It is not what you know but who know and how much $$$ they have.....

And they say there is no class distinction in Australia.

'On the morning of this terrible event you were visiting your GP getting a referral to a psychologist,' Dad didn't pay his GP mate to back date the referral much?

How's this any different to every other person sentenced in Victoria? I don't think it matters who daddy is.... they all get out when they shouldn't, rich or poor.

Stating the obvious: good to have friends in high places.

No surprise

Money and mates talk

Daddy gets him off, probably in more ways than one.

Lords protect their own, plebs get sentenced

Two sons involved in a serious bashing, the father should be ashamed of his sons and make them take their punishment. If you do the crime then do the time.

Rich boy gets off, how surprising

In 10 years we will see one of these boys back in court for killing their wife with a baseball bat. Their dad will make an excuse they were playing baseball.

Have the Richmond footy club/ AFL banned this coward thug for life?

Fucking joke

justlawyerthings

I call bullshit.

No surprises here.

'You will feel the community's wrath': Bushfire looters sentenced to jail timeA man and woman who stole from a bushfire-affected shop in Batemans Bay to pay for drugs have been sentenced to at least six months behind bars. Move to China...Dickheads! There is something special waiting there for you! Only 6 months non parole? No where near enough time. Entirely appropriate. I did hear a whisper relating to the SA Country Fire Service, that a contingent of them had looted a guy's knife collection (licensed). That would have fetched a fair price, no doubt. All unofficial and deniable, of course.

If only we had saved $100m for helping tourism rather than sports rorts It's about time to reorganise our thinking - betting on China's huge market might not be sustainable with a totalitarium regime. Australia might end up loosing the country. Start developing local tourism attractions. Climate Change also encourages more land travels.
