Michael Guider had served 17 years for killing schoolgirl Samantha Knight, nine, and has now moved out his half-way house to a secret, undisclosed location
Michael Guider, 69, who kidnapped and killed Sydney schoolgirl Samantha Knight in 1986 and preyed upon other children across two decades, was released from prison in September last year.
Guider pleaded guilty in 2002 to the manslaughter of Samantha, who went missing after leaving her Bondi home for school on 19 August 1986.
But when he was sentenced for Samantha’s death, he was already imprisoned for numerous sex offences against more than a dozen other children between 1980 and 1996.
He was released from Long Bay jail in Malabar, Sydney, in September 2019 after the supreme court rejected a New South Wales government bid to keep him behind bars for another year.
