I went to an exhibit today on what is without a doubt Australia's worst murder case in all of our history. I have spent years reading up on crime all through the last 200 years or so, and from all over the world, and none I think equals the abhorance of the Anita Cobby murder. That's personal opinion, but this personal opinion is a major player in my reasons to support in selected cases, the re-introduction of capital punishment. People talk about rehabilitation and resocialising offenders. I dont really believe that is plausible in general, but unfortunately every so often cases arise where there is just NO CHANCE at all that these offenders can become anything more than savages. A man withour remorse is a soul lost forever. You cannot teach remorse or compassion when it doesn't exist in your being. I had the (dis)pleasure once of hearing first hand from a prison guard all the facts from her murder that were ommitted from all media reports, and in many ways I wish I had never heard it. Men like the Murphy brothers, Travers, and Murdoch make you fear what mankind is capable of, and question why our society can sink to such an appalling low.
So my answer is pretty much summed up in 2 words: Anita Cobby, but I'm curious why you all might share that view?
Here's a link on her if anyone is interested. Avoid page 9 if you dont want any details. And as disgusting as it all is, the fact that more was left out says a lot.
