Read the text messages one of Australia’s most vile child rapists shared with his new girlfriend before allegedly sneaking the woman into a notorious sex offender facility and taking a loved-up selfie with her
- Convicted paedophile was released to secure housing
- He allegedly broke supervision order by sneaking in woman
- Back behind bars, he will front court on March 10
The series of texts a notorious paedophile sent to his girlfriend before allegedly sneaking her into his secure housing precinct have been revealed.
Douglas Brian Jackway, 46, and another sex offender were sent back to jail after allegedly facilitating the woman’s entry on January 29, into Brisbane’s Wacol Correctional Centre – home to rapists and child sex predators.
Queensland Corrective Services obtained dozens of messages sent between Jackway and the unidentified woman following his release from the facility in 2020 after spending most of his life behind bars for sex crimes.
Those texts along with a selfie will be major evidence in the QCS case that he breached his 16-year dangerous prisoner supervision order by sneaking the woman into the facility, reports The Courier Mail.
In one of the messages she asks him what he is doing.
‘Kicking back baby thinking about you,’ he wrote.
‘I love you and I can’t stop thinking about today baby and you. Baby you are beautiful,’ he wrote in another.
‘I no (sic) babe,’ she responded.

The convicted pedophile was rated a ‘below moderate’ risk of reoffending when the courts granted supervised release to live within the Wacol precinct in 2020.
‘Members of the public are not permitted on the contingency housing precinct at any time, and a range of work is under way to strengthen security, including increased CCTV, a replacement security fence and increased patrols and random checks,’ corrective services said in a statement.
The breach has raised further concern after the December security overhaul, with Corrective Services Minister Mark Ryan insisting every effort was being made to protect the community.
‘There’ll be a full investigation… we are enhancing security at that precinct – initial and immediate action has already been taken to enhance security, additional patrols, additional surveillance, additional CCTV, additional lighting, perimeter security, all of those things have already been enhanced,’ the minister said on Wednesday.
The alleged breach is the second in just four months at the facility after a teenage girl was brought inside and sexually assaulted.
Jackway will now remain in custody until March 10 when he will face a contravention hearing relating to the alleged offence.
He is one of the state’s worst paedophiles convicted of the rape of a nine-year-old girl and assault of 10-year-old boy when he was a teenager
Jackway is one of Queensland’s most notorious sex predators, who has spent almost his entire adult life behind bars.
In 1991, a 14-year-old Jackway raped a nine-year-old girl and then in 1995 performed sexual acts on a 10-year-old boy, when he was only 18 years old.
Under the influence of alcohol and drugs, he took the boy into mangroves and performed sexual acts.
He was caught in the act and was subsequently sentenced to eight years behind bars before being released in 2003.
Jackway then returned to jail in 2004 after being charged with stealing a vehicle and while the matter was before the courts, he was also sentenced over the 1991 rape.
