In a bid for more freedom, a serial killer has spoken of her challenges since being released from prison, ranging from making friends to using a mobile phone and the internet for the first time.
Regina Kaye Arthurell, who was jailed under the name Reginald Kenneth Arthurell, began transitioning shortly after being released from prison in November last year.
Once dubbed the “cowboy killer”, Arthurell served almost 24 years behind bars for bludgeoning fiancee Venet Mulhall to death at Coonabarabran in 1995 while on parole.
Mr Quinn, Ms Mulhall’s brother, said the killer would always need to be monitored and would remain a “danger to society” until on the “wrong side of the grass”.
He said he was worried about the idea of Arthurell being allowed to travel anywhere in Australia.
Mr Quinn said when the killer left his sister for dead, Arthurell was dressed as a female, who witnesses at the time mistook for the victim.
“This person doesn’t have a desire to be in a relationship, he’s a psychopath and he is just looking for somebody to take advantage of. He’s done that all his life”, Mr Quinn said.
