Summary

Episode 109 Michael Scardifield

40 year-old Michael Scardifield, a beloved father, son, and brother known as 'Milky', was violently attacked and murdered by someone he considered to be a friend on May 30, 2015 in Stoke-On-Trent, England. Without warning, he was choked to death. Witnesses saw this 'friend' Martin Birchall leaving the scene, and overheard him saying "I think I just killed Milky". He was arrested, tried and convicted for Michael's murder, but the fact he is behind bars is of little comfort to Michael's family & friends. They can't fill the void that Michael's death has created, and they have never gotten clear answers as to why Michael was taken from them. Michael's brother, Eugene Scardifield discusses Michael's life and tragic death, and opens up about the impact his loss has had on their family.
