Please be careful what you post in this thread as there is a current suppression order on this case from the County Court in Victoria.
The Age is saying they are unable to report on a conviction that occurred on Tuesday this week in a high profile case in Victoria:

Apparently the court has granted a suppression order as they don’t want media coverage to prejudice another trail involving the same person due to take place early next year.
I could understand there being a suppression order on proceedings while the first trial was still in progress, but given this person has now been convicted by a jury it is hard to see why their name should be suppressed IMO.
