Lloyd Maurice Crosbie (born 16 April 1982 in Wangaratta, Victoria 〔(R v Crosbie ) Supreme Court of Victoria, 19 March 2003〕) is a convicted Australian double murderer, currently serving two consecutive sentences of life imprisonment for the murders of his girlfriend, Melissa Joy Maahs, 18, and her mother, Kaye Lucy Maahs, 54 in the Victorian town of Morwell on 18 August 2001. Crosbie, who often spoke of "killing somebody" to be reunited with his older brothers in prison, was nineteen at the time of the murders. He was sentenced to two consecutive sentences of life imprisonment in the Supreme Court of Victoria in 2003 and will be eligible for parole in 2031, aged 49. ==Early life== Crosbie was born the youngest of five children in a family home that was often the scene of domestic violence. His parents separated when he was five years old and Crosbie was at times placed into foster care. He would often spend times with his older brothers killing dogs, cats and other animals and watching violent films. Crosbie's older brother resides as an inpatient at a psychiatric hospital after being found not guilty of murder due to mental impairment. Another brother is currently serving a lengthy prison sentence for attempted murder. Crosbie spoke regularly of killing somebody to be "reunited" with his brothers.〔 During August 2000, police attended at Crosbie's home when neighbours alerted them of Crosbie smashing his belongings. Police arrested Crosbie and escorted him to the Latrobe Regional Hospital where he was treated by a psychiatrist after making alarming statements. A police officer who escorted Crosbie to the hospital made the following notes, :"Listening to Crosbie he was a very angry and disturbed person. He feels like the world is against him. He has a deep hatred for all those that have caused him grief in the past. I believe that he could cause serious injury to someone in the future. He appeared fixated with the idea of killing someone in an effort to be reunited with his two brothers. All members (of the police force) should be made aware of his thoughts and treat Crosbie with extreme caution.〔" During 2000, Crosbie met Melissa Maahs and commenced a relationship. After a short time they moved in together at Crosbie's father's premises in Morwell. From 5 November 2000 they shared a Ministry of Housing home in Buna Street, Morwell, until 8 April 2001 when the couple moved in to share with Melissa's mother Kaye in Dayble Street. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lloyd Crosbie」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
