Who is Brenton Tarrant and why did he shoot up mosques? Brenton is the 28-year-old Australian-born
man, who unleashed terror at two Christchurch mosques that killed 50 and injured 50 Muslims during
Friday Prayer on March 15, 2019. But why? The simple explanation is that he felt New Zealand
authorities weren’t doing enough to control the invasion of immigrants, who he had seen destroy
Europe, what he considers the home of his ancestry. So, feeling fear and rage, he took matters into
his own hands. But, to simply call it Islamophobia doesn’t begin to explain this deeply troubled man
As is the pattern with terrorists, there were already signs of psychiatric problems in his childhood that
made him vulnerable to becoming a violent extremist later on. In this episode, you will hear about his
complex relationship with his divorced parents, especially his father who was an obsessed triathlon
competitor while Brenton was being bullied as the 'fat kid' in school. Brenton was so addicted to
video games that, according to his grandmother he “wet himself” to avoid interrupting his game.
You will hear about other bizarre behavior and traumas in his childhood, such as finding his father
dead after committing suicide, which sent Brenton on a trip around the world to find himself. Instead,
he found people and experiences that turned him into a terrorist “to take revenge on the invaders
for… deaths caused by foreign invaders in European lands."
