>In the videos, they say they accessed the property to retrieve a drone.
Dammit I hate when my drone accidentally flies into the exact place that I want to upload a video about
Dezi was so free he had to live in a metal box after freely murdering a couple of people.
Unbelievable that people seem to idolise this murderous coward
Not the brightest bulbs in the chandelier, this lot…
I’m not giving them the views but were they there to celebrate him or enlighten people to how to hide from police? Because I can’t see a constructive reason to be filming inside there otherwise.
He was getting his clothes dry cleaned.
They’re going to have to get rid of that shipping container after the investigation is wrapped up like that bus from Into The Wild so it doesn’t turn into a cooker pilgrimage
> where fugitive Dezi Freeman made his last stand.
Jesus ABC, don’t call it a Last Stand. It needlessly glorifies a deadshit “alleged” paedo, cop-killer.
It’s been a few weeks. Surely by now the police have had time to go through everything in that shipping container with a fine tooth comb, photograph everything, remove what they need and then put the whole damn thing on the back of a truck that’s designed to transport shipping containers and get it into some sort of police storage facility.
If it’s still there and in the state he/they left it, what tf do they expect?
Also unsure how it’s disrespectful to the cops he killed for YouTubers to be filming in there.
the “drone” excuse isn’t going to hold water, looking for a drone doesn’t require anyone to poke about inside a shipping container while taking video.
that said, my understanding of trespassing is that any complaint of it would need to come from the property owner, or the police can go stuff it – they can’t unilaterally decide to take action. the exception being it was still sealed as a crime scene.
The video if anyone wants to see it before it probably gets taken down.

The people who filmed this video look like the biggest fuckwits but it’s still interesting to see inside, also skip the first 14 minutes it’s just them talking bullshit and walking across a field to the site. There’s only like 5 minutes of good footage in total.
That’s sick I wanna see the videos
lol of course its Leif
Are A Current Affair and Today Tonight still a thing? They’d both be spewing someone else got in and got the footage first
The furnishings? I wonder if the main bits: sofas, wooden table & the kitchen cupboards/storage was the stuff all already all in situ?
The rest DF’s provided by someone local to help him make it habitable & 💡⚡ and powered up?
The old bloke (the neighbour’s brother) who’s now re-located to Tassie as an elder gent for family and Health reasons by all accounts, certainly had a dreary spartan uncomfortable existence that DF conveniently appropriated.
No consequences for the tv channel that broadcast the footage though, I bet
This is even dumber than those dumb fucks who filmed themselves illegally scuttling that boat.
I used to watch this youtuber. He’s an ex-prisoner who started off telling all sorts of wild and (possibly true) stories of Australian crime figures and the awful stuff that happens in prison. Then, inside of maybe 3 or 4 videos fell into the cooker rabbit hole, and his channel and audience turned feral overnight.
