Legal aid law may change after Bayley win

Notorious rapist and killer Adrian Ernest Bayley has had a legal victory that brings him one step closer to being eligible for parole in his 70s instead of his 80s. But the Victorian government will consider changing legal aid laws after a court granted Bayley a second chance to apply for taxpayer-funded lawyers in his appeal against two rape convictions. He had launched legal action against a Victorian Legal Aid independent reviewer after his initial bid for legal aid was blocked.

Notorious rapist and killer Adrian Ernest Bayley has had a legal victory that brings him one step closer to being eligible for parole in his 70s instead of his 80s.

But the Victorian government will consider changing legal aid laws after a court granted Bayley a second chance to apply for taxpayer-funded lawyers in his appeal against two rape convictions.

He had launched legal action against a Victorian Legal Aid independent reviewer after his initial bid for legal aid was blocked.

Already serving life for the 2012 rape and murder of Melbourne woman Jill Meagher, Bayley wanted to appeal against additional rape convictions handed down earlier this year.

If successful, an appeal would have reduced his current non-parole period of 43 years to something closer to the 35 years imposed when he was jailed for Ms Meagher’s murder.

The state government in September formally intervened to prevent Bayley, 44, accessing funding for an appeal.

On Friday, Victorian Supreme Court judge Kevin Bell ruled in Bayley’s favour and ordered VLA to refer the decision to a different independent reviewer.

Attorney-General Martin Pakula said the government was disappointed in the outcome and would read the decision to see whether any amendment to the Legal Aid Act was necessary.

“We’ll examine the judgment, we’ll examine the reasons given by the court and we’ll assess whether any amendment is necessary,” Mr Pakula told reporters on Friday.

In his judgment, Justice Bell said legal assistance cannot be denied because an applicant is notorious, unpopular and has prior convictions.

“All persons are equal before the law and the Legal Aid Act requires consideration of applications to be objective, criterion based and non-arbitrary,” Justice Bell said.

During the hearing, Saul Holt SC, acting pro-bono for Bayley, told the Victorian Supreme Court that denying Bayley legal aid is a breach of the charter of human rights.

Weaknesses in the prosecution case against Bayley left open the likelihood that someone else committed the offences, Mr Holt said.

Shadow attorney-general John Pesuttos said Victorians had every reason to be deeply disappointed that Bayley can now continue with the appeals process.

This monster raped and brutalized countless sex workers before murdering Jill Meagher.

Some Fennec foxes possess specific genes that allow it to be domesticated. Scientists from the Friendly Animal Association have been engaged in a decade long project to artificially preserve these genes and breed more animals capable of befriending humans. The Fennec fox is just the latest animal to be domesticated by the group.

“my favorite lady”

[thedesignimagegroup]

Dark Horse Comics Lady Killer mini series (compiled into a perfect bound graphic novel edition) is written by Jamie S. Rich and Joelle Jones, and masterfully drawn by Ms. Jones herself. 

The gritty (and bloody!) story deals with a Mad Men era suburban Seattle housewife who’s actually a CIA assassin. 

Artist Joelle Jones explains how she playfully put together a series of vintage ad mockups while doing research for the project, shown above (with additional hand lettering by Crank). The mini-series is a dark delight, just as these playfully grim ads are. This isn’t a comics blog, of course. And Rich and Jones’ mini series won’t be for everyone. But the art is still terrific, and those ads are fun. The illustration style and typography is strictly now, but the coloring and general ‘feel’ are pure retro. And we’ll admit it: We love retro, and get a real kick out of seeing contemporary tweaks and twists of vintage 20th century design, illustration and photographic tropes. Check out more of Jones work at joellejones.com.

1) I’m gonna need to get this comic, I can tell

2) You know how some times you can get like prints of vintage magazine ads for  home decor? I NEED THESE IN THE EXACT SAME FORMAT SO I CAN FRAME THEM ALL OVER MY APARTMENT

Kids are awesome! In moderation. 

I’m so excited to have finally finished this comic. I’ve been working on this idea for a while, and expanded it from a shorter comic. Here is the original, and a longer description of why I don’t want kids and why that’s totally okay. Thanks for reading!  P.S. I will be selling this comic, along with others at the Ice Cream Comics Expo in Iowa City April 9th!

P.P.S. You can also find it in my Etsy shop!

Considering I had to learn and demonstrate strategies to take down an armed attacker before I could even do unpaid work in a school for a semester, this is legitimate.

Hi, Clair. I’d like to come in and talk with you. Would that be all right?

[exvind]

This is the Batman we need to see more often. The one who remembers what it was like to be a scared child, one who knows how to handle situations delicately.

[valwing]

One of the reason why I love batman so much. He is portrayed as a very careful and guarded man. But he is probably the most human out of anyone. It’s why he is the knight that gotham deserves.

Re: that last panel - 

Batman, when he’s written correctly, is an extremely compassionate person. 

[ren-of-rationality]

I always feel the need to reblog this because it’s definitely something I feel was lost in the Nolan films. 

[kakaphoe]

The thing about Bruce is he believes he is not a good man, but he is.

[futureevilscientist]

More than just being instinctively compassionate, the Batman in the photoset, at least, knows (and was probably trained in, i.e. actively sought out the knowledge) how to handle a person who’s been traumatised and their sense of self threatened without further trampling all over their boundaries. he asks for permission to talk to her, he warns her he’s coming closer instead of just imposing his presence on her. That is not something you know instinctively even if you know what it’s like to be scared or went through trauma yourself, it takes awareness because it means not acting as one usually would.

This Batman is compassionate, self-aware and sensitive, so I’m not even surprised the machismo fest that was Nolan’s version did away with all that.

It is always so IMPORTANT to me when I see Batman interact with kids; he knows what it is like to be a kid who is upset, angry, sad, afraid, and hurt.
