True Crime: One man’s sick obsession that led to brutal stabbing death | 60 Minutes Australia

The fight to ensure the man who stalked and murdered 23-year-old Celeste Manno is never released from prison has been devastating and frustrating. ► WATCH Full Episodes on 9NOW: ► Subscribe here: *Synopsis | Fatal Obsession (2024)* Celeste Manno was a smart and beautiful young Australian. Five years ago, her future was as bright as her personality. But then a man she’d very briefly worked with became obsessed with her. It was attention Celeste neither wanted nor reciprocated. That didn’t stop Luay Sako though. For more than a year, the then 35-year-old stalked her, making her life miserable. Celeste tried everything to stop him, without success. In November 2020, he broke into her home in the middle of the night and murdered Celeste, who was then 23, while she was sleeping. Last week Sako was sentenced to 36 years in prison for his horrendous crime. But it’s a punishment that’s nowhere near satisfactory for Celeste’s mother. In an exclusive interview with 60 MINUTES and The Age, Aggie Di Mauro tells Dimity Clancey how the criminal justice system let down her daughter, and why Luay Sako must never be released. *MORE VIDEOS like this one* ► ► ► FOLLOW 60 Minutes Australia ► WATCH more of 60 Minutes Australia: ► Facebook: ► Twitter: ► Instagram: ABOUT 60 Minutes Australia For over forty years, 60 Minutes Australia have been telling Australians the world’s greatest stories.
