Perth man who set his 3-year-old daughter on fire and doused her 7-year-old autistic sister with petrol gets 17 years

 

A PERTH father who set his three-year-old daughter alight and doused her seven- year-old autistic sister with petrol while in a drug-induced psychosis has been sentenced to 17 years behind bars.

 

Edward John Herbert admitted intending to murder the girls at the family’s Doubleview home in August 2015, but pleaded not guilty to five charges, claiming insanity, a defence that WA Supreme Court Justice Lindy Jenkins rejected in April after his judge-alone trial.

 

Herbert had been drinking almost a carton of beer and smoking $50 worth of cannabis a day in the weeks leading up to the attack, in which he inflicted life-threatening burns to 13 per cent of his youngest daughter’s body and left her permanently scarred.

 

Earlier that night, the 45-year-old shouted that aliens were coming to get him and said: “The werewolf is coming at 12 o’clock.” He ran around naked and grabbed a knife, telling his now ex-partner he was going to kill her as she fled the house in fear.

 

Off-duty policewoman Stephanie Bochorsky heard a commotion from her nearby home and ran into the house.

 

She then saw Herbert pouring petrol over the autistic girl as she lay in her bed and dragged the child out of the house while holding her burnt sister. The trial heard a different neighbour rushed in with a fire extinguisher and found Herbert naked, pacing and drinking beer in the kitchen. He told the neighbour he burnt his daughter because she was “too f***ing beautiful”, then lunged at the man with a knife but was hit on the head with the fire extinguisher.

 

When another neighbour rescued Herbert’s six-year-old son, the offender told her: “Don’t worry, I wouldn’t have lit me boy up.” Prosecutor Amanda Forrester said the boy had to be physically removed from his bed as he was frozen with fear from what he had heard.

GST (goods and services tax) is 10% here across the spectrum of items (with some items exempt) but then some state taxes still apply even though we the Australian People were told GST would mean the abolition of other taxes (whoever actually believed that believes in Unicorns etc)

Feminist collective douche cafe where lesbians get priority seating.

 

Pussy whipped males who think they are getting in touch with their feminine side pay a "tax" to populate this arty cafe; the money allegedly being donated to womens shelter or some other tree hugging hippy shit.

Intended to ask this the other day. Have an aussie friend on another forum, Been talking about the the state has taken over all the ISP's making one big government run "National Broad Band" In doing so it knocked out phone service to small area communities. The woman is really pissed because she is use to using hard line phone to call for everything.
