Jason Roberts's armed robbery victim still haunted two decades on, court hears

Summary by Ground News

A woman who was robbed at gunpoint by a Melbourne man acquitted of murdering two police officers has told Victoria's Supreme Court she lives in a constant state of panic two decades later. Jason Roberts, 41, walked free from prison two months ago after he was found not guilty in a Supreme Court retrial of killing Victorian police officers Gary Silk and Rodney Miller. Roberts has always maintained he was not involved in the shooting of the police officers. He did plead guilty to 10 charges related to armed robberies which happened in the lead-up to those 1998 murders. Roberts will be sentenced for his role in those robberies on Monday.
