deanwitt7903 A moral crusader, according to you? Fighting for the right to destroy trees and upset biodiversity with his monocrop farming methods? When he already owned far more land than any one family should have the right to own? Well, he is just as incarcerated as if he'd been wrong.
@@deanwitt7903Found one! Lol
He had to pay 10M to Glen family
Just over $4 million dollars, not $10 million dollars.
In these cases the perpetrator should be given third degree treatment in police custody and send to a prison in the outbacks for the rest of his life without bail. They should make a prison in the outbacks for murderers like him in the outbacks.This should be publicly shown to instill fear and discpline. Mental conditions or psycopaths exist in America/Australia or UK, it will not prevail in UAE or Saudi Arabia/Singapore because they will be hanged to death for sure. Fear is the best method of discipline they use in UAE so crime rate is below 0.7%. Unfortunately the laws are flawed so evil things like this will continue till they overhaul the system.
They give the death penalty in the US and they have 10 times the crime we do here in Aus. Can’t say I agree here. In saying that an eye for an eye seems to work lol
@@silman5015but the population is 24 times more, so its less for per capita stats
If it was supposedly just snapping then he wouldn’t have kept pursuing the guy to finish him off
As awful as this shooting was , I can't understand how Turnball struggled to end his life chasing a wounded man around a car .
Just reading about this online (SMH. Good Weekend. by Kate Holden May 28 2021). Apparently Turnbull died in prison in 2017, having served just one year of his sentence. Also, he was not without his supporters around Moree, with many regarding him as the victim.
Yep I believe that. It's part of farming culture. They HATE anyone who tries to do the right thing by the environment.
Turn off the background music!!! Watched a couple minutes, too much trouble trying to hear the dialog with the constant loud music.
Typical greedy farmer
Greed is the curse of our time but it won't help if there is no air to breathe when the wealthy careless people cut down the trees that producing our oxygene.
Great title!
The farmer is so callous. My guess is he feels justified.
How shocking condolences to the family, very fortunate for the other man to be left alive - I am surprised I did not hear of this case previously, as I'm from NSW.
🙏❤️😭
Music too loud, like the Spotlight show.
I can't think what he thought he would gain by killing this man. I guess in his mind he thought Glen Turner was the one to blame and maybe this might have been due to the way Glen might have conducted himself doing his job. Some people in authority do get carried away with their power and become bombastic. I am not saying Glen was either of these things but it does make you realize that people with authority should exercise their power in a polite and considerate way rather than go at it like a bull at a gate. I didn't know Glen and I understand he was a wonderful person so I am not for one moment suggesting Glen did anything other than do his job in the right way. The old man got what he deserved and will die where he belongs but no matter how long he serves in prison, it doesn't bring back Glen to live out his life as he deserved to do. RIP Glen. This stupid murderer not only ruined Glen's family life but also ruined his own family.
He could well afford to pay the fines‼️
There's no excuse so plz don't feel sorry for him feel for the poor. An that died that night. Hope he suffers on day of judge ment let god show no mercy on his horrable soul 😊
For every action, there's an equal opposite reaction.
We can only pray that it's true
Ian Turnbell had 1 purpose & that was to remove the very purpose of Glenn Turner stopping his business from expanding for that process of crime conquences of one actions too confiscate the farm to paid victims of crime for the lost of husband father for his family and that will hurt but too bad they hurt a father going about doing his job & never came home.
Surely if they own the land they have the right to do as they choose. It seems there's one rule for some and other rules for others.
??are you watching a different video then the rest of us or ????
Unfortunately the music is louder than the people who are speaking… so I had to stop listening. 😢
This is assassination ! That farmer need locking up for life. His assets should be siezed and given to that widow. There is no justice.
This is the possibility of a civil suit from both the State and Alison.

Just horrific, that poor family losing him for no reason, just doing his job & ran into a psychopath.
What a hideous experience for Robert Strange to endure seeing, any wonder he has ptsd, poor man.,I hope he is coping ok despite his awful memories 😢. It's just so sad.
The sentence was just, the old guy where he belongs...locked up away from hurting anyone else!!!
Justice prevail. Sad.
She thinking of the safety of her children, on a farm.widowed no security guard
This is too sad
A greedy coward to the bitter end. I am sure his family was victimized by his pathetic need for more power & money.
I can absorb information without any background music!
Am I the only one who can do that?
I suggest you add the sound of barking dogs, low flying jets, rocket launches and crying wolves, to help people watch your documentaries.
I regularly talk to my friends without adding any background music and they are probably too embarrassed to tell me they can't understand a word I was saying.😮
Please don't play music. It's a great channel but the music is awful
Robert you are a brave man..
I think a measly fine he had to pay vs the millions he had would have been a drop in a bucket but greed reared its ugly head and now he is where the devil put him
Crazy... best wishes to all ✌🏼
What a vile man.
Greed😢😢😢😢😢😢
