The crimes Jamie Curtis committed could not have been more brutal or cruel. He abducted an innocent young couple; tortured and murdered the 22-year-old man, then repeatedly raped his 17-year-old fiancée. Curtis spent 32 years in prison for one of Tasmania’s most sadistic attacks, but in 2018 was granted his freedom. Within weeks he had breached the conditions of his release and was back behind bars. Now the parole board has given Curtis another chance, outraging the community and terrifying his surviving victim, who argues he has long given up any right to be free. But as Tara Brown discovers in a painful confrontation, there is one person determined to stand by this devil of a man.
