I’m Mauricio Munoz from Aspendale. I’m the proud father of 3 fantastic kids whom you’ll ever meet (Imogen 21, Lex 18 and Rhen 16), I’ve been married to Michelle for over 20 years. Everything in our lives was going as good as anyone could have wished for; our kids were doing well at school and behaving like responsible young adults. We had finally started renovating our home, life was sweet! However, on a relatively warm evening in July 2013, my whole life was turned upside down in a space of a few seconds.
