Outrage Down-Under After A Sudanese Gang Brutally Murder Teen And Take Selfies With His Corpse

MELBOURNE — A defenseless 16-year-old Aussie kid was chased down, stabbed 56 times, stomped into the pavement, and left to bleed out, then his killers came back for selfies with the corpse.

Now, four years later, the same nightmare suburb is mourning another innocent young man hacked to death in front of a terrified teen, and furious locals are pointing the finger squarely at Victoria’s soft-on-crime Labor government and its revolving-door bail laws.

Declan Cutler was walking home from a friend’s party in Reservoir in the early hours of March 13, 2022, when a stolen car full of eight teenagers screeched up beside him.

What happened next was pure evil.

The gang, some from Sudanese backgrounds, piled out and hunted the boy down like an animal. CCTV captured the horror: Declan on the ground, getting kicked, punched, and stabbed over and over as he begged for his life. He suffered 152 separate injuries — 56 stab wounds, 66 blunt-force traumas, and a sickening array of cuts and gashes.

But the monsters weren’t finished.

They allegedly returned to the scene, kept kicking his lifeless body, stole his shoes, and posed for selfies with their dead victim.

Four of the teens were eventually sentenced to between 17 and 19-and-a-half years for murder. A 14-year-old at the time got 15. The total? Barely 70 years between them.

For Declan’s shattered family, it was a sick joke.“Aussie kids are being slaughtered on our streets.”

Fast-forward to March 2026, and history repeated in the same northern Melbourne hotspot. Off-duty security guard Aidan Becker, 22, a “heart-of-gold” hero who had just finished his shift, stepped in to protect a 14-year-old boy being robbed and bashed by a gang at Mernda railway station.

Aidan, who had reportedly taken off his stab-proof vest, was chased and slashed with a machete. He died at the scene. Five teenagers, including a 16-year-old girl, now face charges.

Thousands have flooded the station with flowers and tears. Vigils have turned into angry rallies.
