Certainly is (and not so amazing). Standard AFL practice for these sorts of matters I would have thought. It’s crucial the trial is not moved to the Family Court so that the grubby charade can be fully exposed for what it is. That’s what the wife wants.
I assume you’ve seen Michael Warner’s coverage in the HS. He’s gone straight to the cover-up/corruption angle. Unsurprisingly The Age has chosen not to highlight this aspect.
Can say from working with offenders for nearly two decades that if got 5 cents for every time a man has attempted to deny, minimise or shift responsibility for his own actions by blaming so called mental health issues on a current or ex partner I’d never need to work again
The court case has broken up the family. Two of the daughters have sided with the dad in a public announcement on one of the social media channels. Its far from a happy family!
Finally, as I previously posted before this should never have made it to court. An average citizen would not be taking this to the Supreme Court.
