Issue 60 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd continues with the Remakes Tribunal where we put bad filmmaking on trial. More 40th anniversary films feature, including the cheap and cheerful 1985 remake of King Solomon's Mines - does it deserve to exist, or should it be wiped from cinema history. Then we have a Parole Board for the same year's disastrous film by Paul Verhoeven and Rutger Hauer, Flesh + Blood. Would a remake fix its problems? The first two parts of the issue are already out - Double Reel Monthly and Classics & Hidden Gems - and next week sees a Spotlight episode on Wes Anderson.
Convicted double murderer Mark Lundy was on Wednesday released from prison, after being granted parole last month. The Parole Board also released the written decision outlining its reasons for releasing the 66-year-old. Lundy was twice found guilty of murdering his wife Christine and seven-year-old daughter Amber in their Palmerston North home in August 2000, but maintains his innocence. Reporter Jimmy Ellingham spoke to Lisa Owen.
An innocent man was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and was brutally beaten and stomped to death. On this episode of Crime Beat, Global News senior crime reporter Nancy Hixt shares the latest developments on the senseless murder that happened less than 15 years ago. She'll provide insights from The Parole Board on one killers' bid for freedom and details of the case that have never been shared before.

Issue 59 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd continues with the Remakes Tribunal, where we put bad filmmaking on trial. First up, we look at the 2004 reboot of this month's Classic, Flight of the Phoenix, and ask if it deserves to exist. Then for our Parole Board we look at the 1983 version of The Wicked Lady, and ask if anyone could possibly improve on a historical drama produced by Cannon and directed by Michael Winner... The other parts of this issue are already out - Double Reel Monthly and Classics & Hidden Gems, and we will bring you a Spotlight in M Night Shyamalan next week.
I'm liking what Sir Ron Young is saying about prison sentences today. He's really challenging us, saying that we need to re-think what we do with people given sentences of two-to-three years. He's talking about not sending them to conventional prisons and giving them conjugal rights. This is how they deal with things in Scandinavian countries. He thinks we should do the same here. And I reckon we should too. He's the outgoing head of the Parole Board and he's saying that short prison sentences aren't working and we need to have a re-think. He's saying that offenders who are sent to prison for this amount of time are more likely to re-offend, compared to people who go inside for longer. For say, eight years. And there are stats to back it up. Sir Ron says the re-offending rate for people locked up on shorter prison sentences is 40 percent. And for those who do longer sentences, the reoffending rate is about 10 percent. So you can't argue with that. What we can argue about, though, is whether Sir Ron's ideas have any merit. And I think they do. He reckons a much better thing to do with people who commit crimes that get them a two or three year sentence, would be not to send them to the jails we have now - and, instead, house them within communities in facilities that are less like prisons, where they'd be allowed to vote, and also entitled to conjugal visits from their partners. Which is the approach they take in Scandinavian countries. Sir Ron's coming at this from the aspect of re-offending. But, in particular, rehabilitating someone who commits a crime. And he says that with the offenders who only have two or three years inside, they have way less opportunities to get rehabilitated and end-up spending a lot of their time hanging out with serious crims. He describes IT as “a university of crime”. And he thinks it would be way better if these offenders went somewhere else, where it felt less like a prison and more like normal life. He admits, though, that it could be hard thing for some people to swallow. Especially, given the political and public interest in tougher prison sentences. But, as a society, what's more important? Punishing offenders or trying to make sure they don't offend again? As Sir Ron says, once a crime has been committed - you can't change that. But the thing you can try to do, is to try and stop them offending again. And, if this alternative way being suggested by Sir Ron today could do a better job of preventing crimes from happening, then why not give it a go? If most of the offenders doing these short sentences spend most of their time inside learning how to become a better criminal, then why would we stick with the way we're doing things? Sir Ron is saying today that these people on two-or-three year sentences are being “educated in the way of crime”. So, of course, they should be in different environments. And, of course, they should be prepared as much as possible for life beyond prison. I was reading about the “open prisons” in some Scandinavian countries - where Sir Ron is drawing his inspiration for doing things differently here in New Zealand. One of them, in Sweden, lets inmates hold down jobs. They head out for the day to work and come back at night. There's even a car park for them and, if they work late, a meal is left out for them. Essentially, what it comes down to, is these Scandinavian countries don't shut prisoners out of society completely. Which is what Sir Ron thinks we should do here in New Zealand offenders sentenced for two-to-three years. If it would mean less re-offending, it's worth trying, isn't it?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Recently retired Chair of the Parole Board, Sir Ron Young, is saying short sentences may be doing more harm than good. "We can't do anything about the crime that someone's committed who's already in prison," he said. "We can try and do something about the crimes that they could commit by reducing reoffending, and that's putting huge effort into rehabilitation." LISTEN ABOVE.

