He was making threats to kill, threats to assault, aggravated assault of a female, stalk of another person, behave in riotous manner in a public place.
Jacqui FelgateHOST
And then on Tuesday night, another woman in Ackland Street has been violently assaulted.
Jacqui FelgateHOST

Jacqui FelgateHOST
And so it got me thinking about St Kilda.
Jacqui FelgateHOST
And what a beautiful part of our city it used to be, especially Ackland Street.
Jacqui FelgateHOST
I remember being at uni.
Jacqui FelgateHOST
We would go down there on a Sunday.
Jacqui FelgateHOST

David HuntHOST
Tell us, what's it all about? Linda New Art, one of our favourite places here in Ackland Street, St Kilda.
David HuntHOST
So what's the concept? What's the idea? Because it's a real philosophy, isn't it, of what it's all about?
Natascha StellmachGUEST
Yeah, absolutely.
Mimi KwaGUEST
Oh, yes, so when I was, um, working at the ABC, uh, my dad came to...
Mimi KwaGUEST
I, I actually went back to the ABC after Channel Nine to read the news, and my dad came over because John and I were having our first child, and my dad visited, and I was walking along the street, Acland Street in St Kilda, with my dad and my little brothers, um, from my dad's second marriage, and I bumped into a colleague from the ABC, and this colleague just sort of was ke- was talking to me but kept looking rather curiously behind me, and I thought, "What's he looking at?"
