I have been told by an ex-prisoner who spent years in Goulburn Jail that the Cobby creatures are getting what they deserve. I cheered! RIP Anita- there IS such a thing as natural justice still alive in this country.

May Anita rest eternally in peace, and my God judge harshly her killers.

I wish I had seen these posts earlier. I posted three times to the Channel Nine Message boards on during the showing of this programme.

I was extremely disturbed by the repeated showing of clips of the events of the night. Particularly the partially clothed shots of the body double and laughing men. No renactment could ever possibly begin to touch the horror that Anita went through that night and the documentary makers were wrong to try and do that. Not least because whether we care to acknowledge it or not, some individuals who may have been watching would have found this footage provocative and arousing.

The simplicity and eloquence of Anita's father was far more powerful in describing the tragic loss of this young girl and my heartfelt sympathies go out to them if they are reading this. Against this the documentary makers attempts at the renactment were clumsy and misguided at best. At worst, inflammatory, insensitive and their motivation for including it so many times must be called into question.

I was appalled. I have never been moved to write about a television programme before but these supposedly talented documentary makers failed woefully in their duty of care.

I watched this episode last night... and although i remember vividly the events around Anita Coby murder it shook me.

I lived not far from Anita, although i didnt know her and i remember the anger at the time felt by all the residents. I remember being across the road from the police station when the crowd was yelling for the death penalty. Anger i will never forget.

After watching the episode last night i was extremely upset, i had read the book and it never had this affect on me. After finally falling asleep i had the worst nightmare... and at 1am woke up frozen in fear with tears flowing from my eyes.

I really didnt think i would be so affected so long after the event. I think her parents are very brave, no-one should ever have to go through what they did.

My thoughts are still with her family... and i think if i went thru what i did last night just by watching things about it...God only knows what they went thru because i can never imagine it.

Not sure if anyone will read this... but it has helped me, hopefully i will sleep better tonight.

This is a classic case where im sure most people would agree, the death penalty should be introduced. Its not an issue of waisting tax payers money but rather the simple question of why are we keeping these parasites full stop ?? How could they ever be trusted ?

To Anita's Parents and family - Please rest assured that you are in every loving Australian's thoughts and prayers. We feel only a fraction of your pain and we are here for you always.

SO SORRY ABOUT YOUR LOSS (TO HER PARENTS). IT'S SO SAD THAT THERE ARE MONSTERS LIKE THEM IN OUR WORLD...... THEIR TIME WILL COME.

Mr and Mrs Lynch,

My heart goes out to you.

I saw this on Crime and Investigation Australia i havnt heard about this until now i was just 8 years old girl at the time when this accident accure. I was shocked to see what has happened to a beauitful young woman. I used to always go out at night sometimes i never worried about any crime when i was younger it didnt worry at the time now i'm 30 i worry alot now then i was when i was younger. Anita was bright and wonderful beauitful person

It's bad enough that all of this happened to this innocent girl but what's really sick is Foxtel cashing in on her death with this cheap trashy program.

Hello Mr and Mrs Lynch, (if you're reading this), and others.

Firstly, I honestly believe Anita's light will "shine forever." I now live in Perth but Anita is still very much a part of my life, despite the fact that I never met her, or any member of her family.

I was 13 years old when this horrific crime was perpetrated. At the time I was in my first year at Blacktown Boys High School. I grew up in Blacktown, on the Kings Langley side.

I would continue but cannot....dear Anita...I'm so sorryh

i was watching that tv series about Anita Coby, and to see that happen to a young girl , it was really upsetting to know that a bunch of boys could do that .... my name is also Anita and im 17 and i always walk home from places late at night and my dad is always worried that i might never come home , but i just think he is silly for thinking that .... but from seeing that series i hardly ever walk home anymore
i wish Anita's family all the best in the future

Hi, just further on your comment to Eli, I thought the show was very toned down. I made the mistake of reading about the crime on a website and it went into explicit details which I am sorry to say, still stick with me (3 months after reading the story).I am glad that the perpetrators were caught so quickly, I am just sorry that it had to be a story at all, after reading about all the lost opportunities to catch them before it all happened. I an amazed at the strength of her parents and their dignity through it all. It must have been the hardest thing in the world to go to the courthouse everyday, and listen to all that happened. A lot of details are never revealed to the public, and knowing how much was revealed, it scares me to think how much more was done. I don't believe tv shows and movies are responsible for crime, people are. I have watched horror movies all my life, read crime stories (fiction and non fiction) and listen to heavy music. I certainly havent killed anyone nor am I likely to in the future...The story was well put together and it gave a chance for the parents to speak, If anything, maybe it will wake people up to be more observant. Someone always see's something.!

I was a small child at the time of Anita Coby's death and I didnt really know this story. I was shocked to my core that this horid crime happened and that anybody could inflict such pain on another human being. The Anita Coby story will stay with me forever and all I can say is thankgod the police were able to catch those animals as I hate to think what else they would have done to satisfy their blood lust.

Hmm....Don't think you should join the Police Force Eli!
It's about time the public know about the horrific details of rapes, sexual assaults, murders and cruelty to animals.
Police officers deal with these feral scumbags on a daily basis...
Believe me, it's no fun going into a house to find someone's head splattered all over a wall because someone is "drunk and on drugs"- or a child that has died from a sexual assault from someone who had a bad family upbringing.
Unfortunately, people who are depraved will come up with their own way of inflicting pain/damage on humans/animals.
We are constantly bombarded with images on war, politics, current affairs and forget about the victims.
Hopefully people will realise that this is why parents nag their kids about their whereabouts, walking home alone, and a host of other rules and regulations.

Wow! i think this is a horrid crime no matter how long ago and to see repeatedly the disgusting rape and bashing & knife gave me night mares, I could not stomach all of your show but sadly I'm angry the repeated scenes of this crime only empowered the perpetraitors after commercial breaks, the re-caps were unnesessary and inspirational for other wanna be criminals. I watch the crime files from the US on chanel 10 at 11pm and in no way does it show the crimes again & again. yes I woke up in the middle of the night and could not go back to sleep over that knife.
I will officially complain, it really needs to be toned down, there is many young people watching at 9.30. The level of violence was extreme & unacpetable for a normal viewer.

this story really upset me so much that i was crying so hard, i wanted to turn back time so i could go and help her and destroy them i wanted to be her angle and heale her with my hands and say your safe now.I would love to murder these men my self, iam a good and very kind person to everything i love animals but this kind of thing makes me evel to the evel.Evel like these monsters that admitted to the killing should be used for testing on for the scientest insted of animals locked up in tiny cages.
