Ashley Paul Griffith appeals sentence for sexually assaulting children

Former childcare worker Ashley Paul Griffith appealed his life sentence Thursday for raping and sexually assaulting dozens of children at Brisbane early learning centres. His lawyer argued his 27-year non-parole period was manifestly excessive, nearly double the statutory 15 years. Griffith pleaded guilty to over 300 charges involving 69 young girls; the appeal decision was reserved.
