As Casefile has, I use the name of the family killed rather than the name usually used in the Australian media.

It will be thirty years in a few weeks since the terrible event at Greenough. Two little ladies, their big brother, and their mum, murdered by someone i really wish i didn’t have to call a human being.

I have to agree with the Western Australian police that the only regret anyone could have about his punishment is that the crime did not happen in 1983 when that “man” could have – should have – been sent to the gallows.
