A reckless and selfish Tasmanian man who toured around Western Australia in a blatant breach of the state s tough COVID laws will spend another month behind bars after being given a partially suspended six-month jail term.
Kyle Rix Stephens, 32, was arrested about 1,000 kilometres north of Perth despite being told two days earlier, when he arrived at Perth airport, that he did not have permission to enter the state.
Stephens had travelled from Tasmania on July 1, on a flight that transited through Sydney which was a COVID hotspot.
