FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda A man who fatally stabbed a Victorian mother-of-four and seriously assaulted some of her children had been released on parole just three weeks earlier, the Supreme Court has heard.
Sean Maraffko, 42, stabbed Joanne Wicking, 29, to death at her house in Albert Street in Kilmore on March 6, 2010, while her young children were present.
Maraffko, who was drunk, then tortured and assaulted two of Ms Wicking’s daughters, aged 10 and eight, which included repeatedly punching, kicking, stabbing and burning one of them with an ignited aerosol can and smashing a glass over her head. The eldest girl managed to escape the house when he ordered her to go and get her two and four-year-old siblings.
Despite initially giving a false account of what happened, Maraffko pleaded guilty late last year to one count of murder and two counts of intentionally causing serious injury.
A pre-sentence plea before Justice Elizabeth Curtain yesterday heard that a mutual friend had arranged for him to move in with Ms Wicking when he was paroled on February 14.
Maraffko, a baker, had received a two-year jail term in July 2009 for charges including recklessly causing injury, false imprisonment, unlawful assault and breaching an intervention order following a violent row with a former partner. He had multiple other prior convictions.
Maraffko’s defence barrister, Trevor Wraight, said his client had a ”really tragic childhood and upbringing”, having had a mother who was a drug-addicted sex worker and an addict father. He was taken from his parents at the age of two after being physically abused. His adoptive parents had abused him sexually and physically.
Justice Curtain remanded Maraffko to be sentenced at a later date.
