SERIAL killer Ivan Milat's sister-in-law is running on a Senate ticket of
relaxing gun laws and claims the psychopath's horrendous crimes were water under the bridge.
Ms Milat who married the jailed serial killer's brother Walter, is one of 35 candidates running for the Liberty and Democracy Party - a party which supports nuclear power, lower taxes and euthanasia, and opposes criminalising victimless crime - in the federal election.
Ms Milat,
who lists target shooting as one of her hobbies, told Sydney's The Daily Telegraph newspaper that her brother-in-law's crimes were in the past and she was not concerned that her family associations may harm her chances at a seat in Parliament.
"Its not a problem at all," Ms Milat said. "It's in the past, it's water under the bridge.
"I am saying that it is irrelevant to my candidacy. It doesn't have any connection to it."
