Phan adopted a "pose reminiscent of a fencer" and confronted Mr Ballis, who "defended himself by executing roundhouse kicks"."Your violent behaviour has resulted in the death of another man. For that you must be punished," Justice Taylor said.He could be eligible for parole in late 2023, having served nearly one year in custody awaiting sentence.
"The day Jesse took my uncle, he took my auntie and a part of my mum, and they have not been the same ever since," she said.Phan was originally charged with murder but later pleaded guilty to the downgraded charge of manslaughter.Justice Taylor accepted manslaughter was appropriate for the crime, which happened after Phan stopped taking his anti-psychotic medication.
