The killer of aspiring Melbourne comedian Eurydice Dixon loses an appeal to reduce his life sentence.

Before sentencing last year, Justice Stephen Kaye had been urged to forego setting a non-parole period."You intentionally killed Eurydice Dixon by choking her to death in order to gratify your perverted and depraved sexual desires," he told Todd at the time.

"Eurydice was then doing what she — and any other person in our society — is entitled to do, namely walking peacefully in a public area of our city. She was vulnerable and in the circumstances, defenceless," Justice Kaye said."Eurydice herself should be remembered, as her friends will remember her, for her wit and her courage and for her kindness, not for her death," Mr Dixon said.

Ms Dixon's death had prompted an outpouring of grief and anger, with a large vigil held in Melbourne days later.

Good news

There is some sanity and commonsense in the judicial system then.

35years. Not long enough..

Jaymes Todd 'I have Asperger's, I have a sexual sadism disorder, I planned and stalked Eurydice for 4 hours before raping and killing her, but because I said sorry I should be held to a lesser standard'. No Jaymes, 35 to life. You'll have plenty of time to feel sorry for yourself

Good. Let him stay right where he is.

Two Words: Death Penalty!

Fuk him. A life for a life.

Put him in a cell with Harvey and lashings of Corona.

Put him in a cell with Harvey, they have a lot in common.

Good news!!! 😭 It all comes down to this, 'A woman should be able to walk home after a night out without any fear of being harmed”.

Law that could have saved Hannah Clarke and children’s lives rejected by politiciansFederal politicians have rejected a proposed law that could have saved Hannah Clarke and her children’s lives by allowing them to legally hide from their killer, advocates say. They stood no chance against this monster Laws wouldn’t have saved them Do you really think how unstable he was he would have abided to them Too many emotionally charged people about this tragedy to comment on these laws. It was a travesty and this nut job would have found a way. I like to believe he will burn for eternity for what he did. “Women fight every day for their safety and that of their children because shared parenting is the priority under the Family Law Act.” She says that like it’s a bad thing

Harvey Weinstein jailed for 23 yearsFormer Hollywood film producer Harvey Weinstein has been sentenced to more than 20 years in prison for sexual assault and rape. 23 years, you don’t get that for murder here in Australia. Our justice system is useless and needs to be overhauled. Let’s wait and see how many of the 23 years this excuse for a human actually spends behind bars - some victims live a full life, some never recover from the trauma, some forfeit their life because of abuse - I hope he lives all of the 23 years in darkness Great news!
