I wouldn't call him a coward for that. Removing himself from existence is probably the most decent thing he's ever done.

Dunno 'bout "blood lust", Mr MDU, and I for one was not "celebrating" but just relieved he was dead. I was really pissed off hearing Dixon was appealing yet again. I *know* it's his legal right to do so, but I found it really galling that the taxpayer's money is wasted on such things.
I also felt some emotion seeing Liam Reid's face after his sentencing, when it was pretty damned obvious he is basically incapable of either feeling remorse for his actions or being rehabilitated, yet we have to pay for 26+ years of his food and board. $70k+ per year? That's $1.82 meeelleeeons, without allowing for inflation. Why not just give that to the victims and give him a lead injection?
A celebratory lead injection? No - just a dispassionate weighing up of what would be just and best for all concerned, including Reid.

knowing that his demons tortured him to death is good enough. theres on murderer who i hope doesnt come out alive, and id love nothing more than hearing hes in solitary, cos i know the brain is its own worst enemy.

what did reid do? i know the name, but cant recall the crime.
He kidnapped, raped & murdered the deaf girl in Christchurch. One very sick fuck.
i was hoping it was graham burton - dixon's victims were in his circle - burton's was someone minding his own business.
Dixon murdered James Te Aute, a complete stranger who was in the wrong place at the wrong time, hardly in Dixon's circle.
Burton had the disadvantage of killing at a young age (Royhipnol sp? and alcohol will do that to a young fella's mind). I wouldn't think there'd be much hope for someone like that going inside for murder so young. Sad thing is they're getting younger all the time.

Dixon lead a sad life that started with drug use [and a questionable mental state] and ended in the brutalisation of friends and murder of a random.
The various re-trials and attempted re-trials came at the insistence of his lawyer who maintained Dixon suffered serious mental issues. Details surrounding his death go along way to supporting this theory.
We have on this site a long running thread supporting those KBers who suffer depression and mental health related problems, why then do we want to burn Dixon for suffering exactly the same fate?
Societies obsession with the retribution component of law and order over the rehabilitation component breeds criminals and violence within our prisons nationwide. Many of those locked up need help and never receive it. Society struggles to 'fix' or treat appropriately individuals like Dixon while locked up, and we end up with Cases like Burton who on release [clearly criminally insane] starts another violent rampage. It is the justice system and health professionals that fail us, and who are every bit as liable for instances like the Burton case.
Clapping our hands over Dixon's death may well be our collective first reaction [certainly mine!], but the fact remains a man whose family still loved him are grieving regardless of the brutality and sadness of his existence, and that society is partly responsible for his actions.
Our thoughts should be at this time how can we red flag the 'Dixons' of our community before it is to late. Failure for us to speak up are best illustrated by the Glassie case.
Flame away.

Blood Lust is ugly.
I can understand where you're coming from, but with regards to his family, I've read reports of him being chained to the clothesline when he was a child and treated appallingly. While none of that excuses his violent offending as an adult, I would like to know where his 'family' was while he was subject to this alleged abuse and what part they played in his life while he was in prison.
I'm happy that he is no longer drawing breath and wasting tax payers' money, but if he'd killed or maimed someone I loved, I'd wish he'd never drawn breath in the first place.

Sorry, missed your quote in the middle of my quote.
But how do we understand the "sickness" (provided we can understand it)? And presuming it's a "from the cradle" type approach, what do we do about the current crop of reprobates? Like that 15 year old kid who murdered Karen Aim? Who admitted attacking another woman on the same street two weeks earlier, and was out that night to smash the windows of the school.
How can we stop the behaviour from happening? Make prospective parents take a test and sterilise them if they fail?
And could Dixon have been fixed? Didn't he have something like 160 previous convictions? Can anyone at that level be "saved" from themselves? Do they even want to be?
We can't help those who refuse to help themselves. Ultimately, locking them up and throwing away the key might be the way to protect society from them (like William Bell or Liam Reid). We keep giving these guys 2nd, 3rd, 4th chances to rehabilitate and they keep throwing it back in our (collective) faces. It's easy for people to say "give him another chance, he's done his time" until they (or their friends or familes) are victims of a violent crime.
As I say, it's a complex problem.

