What fucking bullshit
From nothing to nothing
Psychopath behaviour intending to hurt people and allowed to go free back into the public
The court’s are a joke
I feel like his sentence speaks to the broader sentiment towards cyclists in Australia as second-class citizens.
This is totally unacceptable.
Why was he charged with “likely to cause harm” when he did cause harm?
There’s plenty of psychopaths out there and the vast majority never end up where they truly belong. The list is miles long. This is yet another psychopath who avoided having to look through steel bars like too many of them.
And yet for cases like this there is a very good argument for mandatory sentencing.
Special kind of psycho to lay traps for people bur sure let’s just let him walk around
What a fucking rort
God I hope these cyclists take him to civil court and clear him out.
But women who have serious mental health crisis get treated like criminals. Meanwhile criminals can go out and be criminals. This is why women do not feel safe with men. We have to be on guard wondering if any of you are this type of dangerous to us.
Feel like this is a copout considering he hurt 3 people and could have killed 4.
He better have at least paid for the $50k worth of property damage.
Holy $50k damage to the bikes. I hope they recover it personally from him
“But he’s such a good boy” 🙄
The law needs to change to get these people committed. Where is all the hand wringing nanny state for this kind of stuff
The purpose of a system is what it does. No one learnt the lessons the weimar court system and their collaboration tried to tell us. Judges serve to reinforce the current system of power.
Lucky he didn’t say he supported Palestine.
What a fucking joke. Usually I’m quite lenient and very willing to give people a second chance. But this is an utter farce
Outrageous. He plotted and caused serious harm or murder.
How’s his lawyer defending the devil emoji?
Don’t think this will be the last time he’s in the headlines, especially now that he knows he can get off
Trespassed an abandoned facility? Jail.
Smoked some weed? Jail.
Said “From the river to the sea” in QLD? Straight to jail.
Premeditated bodily harm/murder? Slap on the wrist.
I would genuinely like to know why this isn’t considered attempted manslaughter at the very least (which is recognised as a seperste crime in south australia)
We need to keep putting more people in prison. Despite all the evidence that it leads to more crime, we need to punish people rather than prevent crime, it’s just the right thing to do.
My mum used to work as a physio for people with disabilities. Told me years ago of a man she was treating who was largely paralysed because someone had put a wire across a cycle path at neck height. This guy is so lucky no one was seriously hurt or he’d be facing massive jail time. Got off lightly.
Teach him what a Garrote is and see if he would want to experience that – hopefully it would change his mind on doing such stupid behaviors…
I hope a cyclist catches him in the act
20yo mind you, not a 15 or 16yo kid. How is this an adequate deterrent? The victims must be ropeable. He’s obviously a dangerous weirdo and could have killled somebody.
I don’t believe in Karma but I hope Karma gets him
have people forgotten about setting an example so other psychopaths will think twice about doing shit cunt things?
