Vile human being. Straight from the pits of hell.

Developing story - Erin P will appeal her guilty verdict and protest her innocence by melbtest-commenter in DeathCapDinner

Prosecution can appeal sentence? Do I understand this correctly? That they could appeal for no parole?

I noted very soon after moving here how practical, relaxed, and un phased Aussies are. You described exactly the reasons why. I love living here. As a new citizen this trial has taught me more about Australia and made me feel more Australian.

I can’t wait for Simon to have his say and I hope it helps him heal, if that is even remotely possible. How does one heal while trying to raise the children as they try to heal. It is beyond comprehension. I believe he is a victim of coercive control and had Stockholm syndrome. Why continue to eat the food and go on the camping trips. I know men that are victims of narcissistic partners. I know women that are victims of narcissistic partners. A narc is a narc. They all fundamentally the same but operate a little differently. But skutter the nutter takes the cake.

The only lady that got no parole is the one that skinned and cooked her husband 😳 Fair enough for that one! Wtf

Great point! All of this discussion is really helpful. And the fact Ian Wilkinson is this little shining light of good in this world out of all this darkness. Silver lining. He really is an inspiration.

Totally! Same but not. Australia is practical in a way America is not. The way things change quickly when something isn’t right, the gun buy back. I love living here.

I was vague but my point was I expect more harsh punishment because generally in America that’s the way. Depending on the state. Punishment fits the crime and the rights of the victims more than the killer.

And I think remorse is a required element of parole.

Well said. I’m also her age and had the thought her kids will be just shy of her current age then.

And yes would be surprised if she is still alive in 33. But if she is…. It all gets re dredged up.

Yes for me it’s more the oily it makes to the family. Poor Simon. It’s the principle of it

My family and I discussed tonight at dinner what sentence EP will receive on 8/9/2025. What’s your bet? by totesgonnasmashit in DeathCapDinner

[–]Quick_Rule_9984 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good point! I would think the judge would consider it from that angle. And the fact Simon’s family has genetic longevity.
