Hit-run driver's 'disgusting' messages aired in court
www.abc.net.au
One man died and another was injured after Jake Danby struck them with his car outside a Darwin shopping centre in 2024, with the driver then sending a series of "disgusting" text messages about the victims.

A 24-year-old man who hit two Aboriginal pedestrians with his car and sped away, later bragging to his friends he’d run down an “oxygen thief”, has been spared actual jail time

The court heard Danby sent a series of “disgusting” text messages to his friends in the hours after the crash, in which he labelled the crash victims as “dogs” and “n***ers”.

No jail ? Lucky he didn’t run Charke Kirk down I guess.

    Does Mastodon give you the context of the thread or just that one comment? Because in context, I was saying in the past century. I absolutely agree that this was going on before that.
