"Robbery actually took off his pants?" An Australian man burglary, unexpectedly, was raped to death by this guest, worried that the jurors discussed for five days, and finally how to sentence?
The case they want to adjudicate is not complicated, and it can even be said that the facts of the case are simple at a glance, but they discussed for 5 days without discussing a definite result, because this case is too scratchy...
A court in Victoria, Australia, recently heard a rare burglary anti-homicide case, one day in 2021, a 36-year-old man broke into a private house with a knife, intending to rob money and drugs, but was subdued by the homeowner and brutally sexually assaulted.
According to the investigation, the hapless bastard Sean is a repeat offender with multiple drug theft and violent criminal records, and the owner Hollander is also a man with a criminal record, who has been arrested for rape, injury and threats, and the two did not know each other before the crime.
One day, Sean wore stockings and broke into Holland's home with a sharp knife, and at this time Holland was holding a party at home, and saw Sean enter the house alone to see, this situation is a robber, so everyone in the room did not dare to move.
Holland, who was at the door, saw this scene and immediately beat Sean's head and limbs with a baseball, and after a while, Sean lay motionless on the ground, but also breathing.
The development of the story here can be described in 4 words, but the next development can only be said to be a peak turn...
Holland asks Sean to leave here and turn himself in, but the hard-mouthed Sean insists, and seeing that Sean does not comply with his demands, Holland takes off Sean's pants and rapes him.
People around did not expect that the Holland they knew was such a pervert, under the public, did not shy away from anyone, and raped a man in front of them Sean may not have thought that he was raped by a perverted man, or under the public, so many people looked at him, so Sean resisted vigorously.
But he was seriously injured in the head and body, did not have much strength, and was not Holland's opponent at all, and after a while Sean did not move at all, and then he simply cleaned up the scene and drove away despite the eyes of others.
Seeing this, the people around did not dare to step forward and dial 120, worried about Holland's retaliation, afraid that he would become the next Sean, so they all left the scene in disdain.
It wasn't until day 2 that police found Sean's body. Hiding under a pile of blankets, his hands tied with rope, his ankles tied with cloth, his head covered with towels and pillowcases, his pants pulled down, his face wrapped in stockings, he was raped to death by Holland...
The police immediately launched a wanted arrest for Holland, who was arrested 5 days later, and the investigation results revealed that Holland committed sexual abuse and rape for up to 2 hours, and the cruelty lasted for up to 2 hours, and the audacity was staggering.
According to the confession, he even ran out to smoke a cigarette halfway through the violence, and continued to commit harm when he returned. During the trial, the judge angrily said that Holland's behavior was insulting and a degrading practice.
But Holland's lawyer said Holland was ill and had problems with his cognitive, intellectual and psychological conditions, so he was very irritable and impulsive.
This case also made the jury members very entangled, on the one hand, the victims of channel robbery, on the other hand, Holland, who was mentally handicapped and tyrannical, and they did not know how to decide
Finally, after several days of discussion, the jury finally found Holland guilty of intentional rape, but manslaughter was not convicted
Foreign netizens have commented: A man raped another man out of masturbation, this is the most gangster words I have heard this week.
It's illegal for you to trespass into a house, and it's illegal for me to rape you, everyone is fair.
If a person breaks into my house, then that person is my property, and I can do whatever I want with my new property
Anyway, both sides in the case paid the price, but I don't know if Sean felt regret and absurdity at the moment of his life,
This case has aroused widespread concern and controversy in the society, some people sympathize with Holland as a victim, some people despise Sean, it is a crime deserved and some people criticize both are criminals, in any case, this case once again reveals the serious security problems and judicial problems in Australian society.
The cruel truth is that most rapists are repeat offenders, and they rape again and again until they are caught. But because of social prejudices, few victims report crimes, and rapists usually don't face legal trouble.
In Australia in the last century, rape/sex crimes were not very serious, with a maximum sentence of 10 years for rape and up to 14 years for burglary and theft compared to the time.
Over the years, crimes against women and children have received increasing legal attention, and the maximum sentence for rape in Australia has now risen to 25 years. New South Wales has also proposed chemical castration for offenders who molest children, demonstrating Australia's commitment to punishing sexual offences.
I hope that in the future society, when children and women walk on the street, they should feel absolutely safe, not in danger, will not be broken into by thugs while sleeping at home, will not be attacked by gangsters because they walk alone at night, will not be targeted by rape because they wear a beautiful skirt... Is this really hard to achieve?