Sir Ron Young has just finished as chair of the Parole Board after nearly seven years.
On today's episode, the journalist who was accidentally added to a group-chat discussing US plans to bomb Yemen has released a series of unredacted text messages, the Parole Board has ordered the immediate release of hunger striker Dean Wickliffe from prison, Green MP Tamatha Paul has come under fire over comments she made about an increase in police patrols, we hear from Paul as well as the Police Minister Mark Mitchell, and a public radio time capsule has been unearthed by Parliament's security services.
The Parole Board has ordered the immediate release of hunger striker Dean Wickliffe from prison. Lawyer Sam Vincent spoke to Corin Dann.
You would think this could not get any worse. But it did. Tina shares how she was retraumatised by professionals who put her under the microscope and took her beloved baby boy away from her after Shane Jenkin gouged out her eyes in a premeditated and sadistic attack in April 2011. You will not believe what you are hearing. Tina has been failed again by a Parole Board who agreed to the recommendation to move Jenkin to an open prison, ready for release.

Laura and Tina discuss Shane Jenkin's violent history, his time in prison, the 2022 Parole Board hearing where it was determined Jenkin was too dangerous to release compared to the 2024 Parole Board Hearing where it was recommended Jenkin was ‘safe' to be transferred to an open prison, ready for release. Jenkin gave Tina a life sentence. He held her hostage for 12 hours denying her medical care and when doctors finally assessed Tina's injuries, they told her that the 18-stone abuser had attacked her with such force that they could see his nail marks in her sockets. We don't believe he is ‘safe.' Do you?

Issue 58 of the monthly magazine podcast for the discerning film nerd continues with the Remakes Tribunal, where we put bad filmmaking on trial.

A group of bikies converged on Sydney airport. Within minutes, one was dead and others injured. It was an incident that set off one of the world's most intense and effective gang operations, and led to a plethora of law changes and high profile convictions. Deborah Wallace is a titan of NSW Police. Retiring in 2019 after 36 years in the force, she became known across Australia as 'The Gangbuster', after successful operations in the intense region of Cabramatta, and then the aforementioned Strike Force Raptor. The beginning of her career though was much more abstract. She was involved in one of Australia's most horrific cases. The rape and murder of Anita Cobby in 1986.

Since the beginning of the RGS our go-to guest on issues concerning the Canadian justice system, Correctional Service Canada and the Parole Board of Canada has been a former Alberta crown attorney, executive director of the Canadian Police Association, senior policy advisor to a federal Minister of Public Safety, Scott Newark. In the 90's this included so-called "Club Fed" prisons like Ferndale in B.C. which included a 9 hole golf course inmates were allowed to use. In recent years the Canadian justice system has come under significant criticism for the easy (instant) parole granted dangerous individuals, for the moving of convicted serial rapist, kidnapper and murderer Paul Bernardo from a maximum to medium-security prison. We took our program inside two federal prisons, Joyceville and Warkarth, for live shows with the inmates committees. At Joyceville, we asked the inmates committee what would happen to Clifford Olson, British Columbia serial child/youth murderer if he were transferred into the general population of the prison, as Olson had been requesting. The chairman of the committee said bluntly "he would be murdered."

In Episode 15, Lisa O'Brien and guest host Jennifer Harmon talked about State of Oklahoma v. Phillip Dean Hancock. Hancock's November, 2023 execution was preceded by controversy, including claims by their least favorite Oklahoma legislators (one former and one current), who claimed that Hancock was exercising his “God-given right to defend himself,” when he brutally murdered two men, both of whom were unarmed and posed no threat to him. They looked at the 2001 murders of Robert Jett, Jr. and James Lynch, III, the evidence against Hancock, his trial, direct appeals and state and federal post-conviction claims, including an effort to use DNA testing to prove his claims of self-defense. Then they talked about the Oklahoma Pardon and Parole Board recommendation of clemency, Governor Stitt's last minute denial and Hancock's execution on November 30, 2023. Jennifer Harmon is a well-known community advocate and Alert Neighbor captain in midtown Tulsa.

Homicide survivors know that "closure" is a myth. (Closure literally means "to conclude.") Lack of closure is demonstrated in many ways, like attending the parole hearing. Here we will learn from Jeanne Dotts Brykalski as she describes her fight to keep the offender who killed her parents behind bars. Each time she participates she knows it will open old wounds. This episode sheds light on the experience of facing a parole board, offers tips, and extends an invitation to read and sign a petition to keep the offender locked up. (You needn't know Jeanne nor live in Tennessee to do so.)Please join us, won't you?

Laura analyses Ronald Evan's behaviour and Rob Murphy reveals something shared by Michelle Leonard, the undercover police officer who caught him and how his 2022 documentary about Ronald Evans helped catch 81-year-old Evans once more. Police arrested Evans the day after the documentary was broadcast. As she jailed Evans for four years last November, the judge said: "The risk you pose to women is significant. The combination of your history and continuing sexual interest underlies my concern you are a risk of serious sexual harm to women." 83-year-old Evans is back before the Parole Board in October 2024. Twice a Parole Board took the decision to release Ronald Evans early. Will women be put at risk a third time?
