 I AM never again going to mention his name.

It’s got me into enough trouble. Got me into solitary confinement under maximum security for two weeks in the Melbourne Assessment Prison.

In future, I’ll call him JMK — Jill Meagher’s Killer.

I know even more about him now — about how he lives and what he does every day — than I did when I wrote a blog that ended up in a contempt of court conviction and a record $100,000 fine, which I refused to pay on principle.

And that led to 50 days behind bars.

In that time, not only our paths crossed.

Only cells apart, on the same floor at MAP, was rapist-killer Leslie Camilleri and weeks later, after being transferred to the Langi Kal Kal Prison farm in country Victoria, I distastefully spent time with the notorious “Hot Chocolate rapist” Harry Barkas.

(He was one of the 93 per cent of my fellow inmates who were in there for sex offences.)

My only comment is I do not approve of the acronym given to Jill's killer.

Protect our Children

In Australia, the rights of convicted sex offenders seem to take precedence over victims' rights. Especially with paedophiles. Serial sex offenders have their names, photos and addresses, suppressed by the courts on release.

Unlike Megan's Law in the United States, communities have no knowledge as to who they are or where they are. A public register is a right and a national duty that is long overdue.

A very important fact for this thread and should have been mentioned in the other thread about this person re profiting from crime.

 yes, but they still benefit from printing the story regardless of who they pay. hinch benefits with a lift to his fading star. easily 10.000 worth of publicity. a creative loophole.

[cherry*135]

Yes, they do. People with convictions are allowed to do that though, they just can't be paid for it/profit from it ($$).

Hicks profited fom his terrorism activities and yet he wrote a book and profited from that.

Pretend that only maniacs engage in these crimes? The majority of sexual abuse is done by someone known to the victim. Worse still is that someone knows it is happening and doesn't do anything about it.

thats right.
