Media Frenzy: Chris Kahui | Macsyna King | Lipine Sila |

It seems that being a victim or a family member of a victim or a perpetrator or a near convicted perpetrator is the craze now. Once something happens that remotely involves us we are immediately compelled to succumb to the media attention and add fuel to it.
This week we saw Chris Kahui receive advice from a convicted rapist; Denise (Macsyna's half sister) shedding some light on why Macsyna is the way she is; Hannah's mum boldly stating she wants to talk to her child's killer Lipine Sila.

Can't you see that enough is enough; Chris doesn't need advice from a convict, shame on him, the convict just wanted his name in the press again and we gobbled it up. I'm sorry but I don't want to sensationalise a rapist; Denise, thanks for that insight but many of us grew up in less than desirable standards and hello we turned out okay. I cannot for the life of me pass on any empathy to Macsyna, even though she was not charged she is still responsible for those two deaths as she was the mother; As for Hannah's mum all I can say is, do you really think telling him what he did is going to make you feel better, if anything it will make you feel worse, why continue to torture yourself and the justice system is so protective of perpertrators that any attempt to kill him or stab him in the eyes will be met with his personal body guards fending you off. Not fair but true.
