TL;DR Summary

Terence Darrell Kelly, a 37-year-old man with a personality disorder who injected methamphetamine, has been sentenced to 13 years and six months in prison for abducting 4-year-old Cleo Smith from her family's campsite in Western Australia and keeping her for 18 days. Kelly "roughed her up a few times" and got angry at her when she was "getting bossy and asking for chocolate". He could have been sentenced to 20 years in prison but was shown leniency due to pleading guilty and suffering from "complex personality dysfunction" from a troubled childhood. Kelly will be eligible for parole after 11 years.
