The issue

These dangerous laws sicken me. Child sex offender Gary Brabham has just been released - serving just 6 months for raping an 6 year old girl. Queensland's child sex abuse sentences are weak and offensive - they need urgent review.

I’m friends with the victim’s mum. The judge reported that Gary showed "no remorse". He even tried to appeal this lenient sentence. He's now out, free to abuse innocent victims again.

He’s the son of a famous racing driver, using his family’s wealth to throw cash at lawyers to fight his way through the justice system.

Yet the Queensland justice system is allowing this behaviour, continuing to fail abused children, knowingly letting a child sex offender walk our streets.

It's time to put an end to these dangerously lenient sentences for child sex abusers in Queensland - please sign and share my petition to the Premier!
