A victim’s perspective of the mental impairment defence *re-issue*

A victim’s perspective of the mental impairment defence *re-issue*

David Cammarata’s childhood best friend is currently a forensic patient in a secure psychiatric facility. He was found not guilty of the machete murder of his own brother at a suburban shopping centre and of stalking and attempting to murder David, because the judge believed he was suffering from severe mental illness when he committed the offences.

David and his family were terrorised for years before his former friend Jonathan was apprehended. Now he lives in fear that he’ll one day be released.

David’s former best friend, the best man at his wedding is a man by the name of Jonathan Dick.
