Serial Killer Dying For a Playstation
The Sony Playstation is so popular that even geriatrics enjoy some of the intense gaming offered by the console. For instance, a 67-year old serial killer in Australia wants one so bad he’s staging a hunger strike. Guess he hasn’t been daunted by the recent PSN crash and his desire for the gaming console is becoming a need; If he doesn’t get one, he’ll possibly starve to death.
For those of you who don’t know who Ivan Milat is, well, consider yourselves lucky for one thing. He’s possibly one of Australia’s most notorious serial killers and is responsible for the “Backpacker Murders,” having claimed seven or more victims throughout the 1990s, and possibly prior. Most of his victims were international backpackers who traveled the world and were between the ages of 19 and 22. He preyed on young girls and men, deriving pleasure from inflicting pain and suffering.
Ivan Milat methodically bound his victims, sometimes stretching their arms above their heads and gagging them. Once they were bound and rendered defenseless, he would then unleash what can only be described as “frenzied” attacks on the victims. The first two bodies discovered, two young girls, indicated he had bound them both in this manner. He shot one several times, and stabbed the other to the point that some of her ribs were severed. The shocking details of the backpacker murders can be read further here.
Ivan Milat is apparently bored, since he is serving more than seven consecutive life sentences for his crimes, so he probably really does want that Playstation console. In fact, he’s downright stir-crazy and has not eaten in nine days, reports one source. Officials in the High Court in Australia aren’t surprised, because this isn’t the first time Milat has pulled a far-out and crazy stunt to get attention. He’s kind of an attention-whore like that. Back in January of 2009, Milate sawed off one of his own fingers with a plastic knife and attempted to mail it to the High Court in Australia. Doctors were not able to sew the digit back in place. He has also swallowed razor blades and other metallic objects to both harm himself and garner attention.
“There’s no inmate on my watch who would ever get anything close to a Playstation, particularly Australia’s worst serial killer,” said Woodham. “I knew he’d start eating again because he likes his food too much. He can stage as many protests as he likes, but there’d be no point if he got one because he needs two hands to use it.”
Prison staff are currently observing Milat closely, with intravaneous means of feeding him in case he collapses. They are not going to allow him to starve to death in their prison, nor are they going to entertain his desires to have a Playstation console.
This is ridiculous. He wants s a frigging PlayStation?
Let him die already. How much did it cost the tax payers to attempt to sew his finger back on after he sawed it off? How much did it cost when he swallowed the blades? How much is this latest stunt costing the tax payers? For what? Why are they keeping him alive?

He is the ultimate waste of space. Milat hunted his victims before killing them.He deserves zip, zilch, nada.
From Crime Library:
“Next, Dr. Bradhurst began the external examination, methodically checking the entire body for physical evidence. Joannes shirt and hands showed traces of dark hairs. The rotted remains of a cloth used as a gag were removed from her mouth, as were other cloth samples at the throat, suggesting strangulation. An internal examination showed no signs of vaginal or anal penetration, but given the poor condition of the body tissue, it was very difficult to tell. Hair and nail samples were taken for matching with other samples found. A vaginal swab was also taken, as sperm samples can remain in a body for weeks or even months.
Joannes chest showed three stab wounds to the right side, one to the left side and a further stab wound to the neck. When the body was rolled over, the full extent of what could only be described as a frenzied attack became clear. A further two wounds were found to the left side, five more to the right and two to the spine at the base of the neck. Fourteen wounds in all were recorded and measured. The internal exam revealed that five of the stab wounds had cut the spine. Dr Bradhurst speculated that any of the spinal wounds could have been delivered prior to the fatal blows thereby rendering the victim totally helpless.
Two ribs had been totally severed. The hands and arms showed no “defensive wounds,” that normally occur when the victim attempts to ward off a knife attack. This, coupled with the remains of the gag and neck ligature, indicated that the killer was completely in control during the murder. The wounds measured 1 ½” by ¼” with the profile of a Bowie knife or similar style blade.
The arms of Caroline Clarkes body where stretched above her head, which had a red cloth wrapped around it. Bullet holes were clearly visible in the decaying cloth. The cloth was carefully removed and the extent of the injuries became evident. A total of ten bullet holes riddled the skull. Only four exit wounds were found.
Four complete .22 caliber projectiles were recovered from inside the skull. The front of the face and the jaw were shattered, possibly damaged by exiting bullets. She had one single stab wound to the upper back identical to the wounds of the first victim.
The bullets from the body were cleaned and passed on to Sergeant Gerard Dutton, the ballistics expert who was present at the post mortems. He was confident that they, like the other bullets and fired cases collected from the scene, would lead to the identity of the weapon used. A reenactment at the scene later revealed that the gunshot wounds were consistent with having been fired from three different directions, however all ten fired cases were found close together. Sergeant Dutton suggested that the killer may have stood in the one spot and fired the shots, stopping to move the victims head between volleys. In short he had used her for “target practice.”
In an unusual step, Professor John Hilton, the head of forensic medicine, released details of the findings to the large group of reporters, who had gathered outside the morgue. Not accustomed to giving media conferences, he spoke in a faltering, hesitant voice. Even though he was an experienced pathologist, and forensic scientist, he was obviously disturbed by the extent of the injuries and the sheer brutality of the attack.”

Why do they continue to ‘play his games?’
Scum of the earth. The movie Wolf Creek was loosely based on this animal!
I had forgotten about that!
