The pedophile who took the life of a 9-year-old schoolgirl Samantha Knight more than 30 years ago will walk free within days after a judge rejected the application to keep him in jail.
Justice Richard Button imposed a 5-year extended supervision order with strict conditions on Michael Guider, now 68.
It was in 2002 when Guider pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of 9-year-old Samantha who disappeared after leaving her home on August 19, 1986. Her mother, Tess Knight, and many other victims and also Guider’s Tim had pleaded for him not to be released.
The mother who was shaking inside after the decision has been made said: “We should all be shocked. He hasn’t demonstrated that he’s changed.
“So not only hasn’t he told us what he did with Samantha’s body – and there will be no body to find anymore, it’s a long time – but he hasn’t given me and my family and Samantha’s friends any details of what happened that day.”
Tim Guider, the pedo’s brother, hoped his sibling could be coerced into revealing where the 9-year-old’s body was buried.
“This is no normal person. He’s a monster and he’s a danger and the community don’t want him out,” Mr. Guider said.
Justice Button said the New South Wales Supreme Court hearing will assess the risk the 68-year-old posed in the future instead of imposing punishment for his previous offense.
Three experts, highly experienced in psychiatry and psychology, had all agreed Guider’s risk could be managed under a stringent and lengthy system of supervision, according to the judge.
He also took note of Guider’s good behavior.
He will have to live under more than 50 conditions including providing a weekly schedule of his movements, wearing electronic monitoring equipment and never changing his name.
In addition, he must not go near schools, pre-schools, day care centers, cinemas, libraries, playgrounds, pools and amusement parks.
