A teenager who viciously attacked Aussie actress Virginia Gay just hours before he murdered a chef has been jailed for 12 years.
Gay, who starred in TV hospital drama All Saints, was walking along a street in Sydney when the 18 year old pounced, punching and kicking her as she cowered on the ground.
He eventually fled when Gay flagged down a passing car. She suffered head injuries in the June 2008 attack, which is thought to have been an attempted robbery.
The teenager, who cannot be named, went on to murder chef Daniel Owen later that day. He was also involved in a violent attack on a cyclist. He pleaded guilty to murder and two assaults at New South Wales Supreme Court, and was jailed for 12 years and nine months at a hearing this week (begs15Mar10).
His 16-year-old pal, who admitted murder and the attack on the cyclist, was jailed for 10 years and six months.
