Eurydice Dixon's killer Jaymes Todd launches appeal against life sentenceLawyers for the man who raped and murdered comedian Eurydice Dixon in a Melbourne park lodge an appeal against his life sentence.

Eurydice Dixon's friends launch not-for-profit to honour 'spirit' of her comedyA not-for-profit is launched by friends of Melbourne comedian Eurydice Dixon to honour her tradition of delivering challenging social commentary and move the spotlight away from her death. That's wonderful from them, but sad for her family, again, I imagine. Such a tradgity, her comedy wasn't that great T👏B👏H👏 Would have been better spent on funding research to prevent, cure and or manage autism better, if you look at the big picture and think about it more deeply. Then it may save some future Eurydice from a similar fate.
