Guilty murder plea in "Lake Angel" case

The mother of Dean Shillingsworth (the boy in the suitcase / Lake Angel) pleaded guilty yesterday to his murder. She will be sentenced on October 8. The Australian gives a detailed report on the background to the story : http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197,25950446-5006784,00.html

I'm interested to see that The Australian reports that they "obtained written permission to publish the identity of Dean Shillingsworth."

I blogged about this case in 2007:
