Klein, who the court heard was "strongly influenced" by Milat, will spend 22 years behind bars. Milat and Klein murdered David using a double bladed axe in the Belanglo State Forest in November - the same bushland Ivan Milat slaughtered seven backpackers in the s. The pair, who were aged 17 and 18 at the time, pleaded guilty to murder last year. Justice Mathews didn't give any discount for Milat's guilty plea, and noted he still is a "serious potential danger" to the community.
Dressed in suits, and separated by a prison officer, neither showed any emotion as the sentence was handed down. The court heard Milat "gloated" about the killing the next day, and said "you know me, you know my family.
You know the last name Milat, I did what they do". Justice Mathews said Milat didn't appear to have "expressions of genuine remorse The court heard the location of the murder was "significant' as it is where his great uncle "lured a number of people and murdered them". The murder, and the 15 minutes leading up to it, was hauntingly captured on an audio recording from Klein's mobile phone.
Justice Mathews said that to describe the recording as "chilling A sentencing hearing last month revealed Milat has written several poems during his time in custody, including one titled 'Killer looks and on evil side" where he writes "shelter you will need to seek, so terrifed you can hardly speak".
Another poem includes the verse "I am not fazed by blood or screams, nothing I do will haunt my dreams". Justice Mathews said the "very chilling" poetry appears to "recount the murder". The court was packed with David's family, as well as members of the Milat family who came to hear the sentence. The DPP Lloyd Babb told the court during submissions last month that it was a murder based on "torment and torture" with a motive based only on "a thrill to kill".
He said the pair's guilty plea was based not on remorse but on a "recognition of the inevitable" because police had seized the audio recording.
Taking into account time spent in custody, Milat and Klein will be eligible for parole in and respectively. In sentencing, Acting Justice Jane Mathews read out this "particularly chilling" poem Matthew Milat wrote more than nine months after the murder. In the s, the bodies of seven young backpackers were discovered in Belanglo State Forest, a 9,acre wood in New South Wales, Australia. The bodies, each riddled with stab wounds, had been posed face-down with loose hut-like structures of sticks constructed over them.
The killings, which became known as the Backpacker Murders, were discovered to be the work of Ivan Milat, an Australian man with a prior history of abduction and rape.
He was sentenced to seven consecutive life sentences, plus 18 years. Look at the ground and answer my questions. Milat: Look at the dirt. Look at the dirt. Tell me. Is it true you have been going around telling people my affairs?
Put your hands down next to your face. Pull them up to your face … You going to keep meddling with me? You got me? Auchterlonie: I am serious man. I swear to God to you dude. I never said nothing about you. The horrific sound recording of year-old David Auchterlonie reeling from a brutal axe strike came without warning - a terrible guttural moan that brought shrieks of distress from the victim's family and shocked many sitting in the court. You wanna fucking get in my business?

Top podcast episodes. Top podcast episodes featuring matthew milat. LS In the case of Matthew Milat this couldn't be more true. Evilness's podcast. Milat was sentenced to 43 years in prison for his crime. Matthew Milat is the great nephew of serial killer Ivan Milat. Who the fuck is Matt? Serial Napper. June 3, A simultaneous raid was carried out in the early hours of May 22, , which revealed a huge amount of evidence linking Milat to the crimes, including personal effects of many of the victims, including clothing, sleeping bags and other camping equipment, as well as vast quantities of ammunition.
They also found parts of disassembled weapons, including a. A long, curved cavalry sword, suitable for the beheading of Habschied, was found in a locked cupboard at the home of Milat's mother. Milat was arrested and taken into custody for questioning, where he was evasive and uncooperative. He was initially charged with the attack on Onions, then subsequently with the seven murders once ballistic evidence matched his weapon to the attacks.
He was remained in custody to await trial. He engaged the same lawyer who had represented him during his rape trial and acquittal, John Marsden, but fired him when he advised Milat to plead guilty. Milat's trial was set for June , but the case was delayed by wrangles over legal aid, and finally went ahead in the full glare of international publicity in March Milat was charged with the seven murders, as well as the attack on Onions, and pleaded not guilty to all charges.
Onions was the first prosecution witness, who was followed by testimony from the family members of the victims. Then followed details of the hundreds of exhibits and crime scene photos, as well as expert witness testimony. The prosecution case took 12 weeks to present. The defense called Milat to the stand; he denied any involvement in the killings, but performed poorly under cross-examination, making a bad impression on the jury.
The defense tried to imply that other members of the Milat family had committed the crimes, and had then set Ivan up, but the case presented was not credible. On July 27, , following a week trial, the jury returned after three days of consideration, finding Milat guilty on all charges. He was sentenced to six years imprisonment for the attack on Onions and seven consecutive life sentences for each of the murders.
When asked if he had any comment, Milat continued to protest his innocence. Milat was first incarcerated in Maitland Prison, where he would stay for nearly a year.
In May , authorities foiled a well-planned jailbreak attempt masterminded by Milat. After discovering the plot, the inmates were separated. His accomplice George Savvas was found hanged in his cell the next morning. He was then transferred to the maximum-security wing of Goulburn Prison, near Sydney.
After a blade was discovered in his cell, Milat spent time in solitary confinement. Milat has always maintained his innocence, and later staged self-mutilation attacks and hunger strikes in a bid to get his appeals heard. Police maintain that Milat may have been involved in many more murders than the seven for which he was convicted.
In the summer of , Milat was ordered to give evidence at an inquest into the disappearances of three other female backpackers, but no case has been brought against him due to lack of evidence.
