Veitch sentenced

[Skyryder]

Apparently the sentence about the passport was removed from what was given to the judge.

Isnt that almost forgery?

Well it's unethical. Devoy is considering legal action.

It certainly is deceitful. Reading this article this morning, tells how much reliance was put on the testimonials by the judge.

In the Auckland District Court, Judge Doogue told Veitch: "Numerous references from prominent New Zealanders attesting to your good character is a testament to the fact that this single incident is very much out of character."

[FJRider]

A reference is a reference. Are they now saying he's an OK guy for this reason and not OK for that reason. If so say it in the reference. Sorry but if you are gullible enough to give someone a reference that embellishes someones standing, they can use it for whatever they like.

Otherwise state in the reference "for passport reasons only"

So what they are saying is its ok to be his friend, and give him a reference. But not want to publicly admit they are his friend, and have given him a reference.

Might tarnish their own reputation... eh !!!

Now for my 2 cents worth..........

He paid her compensation for her ill health. All she had to do was complain 3 years ago...thats right 3 years ago or keep her mouth shut.

I dont agree with what he did but how many times does he have to be punished......

Hope he gets back to the radio where he deserves to be.....

Once. There's no statute of limitations on crime in NZ. He assaulted someone and he's being punished for that. Once. Everything else is a sideshow.

He's been punished once. He paid hush money which didn't stick. Oh dear. It wasn't a contract that was in any way "legal".

The justifications for injuring another human being are getting lamer people. Try and keep the standards back up at "She's a woman and deserved it", OK?

Radio? He's had his turn at "celebrity". He should be made to live with his notoriety, being a convicted woman basher and all. For most violent criminals, a menial job is a major victory. He'll still manage to live the high life, irrespective of his reduced earning capacity.

It wouldn't surprise me to find a charge of "misleading with intent to perjure" on the books somewhere.

What a lovely thought.

No it is what the reference is used for that is the issue. Any other purpose becomes deciet.

Devoy has stated that her reference was for a passport application so that Veitch could apply for jobs. This is a completly different purpose than what Veitch used it for...........as a reference to convince the judge so that he may get a lighter sentance.

No he paid her compensation to keep her mouth shut.

And she did for three years..............to her credit. It was not until the story broke that she finaly spoke out.

This interview is an interesting read.

She says:

The agreement was that I not speak about the incident to media and I have stuck by that. Today [Thursday] after sentencing was the first time I have done an interview but I have not referred to that incident in any regard.

[boomer]

There's nothing in there about the 'alledged' affair, at the time, with the Vodafone CEO is there.. ahahah

Where did you hear that? Nothing on the news about it.

[James Deuce]

If it's a "joke", it's in poor taste.

Yep, agreed. Can't have been a very serious 'attempt' if he's at home with his father, and not in hospital.
