Six people were killed at Benalla because...
Dick, I know someone who is very close to the people who died in that CFIT... and that person knows you. At the time of the event, I had no knowledge and, although requested to do so, provided no advice to that person other than to strongly advise them to source and read the full report upon completion of the ATSB investigation. They have not done so. Instead, they have listened to you.

It is normal for a person who is faced with the loss of people they love and respect to look for someone to blame for that loss, someone other than those whom they love and respect. In this case, the person seems to have focused the blame on, not just the controller on duty at the time of the incident, but all Air Traffic Controllers.
