A 19-year-old teen, just 17 when he allegedly stormed Avalon Airport with a shotgun, knives, and a fake bomb, narrowly stopped from hijacking a Jetstar flight with 170+ people aboard. His case won’t go to Children’s Court—too dangerous for a max 4-year sentence. Prosecutors say his political motives and research into airport shootings make this a serious threat. He’s charged with attempted hijacking and endangering an aircraft, and his defense claims mental impairment and hearing voices. Even if found not guilty, he could still be jailed for public safety. He’s been locked up since March 2025, and a jury trial in adult court looms. The court now weighs evidence to decide if he’ll face trial—and how long he’ll be behind bars.
