One of South Australia’s most persistent and insidious pedophiles has been handed a landmark jail sentence for the depraved sexual exploitation of dozens of boys.

Jadd William Brooker, 41, was on Dec. 20 sentenced to 36 years in prison, including 29 years non-parole - the second-longest jail term for a crime of that nature in the state’s history.
