Will this notorious killer be set free? The truth is more shocking than you think: Karl Stefanovic weighs in
- Replies 45
The chilling news of a notorious serial killer potentially walking free from prison has sent shockwaves through the community. Paul Denyer, the man who cold-bloodedly took the lives of three innocent young women three decades ago in Melbourne, is now facing the possibility of release.
The gruesome details of his heinous crimes still haunt those who remember the brutal murders of 18-year-old Elizabeth Stevens, 22-year-old Deborah Fream, and 17-year-old Natalie Russell.
The magnitude of Denyer's actions cannot be understated. He showed no mercy as he ruthlessly ended the lives of his victims — bright young women with their whole lives ahead of them: a promising TAFE student, a new mother who had just given birth, and a schoolgirl with her whole life ahead of her.
Their families and loved ones were left understandably shattered, and their lives were forever changed by the senseless acts of violence committed.
After a technicality in his original sentencing, Denyer could potentially be released from prison, serving only 30 years of his three-life sentences.
This has sent shockwaves of fear and anger throughout the community, leaving many concerned citizens asking: How could someone who committed such horrific crimes against innocent young women be allowed to walk free?
The news of Paul Denyer's potential release from prison has struck a chord with many, including prominent TV personality Karl Stefanovic of the Today morning show. Stefanovic, known for his charismatic and affable demeanour, couldn't hide his distress as he spoke out passionately against the criminal being set free.
In a powerful and emotional statement, Stefanovic didn't mince words; he boldly echoed the sentiments of many who are appalled by Denyer's heinous crimes and the possibility of him roaming the streets once again.
'Paul Denyer stalked the streets of Melbourne. Plucking young women at random and brutally killing them,' Stefanovic said; he was unapologetically blunt in his assessment of Denyer, calling him a threat to society.
Stefanovic further emphasised that Denyer has never shown remorse for his actions and has never provided a reason for his senseless killings. With three murders to his name and 30 years behind bars, he argued that the crimes should not be swept under the rug.
'Now, he's eligible for parole. Can you believe it?' the TV host went on to say.
The horrific details of Paul Denyer's crimes are chilling and heartbreaking. His victims were young women who were simply going about their daily lives. Elizabeth Stevens, just 18 years old, was on her way home from the library when Denyer attacked her, strangling her and slashing her throat.
Deborah Fream, only 22 years old and a new mother to a baby boy named Jake, was brutally abducted and strangled to death by Denyer while she was out buying milk to make dinner — robbing her of the chance to raise her son.
Natalie Russell, just 17 years old, was walking home from school when Denyer dragged her from train tracks, stabbed her, and hid her in scrubland. There were other women who were attacked by him but fortunately survived.
The serial killer's impact is still felt to this day; it's believed he may have taken even more lives had police not caught him a few weeks after the three murders.
With Denyer potentially being a threat to the public, Federal Minister Bill Shorten acknowledged that a mere 30 years isn't enough for the families of the victims, who are obviously still in pain from the loss of their loved ones.

Federal Minister Bill Shorten acknowledged that despite 30 years being a significant amount of time, it may not feel long enough for the families who have lost their loved ones to Denyer's heinous crimes.
The pain and emptiness left by the senseless murders are immeasurable, and the families continue to carry the burden of that loss every day.
When asked about Denyer's release, Government Minister Mary-Anne Thomas declined to comment, stating that the workings of the parole board are beyond her jurisdiction. She explained that the delicate balance between justice for the victims and the legal process is a sensitive matter that requires careful consideration.
The Department of Justice and Community Safety has also cited confidentiality laws, preventing them from confirming or notifying the public about parole decisions. The lack of transparency adds to the uncertainty and unease surrounding Denyer's potential release, leaving the community in a state of anticipation and concern.
