http://tinyurl.com/krh3d5 A 21-year-old ringleader in the fatal bashing of a university researcher in Melbourne has been jailed for 15 years. Lone pedestrian Dr Cao Zhongjun, 41, died of horrific head injuries after being set upon by a gang led by John Caratozzolo in Footscray. The Supreme Court heard that Caratozzolo, of Melton South, had set out to rob someone of their mobile phone in January last year. Justice David Harper said Caratozzolo and his six associates surrounded Dr Cao and bashed him in a terrifying attack. Caratozzolo landed a final vicious kick to his head then ran away laughing, he said. Justice Harper said that after leaving Dr Cao dying on the footpath, Caratozzolo led another vicious assault on an Indian man later that night. The judge said there was an element of racism in the cowardly attacks. Justice Harper said Caratozzolo not only murdered Dr Cao but ruined the lives of his wife and daughter. "You must confront the evil consequences of what you did," the judge said. Caratozzolo was jailed for a minimum of 10 years. He pleaded guilty to murder and two counts of robbery. -- 墨爾本的朋友出門當心點.... -- Take my hand, You have to give me a chance. I looked around and feel this time I can't pretend. You're so light, I'll make you fly through this night. I can't keep on believe that you are all over my mind. --
