On February 19, 2026, the ACT Supreme Court heard victim impact statements in the sentencing of Tayler Hazell, 32, who admitted to dangerous driving and hit-and-run charges after stealing a car from a childcare centre in Sutton, NSW, leaving an eight-year-old inside.
He drove recklessly across multiple jurisdictions, striking two teenage boys outside St Edmund's College in March 2025, critically injuring one and causing lasting physical and emotional harm to both.
Victims and families described severe medical consequences, prolonged hospital stays, lost education, and shattered futures, including the end of athletic dreams.
Hazell, previously disqualified from driving, was tracked via an AirTag.
His defence acknowledged the harm, and prosecutors urged a significant sentence to ensure public safety.
