In short: Neo-Nazis Thomas Sewell and Jacob Hersant have avoided further jail time after they were convicted of a 2021 attack on hikers at a Victorian state park. County Court Judge Kellie Blair wished the pair luck and said she believed the prospects of both men being rehabilitated were good. Sewell and Hersant maintained their innocence after the hearing and made anti-Semitic and homophobic comments to gathered media. What's next? Hersant must complete 200 hours of community service as part of his sentencing.

What on earth is this judge on? You can't have prospects of rehabilitation while your actively acting like a neonazi literally outside the courthouse.... what the hell

And the part where she didn't think their behaviour was racially or politically motivated. Like, they're fucking nazis...it's all racially and politically motivated.
