Real People - facing the forgotten issues with friendship and a little fun.
A Post for little John Ashfield who died on August 4th 1993. My son was born on the 10th anniversary of his death.
I am not usually an advocate for the death penalty but I really do think that there are some crimes that a death penalty is needed to protect the vulnerable and weaker members of society. Actually I do not like the death penalty at all but in some cases, you do think, society needs to be protected from people such as these.
Here is the first article and it is not for the weak stomached. When you read of the wickedness of these people, you wonder how someone could treat a child in such a manner, any child, not just a child you borne. What happened to her protective maternal instinct? It is beyond belief what this woman did. I love children and while I do believe the occasional smack at times is warranted (delivered as a firm pat on the bottom and once only without anger) and firm boundaries, the actions of these two people is beyond all my comprehension. They systematically abused this child until he died and involved the other children in their abuse. One wonders if they were drunk, on drugs or just simply evil, twisted and exceptionally malicious people.

When you read what they did to this little boy and the ‘reason’ for which they believed he needed punishment, one cannot help but wonder at the deranged madness of this pair of monsters. How have they damaged the other children who had to witness the beating of their little brother? G-D only knows. A six year old boy supposed to have touched his three year old sister inappropriately? They must be mad and have they had psychiatric evaluations done on this pair? They were projecting their own filth and anger onto a gorgeous normal little lad and when you see the pictures of this child, you cannot stop the tears. Vile, vile beings and why are we letting people like this back out into the community? How do we stop this witch from having contact with children under 16? She will probably be in a relationship with someone within weeks of getting out. That man could very well have grown children and they may have children who will be his grandchildren. There is an insanity happening in the court system that beggars belief. They are relying on people who have committed the ultimate crimes to keep to rules of normal social behaviour.
We get to Austin Allen Hughes and there is a woman out there who I hope is thanking G-D for her alert and protective sister and mother. Thank goodness, that these people were alert and aware to what this man was about.

When you read how he integrated himself into the family, it gives you the cold shivers.

And the daughter Melissa, John’s little sister, one of the hidden victims whose life has been shattered by this pair’s barbaric act of insanity.

In conclusion, it shows us just how vulnerable we are as single parents. There is nothing to be said but that it is best for society when we raise our children to be balanced and good human beings and to marry once and be in a strong and stable relationship with the one person. I look with some envy at friends who are married and in strong relationships of twenty or thirty years standing. It shows that marriage is meant to be between men and women to endure and to refine and develop the character of people and to be an example for the next generation.
I swore to myself when I first held my sleeping baby son that I would never ever enter into a ‘relationship or partnership’ with anyone because I was ‘lonely’ or because ‘he needed a father’ and that I would put his safety and needs for security first at all times. It does not matter to me that I may never get married again. I have a duty to my child and we all need to recognise that we have a duty to our children to put their needs first and ours second. We are adults and they are the vulnerable and the weak that need our protection. The rest is up to G-D and all we can do is our best and pray.
The little people like John Ashfield who left this life too soon and in the most horrific manner, are becoming far too numerous and we must do something to protect them. May his killers rot in prison for the rest of their lives or be struck by some natural disaster. G-D a bolt of lightning for both of them, but then considering the way that tiny little child suffered, it is too swift a death for them.

Comment by Robert William Nickisson on February 10, 2012 at 3:33pm Hi Ilana, seems I have done my penance and DT did print it mostly still they had only 4 replies and 3 were for letting the killer enjoy the rest of his life as he has paid for his crime according to these Australians who I noted never give their proper names. So much for their opinions at least in Just Grounds people stand behind their comments and criticisms. Robert WN

Daily Telegraph. Story today 10/2/12 ...From bars to hotels for wife killer Andrew Kalajzich.
To which I replied as follows, but not expecting it will be printed as I am out of favour with that particular fish and chip wrapper. But since they had no replies I thought I would have a go so will see.
From bars to hotels for wife killer Andrew Kalajzich
Demonstrates the need for a reintroduction of a Death Penalty into Australian Law otherwise as illustrated here There is no Law against premeditated murder in Australia. The only right for the victim in Australian Law is for the Courts to find the perpetrators Guilty. And then the mandated Law should be LIFE never to be released or the Death Penalty. I notice his wife the victim is not resurrected by law as he is forgiven by law and in the car with him on the sightseeing jaunt. Another victory for the stupidity called Australian Justice.

Comment by Robert William Nickisson on February 6, 2012 at 10:13am Hi Ilana, Yes, horrific indeed, but the result of a Weak Political System, sorry Ilana but God doesn't enter the equation this is all man-made. No decent society can function successfully WITHOUT a DEATH PENALTY. Western Societies worry much more about the rights of the murderers and rapist and mass killers than any justice for the innocent victim. The Law thinks a verdict of Guilty answers the rights of the victim, whereas if a Death for a Death were their rights by LAW there would be far fewer Murderers. However as it appears Australian Society is too squeamish to send this garbage to the Gallows then the very least acceptable is life without ever being eligible for parole (die in prison). In fact the whole Australian system of LAW and Order is a JOKE demonstrated to perfection by the Federal and Canberra State Keystone cops in Canberra on Australia Day and the involvement of the PM's Staff in organising the whole anti-Abbott demonstration and all without Juliar's approval. If we are stupid enough to believe that no wonder we have a hands off policy for the scum that is the subject of this discussion. And what of the victim, the little boy, well the Law is so sorry but we have carried out our task and have found his killer guilty, but the victim he is just another statistic. Yes, folk, that is Australian Justice. Robert WN

Yes what they did is horrific, but what I find even more horrendous is the fact that they are letting these people out after less then 20 years and if you read the story of the family he recently intergrated himself into, he had already started making comments about this woman's little boy as spoilt and needing disciplining. Now, if he has been in jail for child bashing and killing twenty years before when he 'disciplined' a child, I actually do not think there is much hope of real rehabilitation in his case. I think it would only have been a matter of time, when he would have 'disciplined' the boy of his last girlfriend and there would have been drastic consequences for the boy. Thank goodness tragedy was averted. Boy, I bet she is thanking her family and is extra careful. Some angels were obviously looking after her apart from her mother and sister.
This guy and the woman the mother of John, they are unreformed and psychotic personalities by the sound of things. People like that do not reform. When will some of the courts wake up to people like those who can do this to anyone, LET alone a child, a helpless little boy. G-D only knows what that kid must have suffered in his last hours when the bitch who was meant to be his mother who was supposed to have protected him, was his prime abuser and killer.
