Kiss & Kill

Borce Ristevski is eligible for parole next year. At the time of sentencing, he was marketed by his defence team as being a good candidate for rehabilitation. However, he’s yet to show any signs of remorse or reveal how and why he killed his 41 year-old wife Karen.
Like so many killer narcissists, he’s manipulative and intimidating, so is there hope his true nature will be recognised? And if so, will it be enough to keep him behind bars?

Like Thompson, Eriksen savagely stabbed his former partner dozens of times and his actions were also only considered ‘mid-range violence’. Why are such brutal purposeful acts not considered more serious and what can be done to address the surging rate of intimate partner homicides in Australia?

Considered a high-risk offender, why was he given bail for ongoing breaches of an apprehended violence order and what’s the likelihood that someone with his history could be rehabilitated?

Louis Mahony thought he’d gotten away with murder and he would have, if not for a lone cop who saw him for what he was – Gerry Thornton ignored orders from above to follow his gut but paid a hefty price.
