Queensland Premier David Crisafulli has vowed to review the sentence handed down over the murder of beloved grandmother Vyleen White, after her teen killer was sentenced to just 16 years behind bars, something he won’t need to fully serve.

The teen, who was 16 years old when he violently stabbed the 70-year-old grandmother to death in a car park in front of her grandchild, could walk free in 2033 due to time already served and special conditions, including his age and guilty plea.

The murderer, who cannot be named due to legal reasons, was 16 when he killed White in February 2024.

Community outrage erupted after the teen’s sentencing, which was handed down under previous laws that were in place before “adult time for serious crime” was introduced in Queensland.
