I have lived in Melbourne all my life. Our justice system is broken. I was brutally beaten and robbed in the CBD by a male and a female. Ambo's came, police came. I made a statement, picked out the guy, he was known to them. Then....NOTHING HAPPENED. He got off, totally free. The powers that be DO NOT CARE about law abiding citizens or visitors. I am SO SORRY for the families and loved one's of these people who died in preventable, violent and completely unnecessary murders. I'd also like to thank Greg Davies for always speaking up for victims of crime.

And it is thus in most of the so-called "Civilised-West" where we continually delude ourselves that habitual criminals with violent tendencies are somehow "Re-deem able" Tell that to the innocent victims...such as these.... absolutely appalling shoddy governance.... from the top, down.

2012 Australia - An Irish man settled well in Australia and later he was killed in Australia. The Irish man set up a jewellery shop in Hastings about 45 miles from Melbourne city. One day the shop was robbed and the 64 year old Irish man named Dermott O Toole was killed trying to save his wife Bridget. I remember this murder and the terror and the trauma and the agony and the pain of the victims wife. The killer named Gavin Perry 27 years of age with a criminal history was caught and jailed for 27 years. The parole boards who release killers to the community to kill again should be charged with murder or manslaughter.

What a beautiful family~ So sad.

Shouldn´t previous convictions weigh on new sentences? Someone who commits horrible crimes like these, is imprisoned and once released commits violent crimes again, should never let out of prison.

My heart started breaking hearing that Bridgett & Dermot had met when they were 6, so when the photo was shown at 3:09 i really choked up. I instantly knew it was taken at an airport before she said anything because i have some just like it. Taken 3 years earlier & in a different airport than hers, but strangely enough, the same destination, except Perth, not Melbourne. My dad was transferred when i was 12 & we stayed 3 years. So we left, just as they arrived. Seeing that group shot of family & friends brought on a wave of mixed up emotions. Remembering what i felt then added to the deep sadness of Bridgette's loss. Two years ago, i lost my partner of 15 years, barely 6 weeks after being diagnosed with leukemia. It was an overwhelming shock, made worse by not being allowed to visit because of covid, but at least i had a few weeks to get used to the idea before she died. After spending, literally, a lifetime together, Dermot's death must have been excruciating. Will have to watch this some other time, not a good idea just before bed.

Is it that archaic to wish death on those who take someone you love? I’m not saying I’d repay the act if someone killed someone I loved but I damn well would consider it if they didn’t get life Vengeance is biblical. It’s part of what makes us human. We should all repay acts of kindness, live by the golden rule and so id argue the opposite to be equally as true. People commit great wrongs should be repaid with similar suffering. Do unto others as you would have done onto oneself.

You want to find forgiveness not so much for the murderer but for yourself. It's so hard to be angry and full of hatred. It feels awful. These killers are horrible people. They deserve to be locked up for their entire lives. Letting them lose is insane in my opinion. It's setting up everyone for failure. There needs to be a complete overhaul of every justice system. They should be same, so there is no place you can hide from the authorities. It should be aimed towards rehabilitation if possible, otherwise the murderous, the cruel and the molesters should lose their life to an institution until they die.

So if criminals take into consideration whether a crime will net them 2 years in jail or 20 years, what on earth would make you believe this same premise wouldn’t apply to the death penalty? A criminal will oftentimes think about, perhaps sometimes even reconsider a crime based on doing an extra ten years in prison so why wouldn’t a portion also reconsider if the death penalty was on the table?

Why, if the law says, ‘x amount’ of time must be served, why then do we give them, he must serve a percentage of the time, in order to gain parole.

