Note | Mr Stinky will still do life
MELBOURNE: Double murderer and rapist Raymond "Mr Stinky" Edmunds, has became the second "lifer" in Victoria to be refused a minimum sentence.
So ruling in the Supreme Court. Mr Justice Philip Cummins said yesterday that he was aware he was taking an exceptional course.
There had been only one other refusal — Stanley Taylor, one of the Russell Street police station bombers.
Edmunds, 50, has been serving two concurrent life sentences since October 1986 for murdering Gary Heywood, 18, and Abina Madill, 16, of Shepparton, after raping Abina, in 1966.
