A human skull found washed up on a beach on Tuesday was the first in a series of grisly discoveries that have left Victoria Police investigating five deaths.
By Saturday, along with the human remains found on North Shore beach in Geelong, two men had been stabbed to death and two bodies had been found in mysterious circumstances by distressed passersby.
On Saturday morning, a Port Melbourne man was charged with murder following the death of another man in Port Melbourne on Friday.

Hugh Brown, 44, faced Melbourne Magistrates Court on Saturday morning and was remanded to reappear on June 23.
The charges follow the discovery of a man with life-threatening stab wounds in Nott Street about 3pm on Friday, who died later that day.
The 44-year-old victim was also from Port Melbourne.
The charges follow a week of crime and mystery in Victoria.
On Tuesday, a fishermen found human remains believed to be a skull on the North Shore beach about 11.30am when the tide went out.
On Wednesday, a passerby found a body in a parked car in Melbourne’s outer suburb of Ringwood. The silver Holden Commodore may have been parked on Wildwood Grove, for several weeks, police believe.
On Friday, a jogger discovered a body wrapped in a cloth at a tennis club car park in Dallas, in Melbourne’s north. Police are yet to determine the cause of the death or identify the body.
On the same day, hours after the Port Melbourne man was fatally stabbed, a man believed to have been at a house party in Norlane, in Geelong on Friday night was stabbed to death.
Victoria Police spokeswoman Natalie Webster said aside from the Port Melbourne stabbing, there were no further developments in any of the cases.
When asked how police were coping with the workload, Ms Webster said Victoria Police would always have capacity to ensure an appropriate response to “these types of incidents”.
“It’s not particularly different to other similar incidents such as vehicle fatalities,” she said.
Police are urging anyone with information to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.

Tasmania could go from Channel 9 to Channel Nein as network yet to sign deal to broadcast in state
June 18, 2016 11:00am
THE Voice, The Footy Show and 60 Minutes could all be missing from Tasmanian TV screens from next month unless an eleventh-hour deal can be struck for Nine Network programs to be broadcast in the state.
Nine has been left without an agreement for Tasmania two weeks out from the biggest shake-up of regional television in decades.
The uncertainty comes after the network’s home of 30 years, WIN, switched its affiliation nationally to Ten.
From July 1, Network Ten programs including MasterChef, The Project and cricket’s Big Bash League will be seen on WIN.
Southern Cross will continue to broadcast Seven Network content.
Nine is in negotiations with Tasmanian Digital Television (TDT), a joint venture between WIN and Southern Cross, but told the Sunday Tasmanian little progress had been made.
“We have failed to date to make meaningful progress with the joint venture but continue to press for a solution to ensure Tasmanians continue to get the Nine programming they have enjoyed,” a spokeswoman said.
TDT boss Stephen Giles confirmed the negotiations were ongoing but declined to comment on what might fill his station’s schedule.
It’s believed TDT would be rebadged as Nine if an agreement were reached with its digital affiliates to be called 9GEM and 9GO!.
“We recognise the fee available for a single market is not what we would have previously received for a national affiliate agreement with WIN and so have approached the negotiations from that financial expectation,” the Nine spokeswoman said.
A host of TV’s mainstays could disappear while sports nuts would be without Nine’s flagships — international cricket, State of Origin and NRL.
The changes came about after Nine ditched WIN in favour of a deal with Southern Cross Austereo (SCA) in mainland states.
WIN then did a deal with Ten nationally, freezing Nine out of Tasmania.
Southern Cross’s agreement with Seven for Tasmania will run for another two years.
Its Tasmanian CEO Craig Davies said that could be extended further.
“It’s been the leading product for nearly 20 years,” Mr Davies said.
“It’s such a strong offering, particularly with AFL footy in a state like Tassie.”
The lack of a deal between TDT and Nine has meant few public announcements have been made alerting the public to the major changes.
WIN promotions for its new sports offerings may be confusing viewers but UTAS media lecturer Claire Konkes said they would soon adjust.
“When they want to watch MasterChef, they’re going to have to change the expectations of their remote control,” Dr Konkes said.
In other changes, WIN’s hour-long news could be replaced by Ten’s 5pm national bulletin to be followed by 30 minutes of locally produced news at 6pm.
The Sunday Tasmanian repeatedly asked WIN to confirm its news arrangements, and an announcement is expected to be made this week.
“WIN produces 16 half-hour news bulletins and an hour-long All Australia News bulletin each weeknight — no other network matches that,” CEO Andrew Lancaster said.
“Ten have been supportive of our desire to ensure regional Australia continues to have local regional news each weeknight.”
A trend towards cutting news services on regional channels, despite local content quotas, was a major concern, Dr Konkes said.
“It leaves the question for the commercial regional television stations of how many reporters they’ve got on the ground,” she said.
“When there is something like a flood or a natural disaster, something big, this is when people notice that they don’t have the news they thought they had.”
WIN and Nine are involved in a bitter legal stoush over internet streaming of content in regional areas.
But advertising revenue and a potential buyout of the powerful SCA network if media ownership laws change were more likely behind Nine’s ditching of WIN, Victoria University’s Marc C-Scott said.
“It’s just a massive shake-up and no one’s sure what the future is with television,” he said.
“It’s a really unsteady landscape at the moment.”
Experts agree Australia needs broadcasting laws that better reflect the rapidly changing digital environment.
The last major shake-up of Tasmanian television occurred in 1994, when Hobart-based Tas TV (now WIN) and Launceston-based Southern Cross both expanded statewide and affiliated with major networks.
They jointly created TDT, Australia’s first digital-only station, in 2004, ensuring Tasmanians could watch the three commercial networks.
Industry regulator the Australian Communications and Media Authority said affiliations were a matter for the networks.