I totally agree.... The system is completely rubbish. You cannot rehabilitate a murderer within a few short years of them behaving like "model prisoners" (Whatever that is supposed to mean?) so why take the risk? And add to this, my argument, where is the punishment value? You kill someone: You are punished. Be a model prisoner all you like: Society will punish you. Justifiably! Stop being a "model prisoner" and society will expect you to serve even more years...... I honestly do not get this concept: Give someone, say 5 years....but if he behaves...let him/her out after 2.5 years? What? No.!.... NO NO NO! You got 5 years: If you don't behave ...we will ADD time to your sentence.... Just stop this silly Carrot-Donkey scenario! This is exactly what has occurred here in Australia. And three innocent people are dead. Thanks to this ridiculous sentencing "agreements"....... To be honest: I think all three should have faced the death penalty: But that's another argument, I guess. (If the death penalty was in force in Australia: How many of these three victims would still be alive............Mmm?)

"A robbery gone dreadfully wrong"? could you give me an example of a robbery gone right, of even of a robbery that DIDN'T go wrong? The expression is an absurdity, like "in the wrong place at the wrong time."

And still the justice system in Australia is an absolute disgrace 🤬

Agree it's a joke.

18 years. Justice is not done. This man when he is set free will attack again. He is a ticking time bomb.

I just love an Irish accent, my thoughts go out to the friends and family, I am glad justice was found at last for Dermot and his adoring loved ones, this really is devastating 😢, so luke was a pos,and received a short sentence! he should suffer each minute of his life, rip Davie. These sentences are absolutely shocking, take a life you get life, and I believe the death pentality should be world wide.

This is horrendous, didn’t know about this. This is gut wrenching. I live in North Queensland and visited Melbourne eighteen months ago for the first time and never felt uncomfortable or unsafe. It’s a wonderful city. I’m so sorry this happened to these lovely people 😢

How does that work I'm in Australia and robbing a place does not constitute slashing an old lady and stabbing a bloke to death 24 year us nothing you take a life you should yet life

There are some real animals out there.

how a low-life can do such things ..... bring back capitol punishment

To this day, there has been no accountability from the parole board for letting those monsters out

~ The O’Tooles are a very articulate family. I’m so sorry for all of these family members, for their profound loss…♥️

Our police services dedicate so much time and skill to apprehend these violent criminals only to have them given light sentences AND released early. How frustrating! How distressing! How disheartening to then be called to a violent crime perpetrated by someone who should still be behind bars! My deepest sympathy for the families left behind and for the police and first responders who have to deal with the aftermath.

This made me cry. So sad, so senseless.

2023 and NOTHING has changed!

Soo sad, at the time l lived not too far away. I heard on the news what happened and we were all soo surprised as Hastings is just a small beach town. It's always the good people go first while lowlifes live on. R.I.P

Couldnt finish watching this. So frustrating to know how judiciary system/members make decisions that causes damage to the very society they ought to protect. Do these judges have remorse? Have they ever had someone for them killed so theyll know how it feels?

why does this happen? Why do they let these guys out so they can offend again when they know it is highly likely to happen? Is it about economics? - the cost of holding prisoners?

I have lost my husband in Melbourne I think due to negligent driving, I couldn't see him because I injured and unconscious. I have a very bad memory of a beautiful city.

I just read up your tragic story and hope you are doing better now. Your right most likely driver was negligent. I hate it how people say accident when generally they don't happen without some form of negligence behaviour. The driver must have been distracted but it would be hard to prove unlike alcohol or drugs. The only other solution is to mandate inside hardwired dashcams. Hopefully the driver got some sort of punishment and the only lesson is to always be aware of surroundings and make sure cars stop before crossing. I notice a lot of people are doing that, they won't cross until cars come to a full stop and I don't blame them. Hope you can visit Antarctica.

May you be united in heaven when the time comes.

A Beautiful Song at the End!

18 years is a joke, he should go away forever

Idk why but this one hurt. That comment she made at the end about the chocolate just shows how deeply she loved every single ounce of him. 😥

rip to the victims in this horror story's

So heart wrenching 😢 Be strong family

How sad for the families. Beautiful song at the end, does anyone know the name of it.

The song is called Heal And the guy that sings it is Tom Odell.

Bridge's injuries were not serious enough? How ridiculous! She was stabbed multiple times! Unbelievable. He only got 27 years? What?
