Court releases 'borderline psychopath'
The Queensland Court of Appeal has ordered the release of a child-sex offender described as a "borderline psychopath". A continuing detention order was made against 65-year-old Raymond Yeo in 2006. His criminal history has been described as having the hallmarks of homosexual paedophilia. Yeo is described as a predator who feels no remorse, is opportunistic, impulsive, and someone who has devastated his young victims. In 2007, Yeo was released on a supervision order. The Attorney-General appealed against the decision but it was dismissed. Yeo breached the order and was returned to custody. Now, the Queensland Court of Appeal has ordered his release once again under another 10-year supervision order. This is despite the court affirming Yeo is a serious danger to the community without such an order in place. 22-7-2011 http://www.abc.net.au/news/2011-07-22/court-releases-borderline-psychopath/2806250 |

Pedophile 'Danger To Community'
A SERIAL pedophile should be returned to jail as he is in denial about his offending and has little chance of rehabilitation, a court has been told. Queensland's Attorney-General Kerry Shine today launched an appeal to have Raymond Yeo put back in prison, arguing he remains a danger to the community. Yeo was released from jail in October last year under a strict 10-year supervision order imposed by Queensland Supreme Court Justice Debbie Mullins. The order bans contact with children under 16 and prohibits Yeo from leaving his home at times when children are travelling to and from school. Yeo, 62, has a long criminal history including carnal knowledge and indecent dealings with children under 16. He was most recently convicted in 2001 for sexual offences against boys and served a full five-year sentence and was then subject to a continuing detention order in April 2006 after he was deemed unfit for release. Peter Davis SC, barrister for the Attorney-General, argued in the Queensland Court of Appeal that the release order last year should be rescinded as Yeo still denied ever doing anything wrong. This denial made it virtually impossible for him to benefit from any counselling or programs aimed at sexual offenders. "He's not getting better and won't get better because he won't address his offending behaviour," Mr Davis said, citing psychiatric reports that labelled Yeo as a "borderline psychopath" who has "absolutely no insight into his offending". Defence barrister Paul Smith argued Justice Mullins had been supplied with "ample evidence" to justify her decision to hand down a supervision order last year. Mr Smith said there was psychiatric and medical evidence to suggest his client had been making, and was willing to make, progress with rehabilitation. The Court of Appeal has reserved its decision.
