Neo-Nazis walk free from court, spared further jail time over attack on Victorian hikers

In short: Neo-Nazis Thomas Sewell and Jacob Hersant have avoided further jail time after they were convicted of a 2021 attack on hikers at a Victorian state park. County Court Judge Kellie Blair wished the pair luck and said she believed the prospects of both men being rehabilitated were good. Sewell and Hersant maintained their innocence after the hearing and made anti-Semitic and homophobic comments to gathered media. What's next? Hersant must complete 200 hours of community service as part of his sentencing.
