A woman involved in the infamously grotesque slaughter of a transvestite has been given a new seven-year jail term that encompasses all her criminal offending.

Donna Lee Casagrande today wept in the dock of the Supreme Court as she was jailed for seven years and three days, with a four-year non-parole period.

That sentence serves as punishment for the crime spree upon which Casagrande embarked after serving 10 years for beheading and dismembering transvestite John “Joanne” Lillecrapp.
