True Story

Katherine Knight: Australia’s First Life-Imprisoned Woman

Mother…Wife…Neighbor…Murderer…Butcher…Frying pan enthusiast…possible cannibal…All of these things apply to the first woman in Australia ever to be sentenced to life without parole, Katherine Knight. Katherine was born in 1955 as the result of an affair between her mother and her married father. She witnessed rape and abuse all throughout her growing up years and it certainly left a mark on her psyche (her father allegedly attempted to rape her mother multiple times each day). She and her siblings were moved around to different family members to be raised, but nothing ever really stuck. Katherine was violent, cruel, and ruthless.

In 1973, after growing up in these horrific conditions, Katherine eventually met and married her co-worker David Kellett. Kellett

According to Fr Benigno Palilla of Sicily, demonic possessions have tripled in recent years and thus additional exorcism training is required.

The course will be offered to meet the need for more exorcists. Palilla cautions against attempting exorcisms without the proper training. ““A self-taught exorcist certainly will make mistakes. He needs a period of apprenticeship.” Fr Cesare Truqui, who is a veteran at
