And that will be one of the reasons he will not be re-instated

This all reminds me of one of those ads you hear on the radio. "got a drunk driving, lost yer licence, too many demerit points.. Call me XXXX and I'll get ya back on the road."
Lawyers can obviously do anything.

Good point, I'm sure I'd get beaten outta my wits for failing to indicate or some other equally deserving infringement.

I've never actually been ticketed.

A fresh allegation surfaced tonight against one of the three men acquitted in an historic sex case at the High Court in Auckland yesterday.
A Bay of Plenty woman alleged on Tv One's Close Up programme that former policeman Brad Shipton forced her to perform oral sex one night in July, 1995. Donna Johnson also alleged that when she complained to police she was shown the door.

In 1996 she went to the Papamoa police and spoke to a constable.
"I told the officer that Brad Shipton had sexually violated me and was intimidating me," she said.
"Unfortunately a call came in. He asked me to have a seat in the waiting room."
She said another officer appeared in station foyer.
"He looked me in the eye, told me I was wasting their time, that I was making some pretty serious allegations and who's going to believe you? He indicated, there's the door, use it."

Meanwhile, former Police Association president Rob Moodie said tonight Mr Rickards' return to work depended on what proceedings, if any, the police commissioner planned to take against him.
The police need to make their position clear in view of the enormous amount of public interest in the case.
However, going back would be difficult after he (Mr Rickards) admitted that he had consensual group sex with Ms Nicholas, Mr Moodie, a lawyer, told Radio New Zealand.
"There will be those police officers who say `he's been tried, he's been acquitted, that's the end of it'.
"But there will also be – and there will be a considerable number of them – police officers who will not forgive him for what happened, whether he is acquitted or whatever.
"The difficulty for him. . .is in the Nicholas case the allegations were of group sex by mature males with a very young girl, and my understanding is the defence was one of consent.
"Now, most people would regard that as lewd behaviour. Certainly, police officers would regard it as entirely unacceptable behaviour in a police officer – particularly in a mature one," he said.

The man's a "cunt". Not a word that should be used lightly, unfortunately, it best describes all those that have defended him and his actions.

I don't give a fuck if he was acquitted or not, he's a cunt.

He's more like an ankle mate.

Lower.
Not nearly as attractive.
Nowhere near as edible.
And if it's anything like mine.....useless!

Did you catch the clip of him leaving the courtroom?

The bile that he spat..... "She's nothing but a filthy liar!"

I would've though that a 'man' that was hoping to be back in his 'job' would've said something more like...."I'm glad that the jury reached this decision, it's been a tough time for all involved. I'm sorry for the woman involved, I think it must simply be a case of mistaken idenity"

Actually mate....you're right. He's simply a CUNT.

I hope Bealzibub himself singles him out for a dry arse raping upon his arrival in hell.
