One of Australia's worst pedophiles, childcare worker Ashley Paul Griffith, has launched a bid to slash the life sentence he received for abusing dozens of young children.
Lawyers for the notorious predator on Thursday argued in the Queensland Court of Appeal that the 27‑year non‑parole period he was handed in 2024 was "manifestly excessive" as they sought leave to appeal.
Griffith is behind bars after a horrifying history of abuse stretching almost two decades was exposed.
