It is a failure of justice that this scumbag would be allowed back into our community. A high risk to re-offend, a diagnosed pe*****le and Territory Attorney-General Selena Uibo did not even bother replying to questions.
"A serial s*x offender who kidnapped and assaulted his three-year-old granddaughter could be back on the streets of Tennant Creek next year, despite a judge warning that he was a high risk of reoffending and could not access treatment or support.
Doctors who examined the man concluded he suffered cognitive impairment and displayed behaviour “consistent with a diagnosis of paedophilia”.
He was at risk of recidivism, particularly for s*x offences, and would require “intensive supervision” to mitigate “a significant risk of harm” to the community. However, there was “no real appropriate support … and no realistic treatment plans” available, Justice Hiley said.
A spokeswoman for Territory Attorney-General Selena Uibo did not respond to questions."
