Bec Judd criticizes the Victorian government’s stance on crime as WAG says she is afraid ‘young people armed with machetes’ will invade her Bayside home.

Rebecca Judd has spoken out against the Victorian government over its handling of a spate of youth crimes plaguing Melbourne’s most affluent suburbs.

On Thursday, the Herald of the sun reported that 80 young repeat offenders had been arrested and released more than 10 times each over the past year, sparking fear among residents of the Bayside area of ​​Melbourne.

Rebecca, 41, who lives in a $7.3 million Brighton mansion with her AFL star husband Chris and their four children, was outraged by the update and quickly took to Instagram Stories to vent her frustration. .

‘Victoria Police are doing their job. The justice system and state government are not,” she declared, reposting a screenshot of the Herald Sun article.

The football WAG then directly attacked Victorian Prime Minister Jacinta Allan, accusing her of “staying silent while we wonder if a gang of young men armed with machetes will invade our homes while our children are sleeping”.

‘Lock up offenders on bail. Ban machetes and other weapons. There is a beginning,” he added.

This is not the first time Rebecca has spoken publicly about her concerns regarding the recent rise in youth crime affecting Victoria.

In June 2022, Rebecca made headlines for saying she felt “unsafe” in her mansion, after a series of home break-ins in her area.

Posting on Instagram, the WAG claimed the Victorian government did not “seem to care” about the “rapes, assaults and home invasions by gangs in Bayside”.

“I personally know two women who have suffered home invasions in Brighton in recent weeks while they were at home,” he said.

She also reposted CCTV footage of a group of youths lurking outside properties in her affluent suburb and claimed it made her feel “unsafe”.

The teenagers, who were allegedly armed with knives, were filmed loitering outside several properties in the Bayside area before crashing a stolen BMW into a tree.

In February the following year, Rebecca doubled down on her claim that Melbourne’s elite suburbs are under siege by criminals after a man’s luxury Mercedes was stolen with his dog still inside.

‘Same shit, different night. Yesterday the Queensland Government announced major changes to youth crime laws following community outrage. “It’s time for the Victorian government to do the same,” she wrote.

Most recently, Rebecca called on Allan to “fix the system” last month, following the alleged murder of Dr Ashley Gordon by two teenagers.

In a post on Instagram at the time, Rebecca said it was sad to see how broken the justice system had become and implored Allan to jail offenders.

‘This story is very sad. The justice system is broken. Fix this Jacinta Allan. “Let this be her legacy,” she wrote alongside a report on Dr. Gordon’s death.

“Until the ‘prevention first’ strategy starts to work among teens (it could take years. It may never work!), it is necessary to keep the community safe by locking up violent offenders.”