Australian Capital Territory tally room abandoned due to ‘security concerns’
June 17 2016
Christopher Knaus
Electoral authorities say “security concerns” were behind a decision to abandon a tally room for the local ACT election in October.
The decision of the ABC to pull out of the tally room, and the decisions of others jurisdictions to abandon the concept also contributed to the decision, ACT Electoral Commissioner Phil Green told an estimates committee on Friday.
“The thing that most gave us cause to decide it wouldn’t be a sensible thing to do to have a tally room was the security situation,” he said.
“The fact that there are people now in Western countries now, who are targeted by people with guns and bombs.
“Holding a public thing like the tally room we think is a very serious risk.”

Son of killer Ian Turnbull ordered to pay millions for clearing land illegally

The son of Ian Turnbull, the octogenarian farmer who gunned down a NSW environment officer investigating him for illegal land clearing, has been ordered to carry out repairs worth $4.5 million to one of the family properties.
A Land and Environment Court judgment has found Grant Wesley Turnbull was responsible for illegally clearing 508ha of land over an 18-month period.
Some of the property, cleared.
It was these actions that led to his father committing murder.
Justice Malcolm Craig found Turnbull had not stopped his father from clearing land that was the subject of court orders on his property, Colorado, at Croppa Creek, about 60km north-east of Moree.
“The explanation for that latter work occurring and not being disclosed was that he had failed to provide his father with the appropriate plan and inform him that those areas should not be cleared,” Justice Craig said.

