Child killer jailed for 25 years
August 11, 2006 - 1:44PM

AdvertisementA pedophile and convicted killer has been jailed for up to
25 years following the rape and manslaughter of a three-year-old boy.
William Thomas Clare, 34, will not be released from jail before July
2033 after he was sentenced to a minimum of 18 years and nine months
this morning in the NSW Supreme Court.
Clare's sentence was added to a jail term he is already serving for the
assault of the boy's six-year-old sister.
Clare, who had been babysitting the two children, was caught after he
filmed himself raping the girl on September 12, 2003.
He was known to police as a child-sex offender and the Department of
Community Services had been notified several times of the case.
Justice Michael Grove told the court that the attack on the boy, known
only as J, "was accompanied by an intention to gratify a depraved
sexual urge [and] falls within the category of the worst case of
manslaughter.
"Words are really an insufficient medium to convey an appropriate
condemnation of your debauched behaviour," Justice Grove told Clare.
Outside court today, the boy's family, who cannot be named, welcomed
the sentence.
"I am just so relieved that society will be able to move on and not
have somebody of this nature and character out on the streets upsetting
anyone else and their family," the childrens' father said.
Their grandmother said the judge was understanding of the problems the
little boy had faced.
"It was a very, very sad and traumatic time I'm sure for him, and it
has been very difficult for us and we are very thankful to the judge."
Clare began minding the brother and sister the month before the
three-year-old boy died, the Supreme Court was told last month.
Seeing the mother and her children at a Sydney rail station, he told
her she looked "worn out" and offered to babysit.
The woman took him up on the offer, paying him $30 a day to look after
her children.
But on September 13, 2003, after Clare raped the boy, the child vomited
and stopped breathing.
Clare said he applied a 240-volt current to the boy's chest "like a
heart-starter" in an effort to revive him. But this attempt to
"jump-start" the boy's heart could have killed him, the jury heard.
Clare had pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting the boy at his unit at
Croydon, but denied murdering him.
Last month the jury took less than three hours before finding him not
guilty of murder, but guilty of manslaughter.
Clare was also sentenced today to 14 years for the aggravated sexual
assault of the boy.
The sentences, to be served concurrently, will not begin until 2015
which is Clare's earliest release date for the rape of the six-year-old
girl.
