Aresholes con a jury, part two

[Grahameeboy]

Where have you been lately? Have had another all expenses paid trip to the homeland again?

Wherever there are people with authority and power there will be abuse and corruption. Little old NZ is, as far as I'm concerned, is relatively well off in this regard.
The inquisitorial system just sounds too French for my liking.

I am pretty certain that, statisticaly NZ is the 2nd least corrupt Country in the world with Denmark being 1st...........

I think Lou's problem is that he is not sure which is his homeland.......he just needs time eh?

There's a copy of John Grisham's book, "A Time To Kill", sitting on the top step of the Police HQ in Wellington.

There are posters going up all over town, false Police Recruiting ones suggesting that if you join the Police you get to rape someone as a perk.

Don't be surprised if the next time you smart mouth a cop, you get the book thrown at you. 3 guys do not comprise an entire Police force.

You dicks.

What these people either can't or won't face up to is that the majority of todays serving cops were either small children or weren't even born in 1983, when these alleged incidents occurred.

The number of current cops who were serving at that time would probably only number in the hundreds.

Its just an opportunity for the great unwashed to put the boot in.

Yes but he defended it and got off I believe, he was the only cop for some distance and provided urgently needed assistance for the injured.
.

i think he pleaded guilty and was discharged without conviction. he still had to run the police kangaroo court gauntlett though.

You've obviously never worked in Rotorua then.

How can a 14 year old give CONSENT??

Must have missed something... what 14 year old? LN was 18, thislatest was the same age... 14 is statutory rape...

[Patrick]

You are cheerleading for rickards in everyway possible. Those juries did NOT get ALL the facts, what they got was a washed down version that would make the accused look good and the accuser the criminal. Im seeing what I KNOW!!!

ALL the facts being the convictions of the other two? Isn't that what this was all about? CR is absolutely guilty of rape only because the other two are serving time for it?

[Patrick]

...LN's history of laying 7 different rape charges against different people a little suspicious,

But if you choose to discount one persons history as evidence and concentrate on anothers as damning evidence then thats your "view"

Funny how this bit of her history was never mentioned and was suppressed... just like the history of the other two was suppressed...

How unfair?????

[ManDownUnder]

Not fair on the good cops though. But interesting anyway.

Step one - nail them for inappropriate use of the Police logo...

Yeah sounds to me like she was a cop groupie and liked a bit of legal action and when they told her she was a skank she went feral and started laying rape allegations!!!
The skank that cried wolf!!!!!
Very fishy!!!!!

[Patrick]

Yes but he defended it

No... pleaded guilty, the court dealt with it as they saw fit...

Cop groupies actually do occur....

[Guitana]

Cop groupies actually do occur....

INDYS also a sucker for a man in uniform!!!

[Scouse]

Oh yea got some Skeletan's lying around have we...?

[Patrick]

Not this fella...... but certainly could have had a lot of fun.... but who knows, 20 years later, that could come back to bite you perhaps???????

There was another LN allegation against a Murapara cop, I believe she was about that age at the time of that one. I understand that none of the current accused were alleged to be involved in that complaint.

Worth thinking about the situation if you guys have daughters and how you would feel if your 18yr old kid got involved in a romp, (particularly a non-consensual romp) with any older dude like Rickards - who I think has admitted to consensual sex with the 18yr old.?

And that is not an anti police comment - just an anti Rickards
