Lynette Nitschke fears she could randomly bump into her daughter's killer and wants parole authorities to do more to prevent that happening.
Lynette Nitschke worries that, one day, when she's in a shop or a cafe or a park, she'll catch sight of the man who murdered her daughter.Her killer Alister Thompson was a student at St Mark's College and was jailed in 1993
Alister Thompson was jailed in 1993, but Ms Nitschke said he was released on parole several years ago."The thought of seeing him again makes me feel ill," Ms Nitschke said. She believes that to prevent such scenarios, victims' families should be granted a right that is currently denied them. "I can understand the difficulties that that kind of random meeting are going to create, but that would be a very rare occurrence," he said.
