Alleged 'Pam the Bird' Graffiti Artist Denied Bail Over Public Safety Concerns

Jack Gibson-Burrell, accused of creating Melbourne's prolific graffiti tag, faces over 50 charges, including criminal damage and violent offenses.

Jack Gibson-Burrell, 21, was denied bail after a magistrate determined he posed a risk of reoffending to boost his social media following.
The graffiti, featuring a cartoon-like bird, has appeared on Melbourne landmarks, with damages estimated at over $200,000.
Gibson-Burrell faces allegations of dangerous activities, including abseiling buildings and committing violent acts during graffitiing.
Police are seeking assistance from the FBI to link Gibson-Burrell to an Instagram account with over 70,000 followers promoting the graffiti.
Co-accused Matthew Raoul White, 39, was granted bail under strict conditions due to lesser charges and no allegations of violence.
