'Mummy didn't get up': Push to jail ISIS sympathiser who murdered his wife in front of their three children and gouged out her eyes after she 'didn't approve of his jihadist agenda'
By Australian Associated Press

‘Prosecutor Sharn Coombes said the couple's children - aged two, four and six at the time - saw their father repeatedly attack their mother with a knife.
'The accused set upon a prolonged and vicious attack on his wife, murdering her in front of their three children,' she told the court.
'The two oldest children described their father having 'slaughtered' their mother in front of them.'
An autopsy revealed the 27-year-old woman died of blood loss, with multiple wounds to her face and genitals, a gouged-out right eye, and two amputated fingers.
Two of the children told authorities they saw their father flush their mother's eye down the toilet.
The man later took his three young children with him to dump the body and afterwards ate pastries at a bakery.
'He closed the boot, then he sat on the boot to see if mum got up,' the boy told authorities.
'Mummy didn't get up.'‘
‘The pre-sentence hearing will resume on Wednesday [6 December 2017].’

These men do not want to join Isis for any religious or political reasons, they are enthralled by the gratuitous violence that Isis allows and encourages them to practice.

Jihadi or psychotic? Prosecutor, psychiatrist disagree over wife-killer's motive

‘A psychiatrist says a man who murdered and mutilated his wife in front of their children was psychotic at the time but prosecutors believe he was motivated by his radical Islamic beliefs.’
‘Prosecutor Sharn Coombes said the murder was motivated by the killer's religious beliefs and radicalisation, including his desire to be a jihadist.
"Here is a man acting within his own belief system and that's all there is," she said.
But forensic psychiatrist Leon Turnbull disagreed.
"I don't accept that. My assessment is he was psychotic," he told the court.
Dr Turnbull said the man was in a drug-induced psychosis, caused by long-term use of the drug ice, when he killed his wife.
"At the time of the offending, at the apex of his psychotic belief was his belief that his wife was a monster that had been sent to kill him from God," he said.
Ms Coombes said Dr Turnbull's assessment was relying on the man's account about his ice use.
But when the man was questioned by police about the murder and asked if he had been using ice, he did not mention anything about drug use, the prosecutor said.
"There was nothing obviously psychotic in the police interview," Ms Coombes said.
The man also managed to dump his wife's body, clean up her blood, and buy pastries for his children in the period Dr Turnbull believes he was psychotic.
"That doesn't really indicate that he was in a psychosis at the time," the prosecutor said.’
