Melba Lott's brother said in an interview:

"It didn't get any easier,...But I knew I had to be there and tell the jury about my sister. About who she really was....Bruce Hughes got the most time, which he deserved. Stanford Harvey could have gotten more time, but at least he's locked up. And Amanda is paying, too, for her part,...Drugs are destroying people's lives and their families. Dope is bad in Victoria."
