Stomping on the victim's head was a "chilling act of violence", a judge has said while resentencing rugby player Losi Filipo. In court, Justice David Collins had said the stomping on one victim's head was "a chilling act of violence that could easily have led to his death". Losi Filipo's lawyer, Noel Sainsbury, said outside court that Filipo would not be making a statement. "As I have stressed, however, Judge Davidson erred by not taking into account relevant matters. As a result, he under-assessed the gravity of Losi Filipo's offending."
