Robert Strange is the only survivor and witness to one of Australia's most cold-blooded murders.

He now suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, PTSD, and recurring nightmares about the day he watched his friend and colleague Glen Turner gunned down on the job by Ian Turnbull.

Glen Turner and Robert Strange were two environmental compliance officers working for the Department of Environment and Heritage.

Mr Strange held back tears recalling the final moments of his colleague and friend, Glen Turner.

The pair were held at gunpoint on a country road in New South Wales for 20 minutes while Ian Turnbull subjected them to a terrifying shooting spree.

The compliance officers’ jobs were to make sure farmers stuck to the rules that limited how much native vegetation they could clear.

The online funding will go towards an education program for rural people affected by PTSD. The funds will be used to establish an advertising campaign to make rural people suffering PTSD aware there are avenues to assist in recovery.