IMHO P, unlike Pot, Alcohol, Herion et al, does (with regular use) lead to sleep deprivation at the nasty psychological effects that come from a serious lack of sleep. That is what sets it apart from the others in my mind. LSD is bad for sleep deprivation too, but I've never gone for more than a week on Acid and doubt many could.
I agree that drugs should never be an excuse for anybody's behaviour or actions. What scares the shit out of me is the escalating level of mindless violence in our society of late. I attribute a lot of that to P.

I can't figure why Barry (Bleeding) Hart was given so much air time. Don't, just don't, even give him time to draw breath. Ignore him. No one is interested in his pathetic "he should have been saved from himself" bleating.
Dixon committed murder, mayhem, terrorism and heartache on many people. And it was his choice to take drugs. His actions alone that put him where he was. I'm fecken well sick of hearing that its someone else's fault.
If Hart wants a Dept of Correction investigation, let him fund it. Goodness knows, he's made a living - a probably a good one at that - out the 'poor me' industry.
I moved to NZ to get away from that shite and enjoy a country that is populated by people who call a spade a spade and took responsibility for their actions, and are fundamentally a very friendly bunch of bastards. I love it here, have assimilated to the kiwi way (religiously following the FIFO principal) and am teaching my kids to be good people grounded in kiwi values.
Anyone want to put in for a one way air ticket for Barry Hart to go to Britain, where they will welcome him and his perverse attitude with open arms? If so, give me a yell.

Societies obsession with the retribution component of law and order over the rehabilitation component breeds criminals and violence within our prisons nationwide. Many of those locked up need help and never receive it. Society struggles to 'fix' or treat appropriately individuals like Dixon while locked up, and we end up with Cases like Burton who on release [clearly criminally insane] starts another violent rampage. It is the justice system and health professionals that fail us, and who are every bit as liable for instances like the Burton case
Thanks, six. I was searching through that thread for some sense and human compassion and I finally found it.
Were were the neighbors when Nia Glassie was being tortured, often in plain view outside the house?
Where was society when this was going on?
"She told the court of Dixon being sexually abused as a child and growing up in a violent environment.
Their disciplinarian mother was heavily involved with the Jehovah's Witnesses and looked after former psychiatric patients in their Ponsonby home. A young and hostile Dixon was tied to the washing line and locked in the toilet for hours."

Dixon did some evil things and he was punished. Too bad some of those who stand by and do nothing while children are abused get away scot free.

6PB & MDU - I agree completely with both of your sentiments :sunny:
What I would say is this...apologies for the typical Libran two sided response.
I am not going to miss Dixon or the publicity of those creepy eyes, I am sure many/most of the victims will probably rest a little easier now knowing he is gone but I don't think good stuff! Well done! Yay the guy is dead!
I don't believe he should have been in 'prison' he should have been in a 'high security psychiatric hospital' of some sort possibly drugged beyond stupification so he couldn't be a risk to himself or anyone else'.
Taxpayers money? Hate to say it but our money already goes towards underfloor heating and plasma TV screens for other really bad arse crims who do and are capable of making a choice to do bad things.
Dixon was 'psycho and insane' these were not a choices he made. The things he did were because his brain compelled him to do them. Does that mean he is not guilty? Hell no! None of those people deserved their injuries or deaths of course! The threat of him (had he survived) hurting again is scary and hard to swallow but shitty upbringing or not no one 'chooses to be insane' and as such I don't celebrate his passing 'while in the care of the system'. If one of the other inmates had taken him out it might not have been so bad even as then you can kind of justify it HOWEVER this guy was deteriorating and they knew it. They also knew he was madder than a cut snake. I do believe someone cocked up here and knowing people even with 'slight' issues gives you a whole different perspective on what can and can't be taken for granted in terms of how people can control and moderate their behaviours and actions.
OH yeah one other thing...apparently he was high on P while in prison...WTF? How does HE get his hands on that in there?

Dixon lead a sad life that started with drug use [and a questionable mental state] and ended in the brutalisation of friends and murder of a random.
The various re-trials and attempted re-trials came at the insistence of his lawyer who maintained Dixon suffered serious mental issues. Details surrounding his death go along way to supporting this theory.
We have on this site a long running thread supporting those KBers who suffer depression and mental health related problems, why then do we want to burn Dixon for suffering exactly the same fate?
Societies obsession with the retribution component of law and order over the rehabilitation component breeds criminals and violence within our prisons nationwide.

