10 years in prison
British ski instructor Matthew Williams has been sentenced to 10 years imprisonment for a violent rape he committed in Jindabyne last winter.
Williams, 29, followed a young man and woman as they were walking home from a local pub. First attacking the man, Williams rendered him unconscious before attacking and sexually assaulting the young woman. Initially, due to the severity of the victim’s injuries, police believed they were looking for at least two attackers.
Deserves a lot more.
He deserves Life ....
A low life. Plenty of time to think it over.
Shocking. Perisher might want to look into the instructors they hire in future
10 years and the people involved got life
Gotta love snow season!😡
Not enough time - and neither is the paltry 31/2 years Pell will serve for ruining people’s lives - so unjust
What a joke , will probably be paroled in less than five. Justice system in this country is a joke .
No where near long enough just hang the prick and be done with it !
Not long enough this is never to be taken lightly he is a monster
10yrs wtf
10 years !!!! what a joke !!!.
Should be deported!
They will have a life time so should he🤬😡😡
10 years!! Is that all! Wow after what he did to 2 innocent people is no where near enough!
Nowhere near long enough 😡
Scrum should never be released.
Horrifying 😡
only 10 years 😡 and he’ll be out in 5 and do it again.
Dean Amjah
Dana Sinclair
Should bring back Capital Punishment
Paedophiles, rapists, child murders should get nothing less than life...like die in jail. Our justice system is so broken!
Only 10 years! Disgusting grub should get a lot more for such a violent crime.
Hope the raping continues, on him in prison. Without any lube. See how he likes it. F$#%ing maggot.

Thieves target artefacts at old Kiandra courthouse
Police are investigating a robbery at Australia’s highest historic display in the Old Kiandra Courthouse/Chalet.
National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) staff discovered in late July that the old Courthouse/Chalet had been broken into and historic artefacts from the birthplace of Australian skiing and the nation’s “coldest” gold rush in 1859 stolen.
According to NPWS Park Operations Area Manager, Matt White, the Courthouse/Chalet is on the State Heritage Register and housed a heritage display with numerous open days and group tours held during the year.
“The display included items illustrating skiing, gold mining, law enforcement, and life at Kiandra using information and relics,” Mr White said.

The remains of just one building Is all that's left today It was Harvey Palfrey's chalet pub And it helped us on our way Build as the local court house So morbid and so drear Then someone changed it to a pub And filled it with good cheer A refuge for the stranded, The lonely and the lost They found comfort in Kiandra In spite of snow and frost... Frozen hands from fitting chains Could thaw out by the fire While food an drink would fit you for The trip to places higher
My Great great Grandmother Maria Ryan lived in Bombala and used to be a Hawker with a dray and two horses would pick up Supplies from Kameruka and take them to Kiandra
This must have been restored recently, as when I worked at Cabramurra from 1980 to 1983 and then based in Cooma till 96 do not remember such a new looking building??
😡
They probably took to get money for them or thought them out somewhere. Some people have not respect for others peoples things.
That is amazing, is nothing safe?
What a shame. So sad. Historical collections are so important.
Disgusting, but burglary not robbery.
No cctv?
Disgusting behaviour but I wonder what security measures were in place.

Dalgety streetscaping on schedule for September finish
The town of Dalgety is getting a make- over which is expected to be completed in September.
The town streetscape upgrade started in July with the removal of some big old pine trees near the Dalgety Memorial Hall.
A feature Corten signage panel and a gabion rock basket wall at the entrance of the Snowy River Park has been completed, a sandstone wall and garden bed have been partially built and new trees have been planted.
Dwarf Lomandra and Poa tussock at the entrance, tree guards and a park bench.

Roger, believe it or not, There is sandstone in the area. Underneath Varney’s Range and possibly Guises Range, just up the road from Dalgety
Roger, also there is another dominant non granite rock form in the area. “Basalt”. Not just, granite
I'm sure it will look lovely but sandstone when the whole area is granite rock 🤔
They look great at Dalgety and Bredbo but Adaminaby gets no sandstone and just a heap of plants. They can’t keep up with the gardens as it is so let’s plant more. Another great brain wave Snowy Monaro Regional Council
I thought you would be buried under snow!!! Will look good when finished with She's garden. Cheers
Not sure where they get the name Snowy River Park?
