SIDEFFECT: A Light Shines through the Darkness

By Rodney Bridge

February 2013. Perth, Western Australia. Following his Year 12 school ball, Preston Bridge and his friends consumed synthetic LSD ordered online by a third party through the darknet website Silk Road. Suffering drug-induced psychosis, Preston jumped from a 2nd storey hotel room balcony. Preston lay in hospital in an induced coma and remained on life support for three days before his father Rod and Preston's mother Vicky made that hard decision to turn off his life support system. What followed was a father's mission to uncover how his son got his hands on the dangerous research chemical drug. Travelling to China he finds himself at the centre of a dangerous undercover sting operation to expose China's deadly illegal drug manufacturing and distribution network. On returning to Australia, Rod continued his mission which resulted in the arrest of 21,000 people in China and the closing down of factories, websites and over 5 million social media outlets throughout the country.
