The teenager who fatally stabbed a Brisbane grandmother to death in a shopping centre car park will spend less than a decade behind bars.

The offender, who was a major catalyst behind the Crisafulli government’s “Adult Crime, Adult Time” laws, was sentenced under Queensland’s earlier youth justice laws.