It is the justice system and health professionals that fail us, and who are every bit as liable for instances like the Burton case.
Clapping our hands over Dixon's death may well be our collective first reaction [certainly mine!], but the fact remains a man whose family still loved him are grieving regardless of the brutality and sadness of his existence, and that society is partly responsible for his actions.
Our thoughts should be at this time how can we red flag the 'Dixons' of our community before it is to late. Failure for us to speak up are best illustrated by the Glassie case.
Flame away.
Not me SBP. I can be as rednecked as the next man but it's on occasions and posts like yours that brings me down to relaity. There was much said about his 'so called insanity' that most including myself just thought was a put on but now I'm not so sure. Word is that he beat his head against a wall.

Re thread tile - "Dixon is dead" - or did he have a helping hand. Watching this story develop he does not appear to have much in the way of suicide hallmarks. Lawyer suggests a guard bashing / torture session occurred just prior to the event. And todays news report reveal "future orientation" - he was looking forward to Court and all the attention, had P related investments, groupies and drugs on tap, interest in his families (8 kids) welfare a week prior, and was seeking to commission a biography. Narcissistic sociopaths typically do not throw the towell in especially when the going is so good - and their only complaint is boredom. Though I s'pose P withdrawal can be nasty - which possible diagnosis appears to be why he was kept inside after recent assessment... not transferred to a secure psych ward..
Motive to throw this one in the "too hard basket" ie the coffin... we're spoilt for choice apparently. Had got prison staff in trouble (was obviously doing deals with staff as a dangerous inmate to be allowed private unsupervised :lol:visits with a female alleged psychologist), and was known to stir shit up among inmates...to pass the time. Prison can be a dangerous place :Pokey:.
Autopsy report will be interesting. Was the terminal event head injury... or strangulation. And either way, whose call. Could he have been about to make another prison torture claim with the HRC, and get a payout. The guards who were involved in another famous case (John Gillies and others) were never sacked, where were they? Are criminal investigations even attempted in prison under sus circumstances, or would it also be in the too hard basket?

Maybe the difference between Dixon and Nias killers and similar feral space wasters, and little Nia, is that childhood killed their humanity potential - just not the physical vessel. What would an A.D. biography have revealed about blind eyes to a suffering boy treated as an unloved dog by reputed nutters.

The papers were saying that his wealth came from P dealing.
There were also reports that he had somewhere around $100K on term deposit about to mature (also from drugs) and that this money will be shared amongst his offspring (9 of them, or thereabouts)
What I want to know, is why the crown aren't looking to seize all these assets under the Proceeds of Crime Act? Does the Act not apply after death? I am presuming they didn't know about it while he was alive (which seems unlikely, but maybe) so they didn't try earlier.

Not at all. But there's a good argument that the law should be changed so that a defendant is required to match every dollar he (or she) spends on their defense with a dollar contributed towards the prosecution's costs (with the extra costs dropped should the defendant be found not guilty).

Utterly unworkable, given that criminal defendants are impecunious. Its only a very rare case (John Barlow used some of his own money I think) where a criminal defendant has any means to pay at all. And the badass scumbags (your Antonie Dixons, Martin Bells etc) have never had a job, have no assets and would be better with abullet in the head. Hopefully a lot of the recidivist scum in prison will take heed of Dixon's shining example.

OMG:shit:............where the fuck did you dream that up??.........the converse of your argument of course is prosecution paying defendant costs in entirety if/when the defendant is found not guilty and of course the prosecution matching payments while going through due process!?...fairs-fair!

That shows an utter lack of comprehension of the way that the legal system works, the place of a defence barrister and their role in the process. Interestingly some of the best lawyers in the country are criminal defence lawyers, and dont for a second think they're in it for the money. The real money in law in this country is at one of the big 4 firms, doing commercial, resource management or civil litigation.
Equating the lawyers with the actions of their clients is just wrong, and says more about the person doing it than the lawyers involved.

