Lisa McCormack has trained as a hairdresser while behind bars.PHOTO: ROB KIDDA woman who attempted to carjack a nun while high on LSD has been refused parole again. McCormack’s aggression was starkly apparent in April 2019 after she consumed alcohol and LSD with friends. The Parole Board noted there was more violence in McCormack’s criminal history as well as theft, non-compliance with community-based sentences, burglaries and fraud. A psychologist assessed McCormack’s risk of reoffending as moderate to high and highlighted the fact she did not have a release proposal. "Ms McCormack understands that if she is partway through rehabilitation, a board is likely to wish her to complete it."
