Man who kidnapped child from remote Australian campsite jailed for 13 years as disturbing new details of abduction emerge
Terrence Kelly, 37, pleaded guilty last year after taking Cleo Smith from her family tent on the Blowholes campsite, near Carnarvon, about 960km north of Perth, in October 2012.
Kelly, whose home was just minutes away from Cleo's family home, will serve more than 11 years in prison before he is eligible for parole. While in the bedroom, Cleo heard on a radio that her parents were looking for, which Kelly turned up to drown out her pleas.Police force did nothing for 18 months after being shown video of girl, 9, being raped, report finds'We'll miss her forever': Family's emotional tribute to Lola James, 2, as 'Jekyll and Hyde' boyfriend guilty of murder
He also tried to tie Cleo's hands and feet to a chair but was unable to because "she was a bit of a fighter"."I wasn't planning to keep her forever, you know. I was getting guilty every day and it was just more weight on my shoulders," Kelly said during a police interview.
