At the Victorian Supreme Court, Joshua gave a harrowing account of watching his father scream as he burned, calling it a memory that haunts him daily. The court heard that Lee has a personality disorder and showed no remorse, believing his actions were justified. However, psychiatrists confirmed he was not psychotic at the time. Judge Andrew Tinney is now considering a life sentence, calling the murder "horrific" and "senseless."
