Wendy Scurr is a nurse who has spent a long time helping people.

In 1996, she was working as a nurse at Port Arthur in Australia, which is a place that tourists come to visit. One day, on 28 April 1996, a man started shooting at people at the Broad Arrow Cafe. Wendy Scurr rushed in to see the man who was killing people and she called the police to tell them. Police did not believe her, so she told them to listen to the gun shots. Wendy Scurr has given great details about what really happened, more than anyone else. Wendy Scurr says that the man that police say killed all of these people, a man called Martin Bryant, is not the person that killed the people.

Wendy Scurr was very angry that Martin Bryant was arrested, because she says that the person that was killing people was a very good shooter who was very clever. She has formed a group with many other people that were at Port Arthur to make sure that people do not believe such a simple story. Wendy Scurr has gone to talk to many people in wide groups, together with some policemen who were there, to show to them what really happened. Many other people who were there have also agreed with her.

A man named Walter Mikac is the only person who was there that does not agree with Wendy Scurr. Walter Mikac says that he did not see the person who killed everyone, but he is very sad anyway. Walter Mikac's wife and 2 baby children were killed that day. Walter Mikac does not care who goes to jail, and does not want people to find out the truth. The Australian government has told people to listen to Walter Mikac and not to listen to Wendy Scurr.

Wendy Scurr says that she thinks that we should try to find out the truth, and not arrest the wrong person.

One policeman that has helped Wendy Scurr is a man named Andrew MacGregor. An expert gunsmith that has helped Wendy Scurr is a man named Stewart Beattie. In addition, many people who were there have agreed to support Wendy Scurr to find out the truth of what happened.
