Ashley Paul Griffith, Australia's worst paedophile, pleaded guilty to 307 child abuse charges, including 28 rapes, with most of his victims under five years old. Disturbing behaviors were reported by neighbors during his time living near a Brisbane primary school, including playing guitar for hours while children played in view. An independent inquiry into the systemic failures that allowed Griffith to offend for nearly two decades is being promised by Queensland's opposition leader, David Crisafulli, if elected. Prior complaints to police, including one involving a colleague witnessing Griffith over a sleeping girl, resulted in no action due to lack of evidence. Court records reveal that just days after being told he was losing his job at a daycare center, Griffith assaulted a new victim. His sentencing hearing is scheduled for November 28-29.
