1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,280
Speaker 1: Right now, Mark Mitchell, he's got a bit on his

2
00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:04,240
Speaker 1: plate at the moment. He'll be happy with the score

3
00:00:04,240 --> 00:00:07,520
Speaker 1: he got from Audrey Young in her ranking of ministers

4
00:00:07,520 --> 00:00:10,840
Speaker 1: for midterm. But I reckon he is holding on to

5
00:00:10,960 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 1: a ticking time bomb. This is the case of the

6
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:18,280
Speaker 1: beautiful young Colombian woman woman in christ Church living next

7
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:21,920
Speaker 1: door to a monster. She didn't know he'd been let

8
00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,400
Speaker 1: out of prison ten weeks before he raped her and

9
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:28,440
Speaker 1: stabbed her to death. He was on parole, by the way.

10
00:00:29,440 --> 00:00:33,919
Speaker 1: And here's the problem. Corrections knew he was quote a

11
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:39,880
Speaker 1: high high high risk. Any young attractive woman near him

12
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:44,280
Speaker 1: would be a target. Poor Juliana bonnella head Eda. That

13
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:46,879
Speaker 1: was the woman she lived next door. She didn't know

14
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:51,960
Speaker 1: about his past, and Corrections somehow didn't know she'd moved

15
00:00:51,960 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 1: in next door to this animal. Now, since we spoke

16
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,160
Speaker 1: about this the other day, a couple of things have happened,

17
00:00:57,160 --> 00:00:59,240
Speaker 1: a couple of updates for you. And this is where

18
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:02,520
Speaker 1: Mitchell comes in. This guy was on parole right, which

19
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: means he's been let out of prison early. Could still

20
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 1: be in prison, but you're not because we've let you out.

21
00:01:08,800 --> 00:01:12,000
Speaker 1: Now you wonder how many other high risk offenders like

22
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 1: this guy are released from prison early, and is this,

23
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:19,240
Speaker 1: you know, a good idea? Well, a senior correction staff

24
00:01:19,240 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 1: for this week says they're regularly being let out early

25
00:01:24,200 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 1: and let into the community, not just people like this guy,

26
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:33,160
Speaker 1: but people with quote even higher risk here's what I reckon.

27
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:37,000
Speaker 1: This case and a long list of parole botch ups

28
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 1: before it are all the evidence you need that we

29
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,200
Speaker 1: can't trust the system once these guys make it outside

30
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 1: the government should immediately pause the release of high risk,

31
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:54,880
Speaker 1: violent thugs into our communities. Everyone loves to talk about

32
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:58,880
Speaker 1: safety first, Well here's a bloody good place to start.

33
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:04,600
Speaker 1: This ticking time bomb is in Mark Mitchell's lap. For