Some defense lawyers frequently partake in immoral antics and lifestyles. I could itemise specific cases, but don't have decades to waste. Hoping your post is not a symptom of ambitions in that direction HenryDC.
A recent journal published to air NZ defense lawyer quibbles and angst had them expressing "deep sadness" over the number of repeat killer drink drivers receiving jail terms in the order of a year.... and jail terms at all. Open minded till their brains fall out, not gifted is my definition of it. If they don't do it for the money that just deepens my concerns. Old Rider has the right idea.

Yep... the guards should have been holding hands and singing him to sleep with "Kumbayah..." (sp?). Always someone elses fault....
He should have been put down at a much younger age... They shoot violent out of control dogs, don't they?
Because she knows [as do the girls] Dixon was a sick man.
I couldn't help but wonder if she would have been so caring or forgiving if he had killed her girl...? At least her daughter is still around.

OH yeah one other thing...apparently he was high on P while in prison...WTF? How does HE get his hands on that in there?
He was psycho and insane in the first trial, with the crazy hairdo and weird eyes... but returned to total normalcy when the guilty verdicts were read out. A very cunning player....
Very normal at the re-trial too.... quite articulate actually, outlining his upbringing etc... The actions of a psycho? I think not.

I hate to move against the tide,
I have to say this whole thing is a tragedy. There is quite rightly outrage for this man's crimes and a need for retribution for the victims. That is why most of the reaction here is understandable.
What I have tried to do, though, is to imagine that I was a member of Dixon's family. I would well know how mistreated he was as a child and his often pshycotic(sp) and disturbed behaviour - and would know the reasons for it.
The govt in recent years has closed down many of the secure units and facilities that used to house and look after the mentally disturbed and shifted them to halfway houses or straight in to the community. Result: there are a lot of people that are in jail that shouldn't be there in a decent society.
I'm no expert, but Dixon's behaviour/testimony/background would indicate to me that he has severe mental issues. Is a maximum security proson the right place to sort these - or will it make the problem worse?
Are we saying that we should "put these people down"? Or "good riddence"? But what if this was a member of your family we are talking about? Would you still feel the same?
Woukld you feel that a further tragedy was that your family member never got the help they needed?

Nah. We won.
Darwinism - yep...
Nazism... ??????????
Our collective callous attitude to Dixon mirrors the approach the Nazi's would have taken, I.E to kill the mentally unstable.
To 'win' would have required an approach that would have culminated in Dixon receiving care/medication/whatever that would have seen him behave as a normal person [when released of course].
We failed Dixon, but even the idealists like myself find it hard to care!...he was a very bad man.

But that was the problem. He feigned madness in the court. When found guilty, he was suddenly "cured." He had a re-trial and was still "cured." He wasn't mad. He was bad. Hence Darwin = yes. Nazism = No.

....how mistreated he was as a child and his often pshycotic(sp) and disturbed behaviour - ....
.... Dixon's behaviour/testimony/background would indicate to me that he has severe mental issues. Is a maximum security proson the right place to sort these - or will it make the problem worse?

Mental disorder does not equal insane. Many with mental disorders are sane.
A depressed person who kills an innocent while not psychotically depressed is sane and guilty. If their depression is psychotically so eg they believed the victim was Hitler reincarnated and likely up to no good, well then insane.
Checkout the difference between psychotic & psychopathic.
Dixon was psychopathic ='s mentally disordered so far as having a personality (typical way of interacting with the world) of a very bad makeup, that can be considered so far off the big lump bell curve spread as to constitute a disorder (socially mutant), but was sane (under the law) as he knew what the situations around him involved, and the improper nature and illegal consequences of his actions. Proceeded regardless.
Insanity under our law refers to being out of reality contact due to a brain chemical imbalance (eg believing God or the devils voice is commanding you) as to make you not so responsible for actions. A personality disorder like psychopathy is no defense, thank god. Dixon tried the defense that P had him insane - but it was thrown out, and further discredited by his later boasting re his crimes. That can not have all happened under the influence.
His insane posing in Court was just further evidence of his personailty being psychopathic (badass) - self serving manipulative behaviour is on the checklist. Incidentally nuts don't have staring eyes like that bad, thyroid disorders do so he shoulda researched better and done something like pretending he was hearing auditory hallucinations.
I've nursed people who killed while insane, but once medication returned sanity they were horrified at their actions, even to the point of suicidality.
Still don't buy that the probability is Dixon freely suicided but only 1 or possibly 2 people know 4 sure. His family have said they're dubious so a Police investigation round his many sus injuries is on per the Herald. Dixon claimed they withheld needed meds - not sure if he meant P or the real thing. Knowing he was under stress they allowed possession of killer objects - WTF of all the so called suicide proofed cells for those in suspected "timnes of trouble".
There could still be a killer on the loose inside - that may be kosha if we aren't concerned re Dixon, but what of others stuck inside who may not be so noxious and may be exposed to risk of unofficial execution (active or by looking away) without judicially stamped death sentence - appeal rights etc. I know of a guy died inside through captors failure to provide insulin - innocent but arrested as a supposed drunk since he was acting goofy from low sugar levels This sudden death inside fate happens lots to aborigines who hang like Dixon did, apparently.

