The 51-year-old was released from prison last month and subjected to an interim supervision order with conditions including restricted use of the internet. There was public outrage when it was revealed Wilmot would receive taxpayer-funded support through the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) when he got out of jail. That support included a total of 24 hours’ assistance each week to improve his ‘daily life’ as well as ‘social, economic and community participation’. Two weeks after he walked free Wilmot was charged with searching for and viewing explicit child abuse material, in breach of his interim supervision order. On Tuesday, Wilmot appeared via audio-visual link in Waverley Local Court where he pleaded guilty to failing to comply with the order and was sentenced. The court was told Wilmot breached the condition restricting his internet use by searching for violent pornography, including ‘extreme’ material involving underage women. A serial sex offender caught viewing extreme pornography, breaching the terms of his release, says his latest 18-month prison sentence is too long. Wayne Wilmot is pictured after his arrest over the September 1988 rape and murder of Janine Balding According to documents tendered in court, Wilmot searched for group sex material involving 16 men and one woman and repeatedly requested violent and extreme pornography involving minors. His lawyer Dev Bhutani asked magistrate Jacqueline Milledge to consider imposing a sentence in the vicinity of six months but she jailed him for a fixed 18-month term. ‘Since the age of 15, he’s been in custody almost continuously,’ Mr Bhutani had said. Ms Milledge: ‘[From] what I’ve read about his history, that’s where he belongs’. Later that day, Wilmot lodged an appeal against the severity of the sentence which will be heard in the District Court. Mr Bhutani had argued a ‘short sharp term of imprisonment’ would deter his client from breaching the supervision order again. Ms Milledge noted Wilmot had sought to access ‘significantly hardcore porn sites… involving gang sexual activity’ by searching terms such as ‘very very extreme hard f*** porn videos’. ‘This is very very concerning,’ she said. ‘It’s not like he’s just gone onto a dating site or anything like that.’ Wayne Wilmot was 15 when he and a group of four others aged 14, 15, 16 and 22 travelled to Sutherland train station in Sydney’s south and abducted Janine Balding (above) at knifepoint Police prosecutor Nicole McMahon said the breach was ‘extremely serious’ given the violent nature of the material and Wilmot’s history of ‘extreme violence and sexual offending’. She noted he had not shown any remorse for his actions and argued the ‘real and extreme high risk’ of Wilmot reoffending ‘could not be mitigated at all by any alternative’. Sergeant McMahon pushed for the serial rapist to be jailed for two years over the breach. ‘The longer Mr Wilmot is detained the longer the community at large will be protected,’ she McMahon said. ‘It would be the ultimate deterrent.’ Ms Milledge agreed Wilmot’s lengthy criminal record was ‘quite concerning, if not frightening’. Earlier this year, Supreme Court Justice Helen Wilson described Wilmot as having a ‘disturbing history of sexual offending which he continues to deny or minimise’. Wayne Wilmot, 51, has been charged with breaching his supervision order by viewing pornographic material Wilmot was 15 when he and a group of four others aged 14, 15, 16 and 22 travelled to Sutherland train station in Sydney’s south and abducted Ms Balding at knifepoint. The 20-year-old was forced into a car driven by Wilmot and raped in the back seat before being driven to an isolated area of Sydney’s west, where she was again sexually assaulted. Wilmot and the other 15-year-old – an intellectually disabled girl – did not actively participate when Ms Balding was dragged to a dam and drowned. Justice Peter Newman, who sentenced the group, accepted Wilmot ‘knew nothing of their decision to kill her afterwards’ and was not involved in the murder. He determined Wilmot had not raped Ms Balding but was guilty due to his involvement in the joint criminal enterprise. Wilmot was jailed for nine years and four months over a raft of offences, including sexual intercourse without consent, detain with intent to gain advantage, and robbery in company. He was released on parole in October 1996 but subsequently committed violent and sexual assaults against women. Wilmot is set to appear in the Downing Centre District Court on September 18.
