Pedophile may go free
A VIOLENT Sunshine Coast pedophile could be released from jail as early as this month unless an eleventh-hour fight to keep him locked up is successful. Douglas Brian Jackway was to be released on Friday after serving his sentence for the rape of a young girl. Attorney General Paul Lucas applied to the Supreme Court of Queensland yesterday for Jackway to be locked up indefinitely. If the government is successful, Jackway would be listed under the Dangerous Prisoners (Sexual Offenders) Act for numerous crimes against children. Jackway was jailed in the 1990s for snatching a young boy from a public area and raping him in broad daylight. He was released in November, 2003, before being arrested again in early 2004 and convicted for the rape of a young girl several years earlier. While a civil liberties body blasted the laws, a spokesman for Mr Lucas said the government believed Jackway belonged behind bars. Acting Justice Kerry O'Brien ordered an interim detention order yesterday until February 28, when he will decide Jackway's fate. Queensland Council for Civil Liberties president Michael Cope said the laws were "fundamentally flawed". "How can somebody defend against an application that they might (commit a crime) in the future?" Mr Cope said. "Once people have served their time then the punishment has come to an end and they're entitled to be released." Mr Cope said there was no way of knowing an inmate was going to commit a crime when they were released. "So what you're doing (if someone is locked up indefinitely) is depriving someone of their liberty based on the idea of what they might do," Mr Cope said. Child safety advocates Bruce and Denise Morcombe studied the police files of dozens of pedophiles during the lengthy investigation into their son's disappearance. Mr Morcombe, who has read Jackway's history, said the pedophile should not be released. "Certainly the experience we have ... is that sex offenders can never be rehabilitated," Mr Morcombe said. "They're different to just a violent offender. To read (Jackway's) history it's suggested he's potentially a very dangerous man, particularly to children."

Jackway Eligible for Parole Now
VIOLENT child sex offender Douglas Jackway is eligible to apply for parole. Jackway, 33, was jailed for five years in 2005 for the rape of an 11-year-old girl, a crime he committed at the age of 14, and also for traffic offences stemming from a high speed car chase through Noosa on December 5, 2003. In May, Jackway, who grew up in Tewantin, was named as a person of interest in relation to the disappearance in 2003 of teenager Daniel Morcombe. Since his 2005 conviction, Jackway has been charged with additional offences, two committed in prison, adding an extra two years to his sentence, meaning his time in prison is set to expire in February, 2012. Six months before that date, if he has not already been granted parole, the state government can apply to have him kept in jail indefinitely. Jackway, described by one psychologist as a “biological psychopath”, became eligible to apply for parole in June, 2008. It is unknown whether he has actually applied. Daniel Morcombe’s father, Bruce, said Jackway should not be granted parole regardless of whether he was involved in his son’s disappearance or not. “Everybody deserves a second chance but Jackway has shown a propensity for serious re-offending straight after he is released from prison,” Mr Morcombe said. “His criminal record is abysmal, but the time until his release is ticking down. “Jackway is not the sort of person who should be able to live in community. He has shown he can’t be rehabilitated.” Under the Dangerous Prisoners (Sexual Offenders) Act, the attorney-general can apply for a prisoner’s continued imprisonment during the last six months of the prisoner’s sentence. Queensland attorney-general Cameron Dick said the act ensured prisoners were given a full opportunity to participate in relevant rehabilitation programs. “I am advised that Mr Jackway’s current sentence is calculated to expire in February, 2012,” Mr Dick said. “I will give full and thorough consideration to making an application under the act at the relevant time.” www.sunshinecoastdaily.com.au (22-12-2009) Anne-Louise Brown |

Tip Ties Inmates to Missing Boy
POLICE are investigating allegations a convicted rapist and a murderer were seen with Daniel Morcombe the day he went missing. In the latest avalanche of information on the mystery disappearance, a police informant has told detectives where Daniel's body may be buried. Douglas Jackway and Ray Davey, both serving time in jail, are believed to be persons of interest in Queensland's most resource-intensive investigation. The Courier-Mail has learned police are investigating allegations by Davey's then girlfriend, Anita O'Brien, that Jackway and Davey were seen with Daniel, 13. Davey was jailed for the murder of Donald Rogers, who died about 10 days after Daniel's disappearance in 2003. Jackway, 32, is in Capricornia Correctional Centre for the rape of a nine-year-old boy. He has committed a string of offences dating back to 1994, including indecent dealing, deprivation of liberty, carnal knowledge, indecent exposure and indecent treatment. Daniel's parents said they were aware Davey and Jackway could be current persons of interest. "It's an ongoing line of inquiry we understand the police have," Daniel's father, Bruce, said yesterday. Police are refusing to comment on the status of the investigation but the Morcombes say they are encouraged by the information given to Crime Stoppers after Channel 7 named Jackway as a person of interest. "We understand police took more than 300 calls to Crime Stoppers last night, which is a phenomenal effort," Mr Morcombe said. "They're really pleased and we thank the community for continually searching for answers. The police haven't identified to us the quality of those leads. "Obviously, there'll be some that are a little thin on content. But the bottom line is the police are working through each of them and prioritising them and working as quickly as they can on the most important ones." Attorney-General Cameron Dick yesterday said the Government would consider applying to keep Jackway in prison on a continuing detention order amid concerns he could re-offend. But any application would not be made until the last six months of his imprisonment, which was not until 2012. The Courier-Mail (2-6-2009) Renee Viellaris/ Michael Madigan |

Child Rapist Linked to Missing Boy
CONVICTED child rapist Douglas Brian Jackway was last night named as a person of interest in the long-running case of missing Queensland boy Daniel Morcombe. Jackway, who is in jail for raping a nine-year-old girl, was allegedly living near to where the boy, 13, disappeared while waiting at a bus stop on the Sunshine Coast on December 7, 2003. The Seven Network's Sunday Night program last night said Jackway was also believed to be driving a car - a blue or silver 1990s sedan - which was seen in the vicinity of where Morcombe was abducted. The program drew links between Daniel's disappearance and Jackway's attempted abduction of another boy on the central Queensland coast in the 1990s. Daniel's father, Bruce, said: "It makes your skin crawl how similar this case is to a possible scenario involving Daniel." He said he hoped Daniel was still alive but "if your kid has been held by these disgusting people for so long, you hope he is not in pain and at peace". The show was aired just hours before an offer of a $1 million reward ended at midnight. A Queensland police spokeswoman last night said there were "a number of persons of interest" being investigated as part of the case. "The information presented by the show was all familiar to police," she said. "However, we are hopeful it may prompt a member of the public to come forward with new information." Ms Morcombe said that while police had received 875 new leads since December, she hoped the show would trigger someone's memory for that "bit of information that we need". She said that while the private $750,000 reward expired at midnight, the $250,000 police reward would still be available for information leading to a conviction.
