Police Commissioner Col Blanch says he desires Cleo Smith “to develop up as a cheerful lady who meets her goals in her life”, admitting as a father he might by no means forgive her kidnapper’s “evil” crime.
Mr Blanch delivered a robust assertion exterior WA Police headquarters after Terence Darrell Kelly was sentenced on Wednesday to 13 years and 6 months for kidnapping the four-year-old from her household’s tent on the Blowholes campsite close to Carnarvon in October 2021.
