"It raises much more difficult broader issues such as that we have secular officials in a secular legal system making theological judgements," he said. Tasmanian Liberal senator Eric Abetz also weighed in on the case, saying he was of the view Christians should pay taxes.

An ambulance was not called until 10 hours after the incident and his family wants to know what went wrong. A tragedy which shouldn't happen again.
