Speaking about David's condition, his psychologist remarked, In all my years of working, I have not witnessed such excruciating suffering in a bereaved person. That pain only worsened when word got out that the defense team intended to discredit Davids evidence by claiming he had a phobia of being beaten up, which prompted him to run from the offenders, even though they showed no aggression.

In the words of the defense, Davids Account should be viewed with doubt, given he had been, quote, very distressed, depressed and hysterical. David believed that Whiteside and Deba genuinely went looking for a rapist, but after failing to find what they were looking for, they had to direct their anger and adrenaline somewhere.

He told author Steve Dow that when they spotted two obviously gay men, it gave them a target. This was a theory shared by others, including a senior Victorian judge who spoke to Steve Dow on the condition of anonymity.

He agreed with David Campbell that it had been a gay bashing and that Whiteside and Deba had then tried to, quote, white knight themselves as vigilantes, knowing they'd get a lesser penalty. The trial was scheduled to commence in June 2000, 14 months after the attack. All those involved hoped that the truth would come out in court.

But just days before the starting date, there was an unexpected announcement. John Whiteside and Christian Dieber had agreed to plead guilty to the lesser charge of manslaughter. While this would spare everyone a possibly lengthy trial, and the two defendants still faced a significant jail sentence, it also meant they wouldn't have to give evidence.

David Campbell was devastated, viewing the decision as, quote, an enormous breach of trust and a travesty of justice. At the sentencing hearing, the lead prosecutor said that it was reasonable for John Whiteside and Christian Dieber to believe Evgenia Sionis' claims of rape. But it was just as reasonable that Keith Hibbins and David Campbell believed they were being targeted by gay bashers.

The problem therein lied in the ferocity of the assault against Keith. The prosecutor put forward that the level of violence indicated a desire to punish Keith, saying that Whiteside and Adiba were overcome with a sense of righteousness. He therefore stated that the crime should be considered a serious example of manslaughter and punished accordingly.

At the time, the maximum amount for manslaughter was 20 years imprisonment. Die Berichterstatter für die Verteidigung zeigten, dass Evgenia Sionis eine wichtige Rolle in Keiths Tod gespielt hat, während er die Bedeutung von Whiteside und Diebers Verhältnissen nachgedacht hatte.