“What caused him (Grant Turnbull) to think that it was not necessary for him to disclose that fact at the time when the matter was before the Court is not explained.”
Outraged at what he regarded as officialdom’s ongoing intrusion into his family’s affairs, the older Turnbull shot and killed Office of Environment and Heritage officer Glen Turner on the road outside the property nearly two years ago.
Additional illegal land clearing was discovered by field officers, who used aerial photography and satellite imagery, less than a month after the killing.
“As a consequence of the clearing that occurred between January, 2013, and 31 July, 2014, significant environmental harm was occasioned. The acceptance by all four experts that remediation is required, satisfies me that an order for that work should be made,” Justice Craig said.
He said the illegal clearing “involved a breach that had significant consequences”, and caused the loss of local endangered ecological habitats, including feed trees known to have been used by a population of koala and likely habitat for the Grey-crowned Babbler.
Grant Turnbull purchased the property in January, 2012.
Almost immediately Ian Turnbull became involved in a long-running dispute with the Office of Environment and Heritage over illegal land clearing.
The elder Turnbull was initially charged with illegally clearing native vegetation by bulldozer on Grant Turnbull’s property and an adjacent property, Strathdoon, owned by his grandson Corey Turnbull. Grant and Corey Turnbull had invested $5 million to buy the two properties.
The dispute over illegal clearing on Colorado and Strathdoon culminated on July 29, 2014, when Glen Turner and a colleague, Robert Strange, went to inspect the properties.
Turnbull spotted them and, armed with a rifle he kept in his ute for shooting wild pigs and kangaroos, raised his weapon and repeatedly shot Glen Turner without uttering a word.
Last month, Turnbull was found guilty of murder after a five-week trial. Victims statements were heard this week and he is expected to be sentenced at a later date.
In a 28-page judgment, Justice Craig said because of several circumstances identified he couldn’t be satisfied that “without a restraining order in place, Mr Turnbull will adhere to the provisions of the Native Vegetation Act in conducting his farming activities on Colorado”.
Justice Craig found 508 hectares had been cleared on the property, as opposed to the 29.4 hectares Turnbull had conceded had been cleared in contravention of the Act
Turnbull did not deny clearing the land but challenged the extent of the clearing of native vegetation and the terms of the remedial order, during the proceedings.
The farmer argued the economic consequences of the remedial work was estimated at $3,948,000 over the next 15 years, while fencing off the area to be rehabilitated was estimated to cost $406,560.
He said the cost “would have significant ramifications for the viability of his farming activities” and would significantly diminish the value of his property.
Justice Craig rejected Mr Turnbull’s arguments that the remediation work would cause economic hardship.
“First, he advocated, supported by his experts, that rehabilitation should and would be undertaken in order to compensate for the clearing that he acknowledged to have been carried out in contravention of the NV Act,” Justice Craig said.
“Secondly, … no evidence was given by him as to the financial consequences of complying… I have no evidentiary basis upon which to determine that the cost of the remedial works in the applicant’s proposal is disproportionate to the cost of implementing
Justice Malcolm Craig also imposed a restraining order on Grant Turnbull to stop further clearing.Turnbull was ordered to pay cost.

John-Paul Langbroek sorry for ‘light-hearted’ hand gestures
June 17 2016
Amy Remeikis
The Queensland Parliament’s newest unicorn impersonator has apologised for his “light hearted” hand gestures which made headlines across Australia.
Member for Surfers Paradise John-Paul Langbroek apparently forgot about the Parliamentary cameras on Wednesday, and was captured demonstrating how to shake a sauce bottle, before indicating how one would polish a unicorn horn, on the footage.
While he made the gestures, following a warning from Peter Wellington to a fellow LNP MP about his own hand gestures – which although strictly G-rated, had captured the ire of the Speaker for their ability to rile up the government backbenchers.
Shortly after Mr Wellington said he could do without Member for Chatsworth Steve Minnikin’s provoking hand gestures, Mr Langbroek demonstrated his own ability to provoke, which proved much more effective, prompting Labor minister Kate Jones to rise in the chamber the following day.
“My concern is that the Member for Surfers Paradise immediately disregarded your ruling,” she said on Thursday.
“As such, I believe it is a reflection on the chair. The Member for Surfers Paradise should explain his actions and whether indeed they were directed at the Speaker or his own Opposition member.”
On Friday, Mr Wellington told Parliament in light of Mr Langbroek’s clarification and apology, no further action would be taken and he would not be referred to the Ethics Committee.
LNP leader Tim Nicholls has said he would remind Mr Langbroek of appropriate parliamentary standards.
While the actions rubbed the shine off the Opposition’s budget reply speech, it did make Mr Langbroek momentarily famous.
But after an appearance on his sister’s radio show, where she threatened to tell their parents, and a day of jokes within the chamber, Mr Langbroek decided to bring the matter to a head late Thursday night – and apologise.
“My gestures were a light-hearted exchange between MPs and not meant to reflect on your earlier ruling or any MP,” Mr Langbroek said.
“Please be assured of my respect for the Parliament and appropriate behaviour at all times.”
Parliament resumes on Friday, where the government, barring any more distractions, hopes to pass the budget.

Darwin’s Hidden Valley to host V8 night race in 2018
June 17, 2016 10:28pm
HIDDEN VALLEY will host a V8 Supercar night race on its way to being the second longest serving venue when the existing agreement is extended to 2030.
The NT Government and Supercars have agreed to renew the existing sanction agreement to 2030. Only the iconic Bathurst 1000 will have hosted more races.
The new agreement will be signed today making it the V8 Supercars’ longest Government relationship spanning three decades.
Darwin will host its first night race in 2018 and have a five-year exclusivity as part of the new agreement. It will be the first time in 21 years a night race has been held in Australia.
No costings are available on lighting the track. Any infrastructure may be temporary depending on an assessment to be completed.
Chief Minister Adam Giles said a night race would be irresistible for prime-time TV viewing and a massive injection for tourism. The event already attracts more than 44,000 local and interstate visitors over the three days of racing.
“Extending the existing sanction agreement is a clear indication of the strength of the event here in the Northern Territory,” he said. “Economic impact analysis conducted on the event has revealed an estimated $16 million in additional expenditure is injected into the Territory economy by the Supercars.
“The CrownBet Darwin Triple Crown Supercars has cemented its place as one of the premier rounds in the Supercars Championship, boosting the Territory’s reputation as a haven for motorsports and entertainment.”
CrownBet and the Northern Territory Government recently signed a three-year deal with a further option to extend, with the current sanction agreement expiring after the 2018 event.
Supercars Chief Executive James Warburton said Darwin was a popular venue for teams, drivers and fans.
“This fantastic announcement will ensure an enduring legacy for the Northern Territory as our longest Government relationship outside of the iconic Bathurst 1000,” he said. “It is such a special event for the Championship and a real favourite of the teams, drivers and fans and I want to thank the Chief Minister, the Board and team at Northern Territory Major Events Company for their vision and passion in making this event a true cornerstone of the calendar for the years to come.”

$15 million facelift for city laneway network
ADELAIDE
Friday
June 17, 2016
LOCAL
A network of city laneways and small streets wending from Adelaide Central Market to the Torrens will be rejuvenated with a $15 million overhaul.
The State Government today revealed its latest pre-budget sweetener, a bid to back its “city vibrancy” rhetoric with $7.3 million to be included in next month’s economic report.
That will be matched by the Adelaide City Council, whose members have been locked in secret talks related to a “City Infrastructure Development” over the past fortnight.
The project will include a new upgrade to Bank Street, after a previous attempt to rejuvenate the space with parklets became an own goal, with local traders complaining they were being used as toilets as much as dining areas.
It will also see Leigh Street, Topham Mall, Bentham Street and Pitt Street included in a holistic overhaul to create a pedestrian and cycling corridor through the city to the Riverbank and Adelaide Oval.
It will feature upgraded intersections, new paving, lighting, trees, landscaping, street furniture and public art.
The Government said procurement would be overseen by the Industry Participation Advocate “to ensure as much local content as possible is used”.
The council said consultation feedback suggested city users wanted more greenery, a focus on pedestrians, improved lighting and street art, while retaining the existing character and atmosphere of the city’s small streets.
“Investing in the public realm to create more welcoming spaces for people and encourage private investment is good for the city, and we’re delighted the State Government shares our vision,” said Lord Mayor Martin Haese in a statement.
“This project is all about upgrading the main small street spine stretching from the Market to Riverbank… [it] has the potential to realise up to $70 million in economic activity.”
Haese said 69 new small venues had already blossomed through the city since the “small bars” liquor licensing deregulation, and this project “will help build the momentum the city needs to continue to grow and encourage unique retailers and businesses to invest and thrive”.
The minister who oversaw that reform, City and Planning Minister John Rau, said the revitalisation “of Adelaide’s under-utilised small streets and laneways is energising the city”.
“Improvements to this important pedestrian link through the city will complement the Government’s changes to encourage more people to invest in our CBD,” he said.
He said the 2013 Small Venue Licence changes had generated around 800 jobs and $65 million worth of economic activity.
Design work on the project will begin immediately with feedback to be sought from local traders and residents.
Building is expected to start later this year.
Treasurer Tom Koutsantonis said there had been “an incredible transformation on Leigh Street and Peel Street over the past three years and we want that excitement and activity extended all the way from the Central Markets to the Riverbank”.
