Scott Austic seemed like a likeable, knockabout bloke – a loving father, a good son and a loyal mate. Then he was charged with murder, found guilty and sentenced to a minimum of 25 years. The tragedy is that Scott Austic could be an innocent man. He’s languished in jail for 10 long years for a crime he probably didn’t commit.
In May 2020, Austic was granted a retrial. On November 20, 2020, Scott Austic was found not guilty of Stacey Thorne’s murder.
