‘The mother of a Melbourne girl who was raped and killed while out buying sugar says she can finally move on after her daughter's "monster" murderer was jailed for life, 33 years later.’
‘Outside court today, Kylie's mother, Julie Ryan, said she did not think she would live to see her daughter's killer sentenced.
"He's a monster, you can't call him anything else but that," she said.
"But you know what? It's all over now.
"My daughter and I can move on … we can all be together as one big happy family again."
Ms Ryan said she was pleased Davies was unlikely to ever be released.
"I'd like to kill him myself," she said.
"The things that he did to my daughter were disgusting."
She said Kylie was remembered as a "little princess" and a precious member of the family.’
Kylie Maybury's mother Julie Ryan (third from left) previously told the court of the family's anguish.
