Introduction
1 This is a contravention application in respect of the respondent,
Jason James Paul Hoskin, pursuant to s 55 of the High Risk Serious
Offenders Act 2020 (WA) (Act).
2 As at the date of the application, the respondent was subject to a
five year supervision order, which commenced on 27 March 2024 (SO).
3 The State alleges the respondent has contravened the SO on a
number of occasions.
4 The matters I must decide are:
(1) whether, on the balance of probabilities, the respondent has
contravened, or is likely to contravene, the SO; and if so
(2) whether the SO should be rescinded and a continuing detention
order made, or whether the respondent should be permitted to
remain on the supervision order with or without amendment or
extension.
For the reasons which follow:
(1) I am satisfied that the respondent has contravened the SO; and
(2) I am satisfied that the SO can be amended in such a manner that
the community will be adequately protected against the
unacceptable risk that, if not subject to restriction, the
respondent will commit a serious offence; and
(3) I am satisfied, having regard to the amended conditions, that the
respondent will substantially comply with the standard
conditions of such an order.
5 Accordingly, the respondent will be released on an amended
supervision order, with the conditions as set out in Annexure A to these
reasons.
Background
6 The history of these proceedings and the circumstances in which
the respondent was found to be a high risk serious offender are set out

in detail in The State of Western Australia v Hoskin;1 The State of
Western Australia v Hoskin [No 2];2 and The State of Western
Australia v Hoskin [No 3].3 These reasons are to be read in
conjunction with the reasons in those decisions.
Procedural background
7 On 16 August 2023, the State made an application, in relation to
the respondent, for a restriction order under s 48 of the Act. Pending
the final determination of that application, the respondent was made the
subject of an interim supervision order pursuant to s 58(5) of the Act.4
8 After the hearing of the restriction order application on 21 March
2024, Strk J held that it was necessary to make a restriction order to
ensure adequate protection of the community against the unacceptable
risk that the respondent would commit a serious offence. Strk J
concluded that the SO was appropriate, and imposed conditions in
addition to those required by the Act, to guard against the risk that the
respondent posed to the community.5
9 The respondent was released on the SO on or about 27 March
2024.
10 Following the respondent's release on the SO, he was charged with
75 offences of contravening a requirement of the SO contrary to s 80(1)
of the Act, and seven offences of failing to comply with reporting
obligations contrary to s 63(1) of the Community Protection (Offender
Reporting) Act 2004 (WA) (CP(OR) Act).
11 On 2 October 2024, the respondent was convicted of these
82 offences on his own plea of guilty. He was sentenced to an
aggregate term of 8 months' imprisonment and was made eligible for
parole.6 Parole was refused, and the respondent's term of imprisonment
ended on 6 May 2025.7
12 Following the respondent's release on the SO on 6 May 2025, he
was charged with a further 13 offences of contravening a requirement
of the SO contrary to s 80(1) of the Act, and three offences of failing to

comply with reporting obligations contrary to s 63(1) of the CP(OR)
Act. On 24 June 2025, the respondent was arrested and remanded in
custody in relation to those charges.
13 The State made the contravention application on 4 August 2025.
On 7 August 2025, Strk J made orders for reports to be produced, and
ordered that the respondent be detained in custody until the final
determination of the application, pursuant to s 56(2)(b) of the Act.
14 On 16 September 2025, the respondent was convicted and
sentenced to a term of 10 months' imprisonment, backdated to 5 June
2025.8
Materials
15 The State produced a Book of Materials comprised of four
volumes, containing the criminal history of the respondent and detailed
evidence relating to it, including statements of material facts and
transcripts, the respondent's custodial history, program completion
reports relating to the various programs undertaken by the respondent
while in custody, parole and other assessment reports, and reports
prepared for this hearing, namely:
(1) Performance Reports of Ms Tracey Lilly dated 1 October 2025,
5 January 2026, 29 June 2026 and 9 July 2026;
(2) HRSO Treatment Progress Report of Chantal Spiccia dated
31 December 2025 and updated HRSO Treatment Progress
Report of Ms Spiccia dated 29 June 2026; and
(3) Psychiatric Report of Dr Gosia Wojnarowska dated
18 December 2025 and supplementary report dated 26 July
2026.
16 The State called the authors of these reports at the hearing of the
application, and they were cross-examined by the respondent's counsel.
17 The State also included in the Book of Materials the respondent's
custodial medical record,9 but at the hearing indicated it relied only on
the materials referred to by Dr Wojnarowska, being those contained in
Volume 4 of the Book of Materials.10

Statutory framework and legal principles
18 The objects of the Act are:
(a) to provide for the detention in custody or the supervision of
high risk serious offenders to ensure adequate protection of the
community and of victims of serious offences; and
(b) to provide for continuing control, care or treatment of high risk
serious offenders.11
19 The powers conferred by the Act are not to be exercised for the
purpose of imposing additional punishment on the offender, but rather
for the ultimate purpose of protecting the community.12
20 If a respondent is brought before the Supreme Court under a
warrant under s 51(3) of the Act, the State may make an application for
an order under s 55 of the Act.13
21 On such an application, if the court is satisfied on the balance of
probabilities that the offender has contravened, is contravening, or is
likely to contravene a condition of the supervision order, the court
must:14
(a) rescind the supervision order and make a continuing detention
order; or
(b) subject to s 29, make an order amending the conditions and/or
extending the period for which the offender is subject to the
supervision order or both; or
(c) except as provided in s 29, make an order affirming the
supervision order without amendment or extension.
22 A continuing detention order is an order that the offender be
detained in custody for an indefinite term for control, care or
treatment.15 A supervision order is an order that the offender, when not
in custody, is to be subject to stated conditions that the court considers
to be appropriate in accordance with s 30 of the Act.16

23 It is to be assumed that the respondent remains a high risk serious
offender; the court is not required to make the determination again.17
24 In deciding which order to make, the paramount consideration is
to be the need to ensure adequate protection of the community.18
25 The court cannot release an offender on a supervision order unless
satisfied, on the balance of probabilities, that the offender will
substantially comply with the standard conditions of the order, the onus
of establishing which is on the offender.19
26 Even if the court is satisfied that the offender will substantially
comply with the standard conditions of a supervision order, the court
must not release the offender unless satisfied that a supervision order
will ensure an adequate degree of protection to the community.20
27 The standard conditions of a supervision order are set out in s 30
of the Act and include the requirement that the offender not commit a
serious offence during the period of the order.21
28 In Director of Public Prosecutions for Western Australia v Hart,
Fiannaca J observed that, in determining whether an offender 'will
substantially comply with the standard conditions of the order':22
[t]he court must be satisfied that the respondent will comply with the
standard conditions in a manner and to an extent that is consistent with
and will enable the attainment of the general object of the supervision
order and the legislation, namely the adequate protection of the
community by management and mitigation of the risk that the
respondent will commit a serious … offence.
Alleged contraventions
29 The 75 offences of contravening the SO of which the respondent
was convicted on 2 October 2024 were committed between 11 March
2024 and 6 September 2024, and included conduct such as:
(1) accessing YouTube without approved supervision or
authorisation from his CCO, contrary to condition 36 of the SO;

(2) failing to notify his CCO of his possession of a PlayStation 5
within 48 hours of acquiring it, contrary to condition 36 of the
SO;
(3) frequent occasions (often on multiple occasions per day, with
each date attracting a separate charge) on which he accessed the
internet without approval from his CCO, including by
participating in online gaming chats, contrary to condition 36 of
the SO;
(4) failing to notify his CCO of his acquisition and possession of an
electronic storage device within 48 hours, contrary to
condition 43 of the SO;
(5) failing to notify his CCO of his acquisition and possession of a
new telecommunication device within 48 hours, contrary to
condition 43 of the SO;
(6) deleting data from his mobile device without authorisation from
his CCO, contrary to condition 46 of the SO; and
(7) being in possession of a pamphlet containing non-indecent
images of a baby and a 14-year-old girl, contrary to
condition 41 of the SO.23
30 The breaches of the CP(OR) Act were committed by failing to
report information, namely new accounts and application downloads, as
required to the Sex Offender Registry and the Serious Offender
Management Squad.24
31 While there was no allegation that any of the offending involved
access to indecent material or communications of a sexual nature, at
sentencing the respondent admitted, through his counsel, that he was
aware of the restrictions on his access to the internet but deliberately
went ahead with that access without seeking permission as required.25
The pre-sentence report was said to have suggested that the offending
reflected the respondent's continuing treatment needs in the areas of
impulsivity, poor consequential thinking, poor problem solving, poor
emotional management and a lack of realistic plans in relation to

preventing his reoffending, but also suggested a somewhat superficial
participation in his SO to that time.26
32 Following his release from custody on 6 May 2025, the respondent
was charged with a further 13 offences of contravening a requirement
of his SO and three further charges of failing to comply with his
reporting conditions under the CP(OR) Act. The offences were
committed between 12 May 2025 and 24 June 2025 and were based on
the following facts.27
33 On 12 May 2025, the respondent purchased a USB without
disclosing that purchase to his CCO or police, as required by
condition 42 of the SO.28
34 On 11 June 2025, the respondent purchased a mobile phone
without prior approval from his CCO as required by a lawful written
instruction and condition 4 of the SO.29
35 Between 25 May 2025 and 24 June 2025, without reasonable
excuse, the respondent:
(1) deleted or disguised data on his mobile phone;
(2) failed to maintain a daily diary as required by a lawful written
instruction and condition 33 of the SO;
(3) bought a smart television without advising his CCO or police;
(4) accessed the internet through the smart television and his
mobile phone;
(5) accessed pornographic material on the internet;
(6) created a Netflix profile;
(7) accessed (non-indecent) images of children on the internet;
(8) accessed YouTube on the smart television; and
(9) created an Outlook account, Netflix account, Gmail account and
YouTube account without disclosing this to his CCO or
police.30

36 The pornographic material accessed by the respondent was
searched for using phrases which will not be repeated here, but clearly
included searches for young people involved in sexual activity.31
37 The respondent also contravened the conditions of the SO on
numerous occasions, which did not result in a charge but did result in
non-compliance warnings being given to the respondent. These
contraventions included:32
(1) failing to accurately record movements in his diary;
(2) failing to maintain his GPS equipment;
(3) failing to comply with an instruction to notify his CCO
regarding rectification of a reported problem with his SIM card;
(4) failing to comply with an instruction to provide evidence of
disposal of a laptop; and
(5) failing to attend appointments with the Community Forensic
Mental Health Services (CFMHS).
38 The respondent was also reported to have engaged in a number of
'concerning behaviours' such as:33
(1) using public computers to minimise detection when creating
email addresses;
(2) failing to declare electronic devices and SIM cards;
(3) engaging in online chat rooms;
(4) accessing the internet without approval; and
(5) repeated loss or damage to phones and SIM cards.
Finding on the contravention application
39 On the basis of the convictions entered against the respondent, on
his own pleas of guilty, since his release on the SO, I am satisfied on
the balance of probabilities that the respondent has contravened a
condition of his SO on numerous occasions.

40 I am also satisfied that many of the contraventions involved
conduct of a kind which was identified by Dr Hall in the course of the
restriction order proceedings as conduct which would give rise to an
assessment of both increased risk of serious offending and increased
imminence of serious offending, when he said:
Warning signs that might signal that risk is increasing or imminent
include use of legal child images for masturbatory purposes and
increasing time spent online.
A potential shift in Mr Hoskin's offending behaviour could involve the
above scenario with activities undertaken on internet capable devices
acquired surreptitiously (such as a 'burner' phone) and connected via
third party Wi-Fi networks in an effort to avoid detection.34
Consequences of finding
41 Having so found, I must do one of three things, as provided by
s 55(1) of the Act:
(a) rescind the supervision order and make a continuing detention
order; or
(b) subject to s 29, make an order amending the conditions and/or
extending the period for which the offender is subject to the
supervision order or both; or
(c) except as provided in s 29, make an order affirming the
supervision order without amendment or extension.
42 I do not propose to repeat the comprehensive summary set out by
Strk J in Hoskin [No 2] in relation to the respondent's antecedents and
medical and psychiatric history. For the purposes of the contravention
application, I will only address additional relevant matters.
Conduct while in custody
43 The respondent did not incur any adverse incidents or charges
during his time in custody and was described as presenting with
appropriate prison conduct, being respectful to custodial staff and
engaging well with other prisoners.35

Psychiatric report of Dr Gosia Wojnarowska dated 18 December 2025
and supplementary report dated 26 July 2026 prepared in accordance
with s 74 of the Act
44 Dr Wojnarowska is a qualified expert within the meaning of the
Act.36 She prepared a report dated 18 December 202537 and a
supplementary report dated 26 July 2026.38 In preparation for her
reports, she interviewed the respondent twice and reviewed the first
three Volumes of the Book of Materials, the updated Treatment
Progress Report dated 29 June 2026, the Updated Performance Report
of 9 July 2026, and affidavits prepared for the contravention
proceedings.39
45 In August 2025, the respondent identified conflict with his mother,
pushing her, his weight loss, and his messy room as the circumstances
that led to his arrest for contravening his SO.40
46 The respondent denied looking at child exploitation material for
the last five years. He accepted that his diagnosis of paedophilia was
correct. He claimed he had never attempted to meet with a child in
person and appeared to Dr Wojnarowska to understand that this would
be seen as a major escalation in his offending. However, when
questioned on what would stop him from approaching a child, he
indicated only that he would not know what to say to them.41
47 Dr Wojnarowska reported that when questioned about his
treatment, the respondent remembered attending a sex offender
program and learning 'how not to offend', which he could not elaborate
on. Dr Wojnarowska observed him to have a limited insight into the
drivers or triggers of his deviant behaviour.42
48 Dr Wojnarowska reported that the respondent told her that he now
understood that online offending and child exploitation material 'are not
victimless crimes' but appeared to struggle to understand the damaging
effect of his behaviour on the child's development and their future
wellbeing. He said that his current sexual interest continued to include
prepubescent females aged between six and 11 years old. To
Dr Wojnarowska, the respondent appeared to accept that his sexual

deviance is an issue that he needs to address in therapy and that doing
so would reduce his risk of reoffending. He acknowledged that he was
likely to be imprisoned again in the future for contravening conditions
of his SO, but expressed the view that if he had a partner, he 'would not
need to look at CEM'.43
49 In his most recent interview, the respondent told Dr Wojnarowska
that he did not think he was at risk of reoffending, as, while subject to
his SO, he had gained more insight into and understanding of his risks
and behaviours.44 However, he then told her that his sexual drive
increased in the community as he had access to the internet, and felt
lonely and bored.45
50 In response to Dr Wojnarowska asking the respondent what his
schizophrenia diagnosis meant to him, he said that, when in the
community, 'the force of the universe' is against him, as he cannot gain
muscle despite training, cannot retain employment and has been
rejected by numerous women.46
51 The respondent informed Dr Wojnarowska that he did not believe
that either his schizophrenia or his autism was a factor in his
offending.47
52 The respondent told Dr Wojnarowska that he had been
experiencing chronic fatigue. He reported that, as a result, he spent
most of his time sitting and staring at the floor, was required to take a
break every ten seconds when writing and had been unable to engage in
regular muscle training.48 However, he attributed his inability to hold
down employment to anxiety, which often manifested itself as poor
body image, and his struggles with the requirements of his allocated
duties.49
53 When asked by Dr Wojnarowska about his goals for the future, the
respondent reported that he wished to live independently, complete a
business course at TAFE, and have his teeth corrected. However, he
reported that due to his 'chronic fatigue' he would be unable to work

and that he did not have any means to pay for the procedure to correct
his teeth.50
Diagnosis
54 In Dr Wojnarowska's opinion, the respondent has a complex
psychiatric presentation characterised by atypical symptoms and
multiple overlapping disorders. His adverse early childhood
experiences all compounded his undiagnosed Autism Spectrum
Disorder (ASD). Dr Wojnarowska considered it possible that the early
symptoms of schizophrenia emerged during the respondent's
adolescence, characterised by declining social and academic
functioning and emerging anxiety. He developed delusions and
experienced a period of undiagnosed and untreated psychosis for
16 - 17 years, progressing in his thirties.51
55 The respondent's longstanding sexual interest in prepubescent
children, specifically female children, and the extent to which he has
acted upon it, led Dr Wojnarowska to conclude that his diagnosis is
paedophilic disorder, non-exclusive type, sexually attracted to
females.52
Risk assessment tools
56 Dr Wojnarowska used the following tools to assess the risk that
the respondent would commit acts of sexual violence in the future, and
the steps which could be taken to minimise that risk.
Static-99R
57 The respondent received a score of 5, which placed him in the
Above Average Risk category for reoffending. Offenders in this
category have a predicted five-year recidivism rate of 21-24%, and a
ten-year rate of 32%-37%.
PCL-R
58 The respondent scored 14 on the PCL-R, meaning he does not
reach the threshold for psychopathy. Elevations were evident in the
factor 2 domains, namely a lack of long-term goals, impulsivity,

irresponsibility, poor behavioural control and revocation of conditional
release.53
RSVP
59 In the domain of sexual violence history, the risk factors of
chronicity of violence and escalation of sexual violence were present.
The risk factors of diversity of sexual violence and psychological
coercion in sexual violence were partially present.54
60 In the psychological domain, the factors which were present or
partially present were an extreme minimisation or denial of sexual
violence, attitudes that support or condone sexual violence, problems
with self-awareness and problems with stress or coping.55
61 As to the mental disorder domain, the risk factors present were
sexual deviance and major mental illness. In Dr Wojnarowska's view,
the presence of sexual deviance is the most relevant, as its presence is
strongly associated with the risk of sexual violence and is a causal
factor that predisposes a person to engage in sexual offending.56 The
factor of violent ideation was possibly present.57
62 In the domain of social adjustment, the risk factors of intimate
relationships and problems with employment were present. The risk
factor of non-intimate relationships was partially present.58
63 In terms of management, the risk factor of problems with
supervision was present, and the factors of problems with planning and
problems with treatment were partially present. Dr Wojnarowska noted
that the respondent's recent contraventions undermine the
improvements previously demonstrated in the psychological domains,
such as the respondent being less impulsive and able to self-reflect.59
64 The clinical analysis of risk factors as they relate specifically to
the respondent, as guided by the RSVP, caused Dr Wojnarowska to
conclude that the respondent's risk of reoffending in a sexual manner
continues to be high.60

Risk scenarios
65 The most likely risk scenario for reoffending would be the
repetition of prior offending, namely accessing child exploitation
material or participating in internet chatrooms to write about and
distribute such material, with likely reoffending within six months to
two years. Dr Wojnarowska opined that the warning signs that the risk
is increasing or imminent include the use of legal child images for
masturbatory purposes and increasing time spent online.61
66 According to Dr Wojnarowska, a potential escalation in the
respondent's behaviour may involve accessing child exploitation
material or distributing such material through online chatrooms using
internet-enabled devices that have been covertly acquired and
connected to third-party Wi-Fi networks for the purpose of avoiding
detection.62
67 She considered that there is a potential, albeit unlikely, scenario in
which the respondent escalates to direct contact offending against
children. However, given his limited social skills, any such offending
would likely require access to children who are both readily accessible
to him and predisposed to trust him. Dr Wojnarowska observed that the
respondent's very limited social network, together with his limited
capacity to develop future networks, significantly reduces the
likelihood of such offending occurring. In the event that direct contact
offending were to occur, she considered that the risk of escalation to
serious physical violence would remain low; however, the
psychological harm suffered by any victim would likely be severe.63
Assessment of Risk
68 Dr Wojnarowska was of the opinion that the respondent is a high
risk of serious sexual offending if not subject to a restriction order.64
69 Dr Wojnarowska recommended that the respondent receive
individual sex offender treatment with a psychologist from the Forensic
Psychological Intervention Team (FPIT) to address his criminogenic
needs, deficits associated with autism, and address emotional regulation

and social skills,65 as well as directing him to more appropriate sexual
outlets.66
70 Additionally, Dr Wojnarowska considered that the respondent
should engage with an occupational therapist, speech pathologist and
practical support in securing suitable employment or engaging in
meaningful and rewarding activities.67
71 Dr Wojnarowska noted that the respondent would have access to
32 hours per week of core supports during his first three months after
release.68
72 Dr Wojnarowska was of the view that, due to the respondent's
high levels of sexual preoccupation, anti-libidinal treatment should be
considered.69 In evidence at the hearing of the application, she said that
the respondent was a very good candidate for such treatment, because
of his sexual preoccupation and paedophilic interest. It would decrease
his libido and, she said, the research showed that it also decreased
sexual preoccupation.70 The medication could be prescribed to him at a
dose higher than previously, which would have an anti-libidinal effect
after two to four weeks.71
73 In evidence at the hearing of the application, Dr Wojnarowska
expressed the opinion that the combination of National Disability
Insurance Scheme (NDIS) supports and psychological counselling
would make his risk manageable,72 particularly if he commenced
anti-libidinal medication, as that would make him more open to
therapeutic intervention and the psychological effect of the intervention
would be more imminent.73
74 She recommended that effective monitoring of the respondent
should include vigilant oversight of his online activities, taking of
medications and adherence to the conditions of a restriction order, and
that disengagement from health services or supervision, entering a
relationship or obtaining employment would warrant reassessment.

75 In Dr Wojnarowska's view, the respondent's internet access should
be limited only to sites or platforms approved by his CCO, prohibiting
contact with children, and prohibiting the purchase of mobile phones or
internet-capable devices unless pre-approved. Further, she
recommended he have disclosure obligations and be limited to viewing
adult pornography in print form.74
Treatment Progress Report of Chantal Spiccia dated 31 December 2025
and Update dated 29 June 2026
76 Ms Spiccia, a Senior Counselling Psychologist, prepared a report
dated 31 December 2025 in relation to the respondent. By letter dated
29 June 2026, Ms Spiccia provided an updated Treatment Progress
Report.
77 In December 2023, the respondent commenced individual
intervention with Mr Summerton, a Senior Counselling Psychologist
with FPIT. Prior to the restriction order hearing in 2024, he attended
12 sessions, and after the hearing, he attended a further 25 individual
sessions.75
78 Ms Spiccia reported that Mr Summerton observed the respondent
to engage meaningfully in the intervention and, during its early stages,
demonstrate a reasonable degree of insight into his entrenched beliefs
and worldview. He further reported that he had begun addressing the
respondent's sexual deviance, but the respondent's progress had been
interrupted by his incarceration.76
79 The respondent presented to Ms Spiccia as polite and calm, with
his affect restricted in range and reactivity. Ms Spiccia noted that the
respondent did not offer information without being prompted and that
his answers to questions were very concrete.77
80 The respondent reported to Ms Spiccia that he was experiencing
limited side effects from his medication. He denied experiencing
auditory hallucinations or delusional beliefs for the past few years.78
81 The respondent told Ms Spiccia that, while subject to the SO, he
used the internet for online banking, accessing streaming services,
watching YouTube, and gaming. He stated that, for several hours a

day, he played a single game that he had purchased on a PlayStation 5
console and used online gaming chat functions to invite other players to
play against him and to socialise. He further reported that the
restrictions imposed on his internet use under the SO resulted in
feelings of boredom and expressed that he wished to cultivate
'alternative ways to live without the internet that's fulfilling'.79
82 The respondent reported to Ms Spiccia that he searched for and
watched adult pornography, and denied searching for or watching
pornography depicting children, homosexual or incestual acts. He also
denied watching a television series depicting children for sexual
gratification, instead explaining that he watched it to observe social
interactions.80
83 Ms Spiccia observed that the respondent believed his individual
intervention with Mr Summerton had assisted him to develop insight
into his upbringing, his atypical approach to dating women, and his
difficulties in forming and maintaining romantic relationships. He also
considered his capacity for employment and ways in which he could
increase his independence. The respondent further reported that the
intervention had encouraged him to better understand his offending
behaviour, identify high-risk situations, and develop risk management
strategies. However, he stated that he had not disclosed his
contravening behaviour to Mr Summerton because he was aware that it
would be reported to the Community Offender Monitoring Unit
(COMU).81
84 The respondent reported to Ms Spiccia that his sessions with
Mr Summerton have assisted him in understanding the perspective of
his index offending victims, and that he recognised now that chat hosts
must have been 'shocked' by the content of his messages. He told her
that considering the perspective of his victims would help him avoid
reoffending.
85 The respondent did not consider his contravention behaviours to
be high-risk situations because he had not accessed child exploitation
material.82
86 The respondent reflected that, when faced with setbacks such as a
delayed Centrelink payment, he experienced feelings of anger and

coped by using the internet as a means of escaping his problems and
emotions. He said that he planned to manage these risks by engaging in
pro-social activities, including strength training, volleyball, and other
sporting pursuits, spending time with family members, and
participating in outings with his NDIS support workers. In doing so, he
aims to reduce boredom, loneliness, and the amount of time he spends
in his bedroom, which he considered to be high-risk situations for
him.83
87 The respondent also acknowledged a sexual attraction to underage
females. He stated that, in an effort to reduce his risk of reoffending, he
intended to limit his use of the internet and instead obtain pornographic
magazines depicting adult women. He further explained that, if he
were to have incidental contact with children in the community, his
strategy would be to avoid interaction by moving away and presenting
himself as though he did not have such an attraction. The respondent
also indicated that he does not consider himself ready to enter into a
romantic relationship until he is living independently, and that he
expects to use online dating platforms should he seek a relationship in
the future.84
88 The respondent told Ms Spiccia that he hoped to obtain
independent accommodation through the NDIS and to undertake
correspondence studies in Information Technology, Business, or
Human Resources. He identified his mother, sister, and the Frankland
Centre as key sources of support if released into the community.
89 The respondent outlined a number of strategies to assist his
ongoing stability and rehabilitation, including maintaining a notebook,
using alarm reminders to ensure he keeps a daily diary, and
participating in pro-social activities. He claimed now to understand the
strictness of the SO and the consequences of non-compliance.85
90 In Ms Spiccia's opinion, the factors which contributed to the
respondent's contraventions included difficulties adjusting to the
conditions of his SO, impulsivity, poor coping and problem-solving
skills, boredom, loneliness, deviant sexual interests and sexual
preoccupation. His primary socialising and coping strategy was video
gaming. When this was no longer available, he was not able to
generate alternative strategies and returned to using sexual activity to

cope. However, he minimised the seriousness of his contravention
behaviours.86
91 Ms Spiccia observed that the respondent's concrete understanding
of risk factors, procedural approach to managing risk and relapse
prevention planning are products of his ASD and rigid thinking style.
She considered that this thinking style, together with longstanding
mental health difficulties, cognitive distortions that minimise and
justify his offending, sexual deviance, limited intrinsic motivation, and
a tendency to avoid personal responsibility when coping with stressors
contributed to difficulties in treatment responsivity. Nevertheless,
Ms Spiccia noted that the respondent's individual intervention with
Mr Summerton had begun to address offending-related risk factors, as
well as issues concerning his broader functioning and motivation for
behavioural change.87
92 Ms Spiccia considered that, if the respondent were made subject to
a Continuing Detention Order, he should be re-referred to FPIT to
continue engaging in individual intervention with Mr Summerton at a
later time, close to his review, noting that individual intervention in
custody would provide fewer opportunities for the respondent to apply
his developing insight and self-management skills.88
93 Ms Spiccia further recommended that, if the respondent remained
subject to detention, he be referred to Psychological Health Services to
assist him in managing any additional stressors associated with ongoing
detention. She also recommended that he continue to engage with his
NDIS-funded support worker to support the development of appropriate
leisure activities and to assist with any future transition into the
community.
94 Ms Spiccia considered that, if released on his SO, the respondent
should be re-referred to FPIT to continue individual intervention with
Mr Summerton, enabling him to further develop insight and
self-management strategies. The respondent would be assisted to better
manage and reduce feelings of boredom and loneliness, and should be
encouraged and supported to engage with his NDIS-funded support
workers in order to participate in appropriate pro-social hobbies and
activities.89

95 In her update, Ms Spiccia said that, if released on the SO, the
respondent would be on a waitlist to see Mr Summerton, and would be
prioritised, but no accurate time frame for resumption of psychological
intervention could be given.90 She confirmed that position in evidence
at the hearing of the application.91
Reports of Ms Tracy Lilly dated 27 September 2024, 22 November 2024,
1 October 2025, 5 January 2026, 29 June 2026 and 9 July 2026, and
Affidavit affirmed 4 August 2025
96 To the extent the content of Ms Lilly's reports and evidence
replicated information already referred to in the summaries of the
reports and evidence of Dr Wojnarowska, I accept it but do not repeat
it.
Respondent's performance on the SO
97 Ms Lilly is a Senior Community Corrections Officer for the
COMU, who was responsible for the case management of the
respondent.
98 Ms Lilly referred to the behaviours of concern exhibited by the
respondent, his conduct which attracted non-compliance warnings, and
his contraventions of the SO. Ms Lilly opined that these behaviours
were deliberate and deceptive, demonstrating the respondent's capacity
to conceal information to avoid monitoring and detection, and an
apparent inability to comply with his SO conditions related to his
internet use.92
99 Ms Lilly noted that, prior to his being made subject to an interim
detention order, the respondent was attending counselling with
Mr Summerton. She observed that, while the respondent was said to
have appeared willing to engage in discussions about his offending
behaviour, his continuing offending during the intervention period
'highlighted a significant inability to translate insight and understanding
into meaningful behavioural change'.93 She later noted that his
engagement during supervision sessions was superficial and that he was
not forthcoming or truthful.94

100 Ms Lilly also reported that the respondent was managed by the
CFMHS while in the community, and was prescribed a long-acting
antipsychotic and a daily antidepressant. He was medication compliant
but, as noted above, failed to attend appointments on three occasions in
May 2025 and, in that period, administration of his medication was
delayed. According to Ms Lilly, the respondent told Mr Summerton
that if he was not under supervision, he would come off his medication
because he did not believe he had schizophrenia.95
NDIS Support
101 The NDIS has approved funding for Core Supports and Capacity
Building Supports, including funding for Specialist Support
Coordination and Occupational Therapy for the respondent until
11 May 2027. This includes funding for support to assist the
respondent to engage in community, social, recreational or economic
activities.96
102 However, prior to his incarceration pending the outcome of the
contravention application, the respondent failed to engage with his
NDIS support providers and build community supports, despite
ongoing encouragement. He did not acknowledge the importance of
community support in reducing the potential for him to reoffend in a
serious manner.97 Further, his mother was noted to 'often make it
difficult for support workers to attend his home address'.98
Availability of Accommodation
103 Ms Lilly reported that the respondent's previous accommodation,
at his mother's house, did not support him in complying with his SO, as
his mother demonstrated limited awareness of his offending behaviour,
believed his SO to be excessive and was not supportive of his
reintegration into the community. Ms Lilly further reported that his
mother has exhibited hostility towards support staff, which resulted in
them attempting to arrange sessions outside of the home. However, the
respondent frequently cancelled those appointments.99
104 In discussions with Ms Lilly, the respondent acknowledged that
residing with his mother did not support him in complying with his
order conditions and agreed to work with his Specialist Support

Coordinator and Program Provider to source alternative
accommodation.100
105 Ms Lilly indicated that the respondent's NDIS supports have
sourced a single-occupancy property for the respondent and will hold it
vacant for four weeks from the date of the hearing.101 A Desktop
Spatial Analysis found no particular concerns with the property,102
although care will need to be taken as to the respondent's outlook from
the property to ensure he does not gain access to regular viewing or
access to children.103
Programs
106 The respondent has not been given the opportunity to participate in
any programs during his time in custody.
Respondent's attitude towards the SO
107 The respondent elected not to give evidence at the hearing of the
application. However, his counsel confirmed that the respondent's
instructions were to the effect that, while he did not wish to take
anti-libidinal medication, he would do so if it would mean he would be
released on his SO.104
108 While I do not consider it to be appropriate to make it a condition
of the supervision order that the respondent take medication to reduce
his risk, it is appropriate to recognise that if the respondent is willing to
take such medication, the court may have more confidence in the
manageability of his risk. In this case, there have been no significant
concerns to date about the respondent's taking medication as
recommended by his treating physicians.
109 The respondent also informed Ms Lilly that he now appreciated
the seriousness with which his internet access is regarded, and that the
consequence of future breaches is likely to be imprisonment. However,
the respondent apparently did not explain to Ms Lilly why he did not
come to this realisation after his first term of imprisonment, and he did
not give evidence about this or any other matter.

110 The respondent also told Ms Lilly that he intended to engage more
fully with his NDIS supports if released on his SO. Ms Lilly reported
that the respondent has expressed difficulty with his supports in the
past, but now recognised the need to access those supports to avoid
accessing the internet and the consequences which flow from doing
that.105
The risk that, if the offender were not subject to a restriction order, the
offender would commit a serious offence and the need to protect
members of the community from that risk
111 It is not necessary for the purposes of this application that I be
satisfied that the respondent is a high risk serious offender. However, I
am positively satisfied, on all of the evidence, including the previous
reports and evidence of Dr Hall and Dr Bannister for the restriction
order hearing, the evidence of Dr Wojnarowska on the contravention
application, and the evidence of the contraventions and other conduct of
the respondent while subject to the SO, that the respondent remains a
high risk of committing a serious offence if not subject to restriction
and that there is no means of adequately protecting the community than
a restriction order under the Act.
Should the Supervision Order be rescinded, affirmed, amended or
extended?
112 In deciding which order to make under s 55(1) of the Act, the
paramount consideration is the need to ensure adequate protection of
the community.
113 Before determining that the SO should not be rescinded, I must be
satisfied that it will adequately protect the community against the
unacceptable risk that the respondent will commit a serious offence. I
must also be satisfied that the respondent will substantially comply with
the standard conditions of the order.
Will the SO adequately protect the community against the unacceptable
risk that the respondent will commit a serious offence?
114 In Dr Wojnarowska's opinion, the combination of psychological
intervention and NDIS supports as presently anticipated will be
sufficient to manage the risk that the respondent will commit a serious
offence if released on his SO. The manageability of the respondent's
risk will be enhanced over time if the respondent is prepared to take
105 ts 126.
-- 25 of 37 --
[2026] WASC 346
FORRESTER J
Page 26
anti-libidinal medication, because it will reduce his sexual
pre-occupation, making him more open to therapeutic intervention, and,
in all likelihood, making treatment progress more rapid.
115 The protection of the community is not achieved simply by
incarcerating individuals, although, plainly, sometimes that will be
necessary. Protection of the community may also involve teaching an
offender the skills, strategies and tools which enable them to progress
to living in the community in a prosocial manner, and ultimately in an
offence-free manner.
116 The respondent's present incarceration has seen him receive no
treatment for a considerable period. Accordingly, the gains he had
previously made are likely to have been lost, and there is little to no
prospect of him making any treatment gains while he remains in
custody. If he is released on his SO, he is likely to resume treatment
with Dr Summerton, and receive significant support to develop an
independent and prosocial life, all of which will contribute to his
rehabilitation.
117 I do accept that the change in accommodation arrangements for
the respondent is a significant difference in circumstances, and that the
respondent is likely to be able to engage more meaningfully with his
NDIS supports and to be less confined to his bedroom when he is no
longer living with his mother. However, it is also relevant to note that,
while important to give the respondent independence and structure and
occupy his time developing skills which will assist him in the future,
living on his own will also give the respondent a greater degree of
freedom in his home which will potentially enable him to engage in
risk-increasing conduct with less prospect of immediate detection.
118 Ultimately, however, I am satisfied that it is not necessary to
rescind the SO in order to adequately protect the community against the
risk that the respondent will commit a serious offence. I am satisfied
that his risk can be effectively managed in the community, with
appropriate conditions.
Has the respondent satisfied the court on the balance of probabilities that
he will substantially comply with the standard conditions?
119 Notwithstanding that I am satisfied that the respondent can be
adequately managed in the community on the SO, I must not release
him on the SO unless I am satisfied on the balance of probabilities that
-- 26 of 37 --
[2026] WASC 346
FORRESTER J
Page 27
he will substantially comply with the standard conditions, the onus of
proving which lies on him.
120 The performance of the respondent on his SO to date does not
inspire confidence in his ability or willingness to comply with the
conditions of his SO. He chose not to give evidence about the issue.
121 One of the standard conditions of the SO is not to commit a
serious offence. Ultimately, the very purpose of a restriction order
under the Act is to protect the community against the risk that the
respondent will commit a serious offence. So far, the SO has achieved
that aim. The respondent has not committed a serious offence. Further,
the conditions of the SO have meant that conduct which signified an
elevated risk of such offending has been readily detected and dealt
with.
122 However, a further standard condition of the SO is to comply with
the lawful directions of a CCO. The respondent's contraventions
involved a number of breaches of this standard condition.
123 The respondent has now been in custody since October 2024,
except for a period of about six weeks in May and June 2025. He now
claims to more fully appreciate the gravity of accessing the internet in
breach of his SO.
124 I am prepared to take into account that the respondent's ASD, in
particular, means that fully grasping the consequences of
contraventions such as accessing the internet, even for innocent
purposes, has been more challenging for the respondent. In particular,
he has found it difficult to understand why accessing the internet is
linked to an increased risk of serious offending. His mother has not
assisted in this, in that she has failed to acknowledge the seriousness of
the respondent's conduct and the need for the onerous conditions to
which he has been made subject.
125 However, the respondent has not at any time been ignorant of the
fact that those contraventions would have consequences. He has been
deliberately dishonest about his conduct when engaging in supervision
and counselling, seeking to avoid those consequences.
126 Notwithstanding these concerns, I have had regard to all of the
adjustments which have been made to attempt to deal with the
difficulties experienced by the respondent in complying with his SO,
and the circumstances under which he will be released, including
-- 27 of 37 --
[2026] WASC 346
FORRESTER J
Page 28
independent accommodation and intensive counselling and supports, as
well as anti-libidinal medication (if he consents). In those
circumstances, I am prepared to find, on the balance of probabilities,
that the respondent will substantially comply with the standard
conditions of the SO.
127 The respondent is fully capable of understanding that future
breaches of his SO are less likely to be tolerated than they have in the
past and that they are likely to attract further terms of imprisonment.
Having assured the court that he does now understand that, and that he
will engage with the intervention and supports on offer, it is now
incumbent on the respondent to demonstrate that he can and will
comply. Failure to do so may well result in future assurances of
intended compliance being insufficient to satisfy the requirement of
s 29 of the Act.
Conditions and duration of order
128 The SO will be amended to reflect the respondent's new address,
and the recommendation of Dr Wojnarowska regarding access to print
form adult pornography. The conditions of the order will be as set out
in Annexure A to these reasons.