Nah... As Candor points out in a long winded but detailed and corrct way....
Indicators that he "could" be suicidal. People who commit suicide are not necessarily insane. (Summed up in short, ay Candor?)

These "not so noxious" types are in Paremoremo..... Most are killers. Not so noxious types go to the prison farms. BURTON and BELL still roam around, so there is hope yet....
The insulin fella died in a Police cell, not at Parry... if we are talkin of the same one... Thought he was drunk and gave him a bed to sleep it off, no charges, just a place to sober up.... Times have changed, but it was a tragic event, that one.

Semantics. We can call the anti-social behaviour whatever we like. Failing to address the 'fault' and clapping when an individual dies is just wrong.
Psychotic or psychopathic?.........we can call it what we like, the truth is no method of fixing the behaviour exists, and that equals FAIL!

Yor jokin now aren't you ? Now it's our fault. Your are not into social work are you ? Why don't you take people like this into your home and give them the help they are crying out for. Sometimes the breeding is wrong and we should have taken the steps nature does .
We have some sick fu.k's locally that have taking to grabbing the goats that are tethered on the roadside and dragging them behind their cars for for fun. How are you going to fix that fault with your present PC climate. How can you honestly protect these types with your "Social Engineering" crap ? not stirring just disappointed that ppl want to protect ppl that perform like this in society then use its rules to protect themselves.

Don't get me wrong, I 'aint crying nor do I wish to protect the 'Dixon's' of our society, furthermore; enough of the Neanderthal exists within my self to guarantee a totally illogical response if my family had been involved.......
Blame lies with society when for all our criminal study we are completely unable to fix psychological problems. We are in effect waiting for study and technology to 'catch up' and provide solutions. Cheering in the mean time makes us look pretty fucken backward.

Not sure what you mean by solutions. The Dixons are what they are and can no more be changed than the Mother Teresas after reaching age 7 or 11 at the outside - as these are the critical parameters for when the personality structure sets in cement. Earlier attempts on social control of adult no hopers included labotomies but containment where they can live with others they relate to would seem kinder.
There are programs that can teach motivated people who are not at the serious end of psychopathy spectrum some control of the worst behaviours of preference in adult psychopaths, but this really goes against the grain for them and does not upgrade the inner engine, which is most likely to rebel against the niceness training brigade. (This lot work in our prisons on criminogenic thought stopping which interrupts offence commission, with mild success ie reduced court appearances).
There are also heavy ethical issues that mitigate against deprogramming and reprogramming of human hardware. Saw it done once in a criminally insane ward with the patients consent but this was a 5 year staff intensive program that involved challenging and stripping every aspect of the psychopaths thinking, feelings and behaviour taking him back to the "empty vessel of babyhood" then reparenting.
We killed the existing person in a real sense. The number of staff burnt out, staff numbers required for frequent restraints etc, risk of suicidality when all "antisocial" thinking and behaviour defense mechanism are stripped, and the cost of several million dollars that was factored in as a shared cost to the health and justice departments make this treatment prohibitive. The end result was someone who could be trusted to leave the grounds with one instead of several staff members (now able to soothe him) and not go on a rampage, versus him never being up to public mixing. And he actually became a nice guy rather than the vicious feral his scuzzy subcultural upb ringing had made him first.
Containment or redirecting the aggression into corporate or political careers with minders is most satisfactory.

TBH, there are a few more I would be pleased to see 6 feet under. The vast majority, there is hope for. Even if it is a glimmer, it is there. DIXON's glimmer, and a few of his roomie mammas or pappas, went out years ago.
