 Topic: Antonie Dixon (the machete guy) dead
Posted: 05 February 2009 at 9:34am |
It's extraordinarily un-human of me, but in a way I'm glad. No more waste of taxpayer money on appeals and defences, and the victims and their families can rest easy knowing that there is no chance of it happening to anyone else.
Antonie Dixon dies

Couldn't have happened to a better person. Pity didn't happen sooner.

Aww don't RIP crazy eyes.
ETA: though it sounds like he had a shocking childhood - no excuse but I do feel sorry for the child Antonie.

Ditto! That's exactly how I view it. He was a waste of space. He did have a horrible childhood by the sounds, so that is sad. But what's sadder is what he went on to do.

The thing that gets me, is he claims he was "insane" at the time of the samurai attack...however he wasn't insane when he attacked a fellow prisoner a few years ago, nor was he insane when he attacked his lawyer 2 weeks ago - so it's all a crock.
I'm just glad that the victims can be spared any more pain.

When I heard it was a high profile prisoner, quite a few names that society would not miss came to mind.

yep, no tears for him here. Glad that we don't have to pay for him to be in jail for 20+ years.

He was on the drug P when he took to those women with a sword, so that doesn't mean he can use the excuse he was "insane". His lawyer is now saying the system has "let him down" by not putting him in a psych ward, instead of in prison, and that his mental health was deteriorating and he's been beaten up in prison recently. Ohhhh please!!!!!! He's a murderer and there's no excuse for what he did!

I don't belive he was insane...just a dickhead P freak that is not willing to take responsibility for his actions.

Now see, why could he not have gone and died BEFORE he attacked the women and killed an innocent man ?
I remember when that happened because he shot the man at a service station we always go to ...one we had been to in fact about half an hour before it happened . Scary

Okay so maybe he is going to be not taking up any tax-payer money - but what about all the money that is going to go into a enquiry!
I had the pleasure of actually meeting his ex-girlfriend and she is very lovely, not the kind of person you would expect to be associated with somebody like him.

So true.....
The first picture in that link to the story is really chilling - this was really one scary, disturbed man.
