William O’Sullivan beat his 22-month-old stepson, Mason Lee, to the point where Lee died from his injuries some five days later.
Details of 37-year-old O’Sullivan’s sentencing were released in the Queensland Supreme Court yesterday. He pleaded guilty to four charges, including manslaughter and cruelty to a child under 16-years of age.
O’Sullivan has been sentenced to nine years jail, six years of which are not subject to parole. With time served he may be out in four years.
The story of short, tormented life of Mason Lee is heartbreaking. He died of horrific injuries and in terrible pain.
In 2009, Heidi Strbak inflicted a series of fatal blows on her four-year-old son, Tyrell Cobb, in their Gold Coast home. Last year Strback was found guilty of manslaughter. She was sentenced to nine years in jail. She will be eligible for parole in 2021.

Imagine a bumptious little shit getting worldwide oxygen for an act worthy of no comment outside the immediate vicinity. And take note of the kid’s name, then tell me the parents don’t have an agenda.
Enjoy

“I am/We are passionate about …” is a sure-fire formula for success. Can be dropped in anywhere, anytime without a moment’s thought. Works better when coupled with “absolutely”. Deserves a sea of raised arms. Conjures yellow prose exalting the ‘visionary’ call.
Well …., its obvious female quotas are a no-no with the conservatives. But don’t quote me.
Wholesale prices today QLD Spot price $49per mw Forecast spot price for peak time $142.
SA Spot price $8 per mw. Forecast spot price for peak time – yes minus – $1000.00.
QLD Generation 85 % Fossil fuel. SA Generation 85% Renewables today. In the bizarro world of the conservative 49 is less than 8. No surprises.
And the government keeps saying, they’re working for us!
It’s a crime.
Australian Energy regulator confirms wholesale energy market gamed. ACCC Rod Sims states that is the market working. Sims has to go.
the AEMC fights against 5 minute pricing and the industry led Australian Energy Council stops the AER from being able to interview bidders in the market. This is more evidence the NEG was a way for the incumbent fossil generators to maintain higher than required prices.
The Federal government oversees and has actively enabled this price gouging. No Surprises.

Sims goes and??? Meet the new boss same as the last boss. ACCC can be wound up . WOFTAM
I guess Putin just shirt-fronted the world with that ridiculous interview with the two Russian tourists with a penchant for church spires in Salisbury.
Is funny church. Is no onions on. Is no pictures.
All hail The Chief, Trump The Magnificent! He knows everything.

“Yet the small child is learning – in the most public way – that affirming your principles, stating your case, citing the facts and making a symbolic gesture of resistance incites rage and condemnation from those whose sense of status and authority depends on uninterrupted rituals of mindless obedience.”
