Defendant in Posie Parker assault case discharged without conviction, name suppression granted – FSU to appeal

Posie Parker assault case news

The young man who assaulted an elderly woman at the Posie Parker event in Albert Park last year has been discharged without conviction, with permanent name suppression granted.

“This is not justice. The Courts should not silence Kiwis’ from speaking about crime committed against them”, says Jonathan Ayling, Chief Executive of the Free Speech Union.

“Little promotes the use of violence more than impunity. Violence in response to speech, even speech of the most offensive kind, must not be tolerated.

“Victims deserve to be able to share their story. Name suppression gags victims and is salt in a very raw wound. Tens of thousands of Kiwis signed the Free Speech Union’s public letter to the police following last year’s incident, claiming the police failed in their role. This latest insult adds to injury (literally).

“The Free Speech Union is taking legal advice and considering appealing the decision to suppress Kiwis’ right to speak about this crime.

“Late last year we saw two people wrongfully arrested for peacefully protesting. Now, here’s someone who has physically assaulted a 70-year-old grandmother, and they’re let off. It’s deeply concerning.

“Not only should the defendant be punished, the victim should be able to speak. They should have been able to freely attend and listen at Albert Park in the first place.”

  1. We hope that the FSU is successful with the appeal…
    Now- just imagine if this had been Billy TK, Vinny Eastwood or Liz Gunn; they would have had the book thrown at them for not being ‘woke’ or ‘politically-correct’!
    This is exactly what has happened in the U.S. over the last 3 years in the Democrat-run Blue Cities where the crims get released without charge, and many have their names blotted due to the massive amount of criminal activities that they have previously engaged in!
    Just imagine the aspects of woke, politically-correct social credit profiles…

  2. Government pawns always get off scot-free.

    Had it been a right winger assaulting a man in a skirt, he’d be a household name right now and they’d already be prepping the lethal injection and prison camera crew. And we ALL know it.

    Laws that are applied selectively are WORSE than having no law at all. Yet another weak/corrupt judge to add to the growing list in NZ.

  3. Great precedent set by the judge. I wonder how many people who assault someone will use this defence, ADHD and autism. “Caught up in the heat of the moment”, yeah that hardly ever happens with assault cases.

    • They congregate in the Rainbow Room
      What does the Bible say about Homosexuality?
      It is an abomination
      These perversions start at the top
      And in fake Judeo Christian churches
      Whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men’s bones, and of all uncleanness

      • And what do they use as bait, oh, being anti-rainbow and antisemitic. Smoke and mirrors, wheels within wheels..

  4. The judge definitely showing marxist socialist tendencies and leanings here
    Where the victim is subject to suffer more trauma and indignation
    In that the victim has no real closure
    But is aggrieved by the fact that justice has not been served
    But after Christchurch nothing would surprise me

  5. The law is now administered from a playbook written in Washington. It is no longer justice that is served, it is ideological purity. Judges will follow the ideology because if they don’t they stand a good chance of losing their income and status – so they dispense hyprocrisy, not justice, and worship Mammon. If the ideology doesn’t make sense to you, that is because it isn’t meant to. It is meant to corrupt and demoralise you, to punish you and ultimately to destroy you and those closest to you, your history, and your way of life. And then you will be written out of history. If you don’t know why, you need to do some serious study.

  6. The courts have become just a bloody joke and the judges mere court jesters. If it was that judges mother who was punched would the perp.walk?

  7. We live under Babylonian Telmudic Judaism which is communism demonarchy mob rule
    Political Economic Religious
    Tolerance Diversity Understanding Equality Gay marriage miscegenation
    The Law Courts are an extension of Sanhedrin Democracy whereby both sides are controlled by the Nasi (Nazi) Judge
    Thereby determining the desired response and outcome
    What evidence is allowed to be submitted and deemed acceptable in the Court and what is allowed to be said
    Which was summed up quite aptly just recently by the Judge Engoron preceding over Trumps trail in NY
    Where he said he had the tools necessary to overturn a Jury decision
    The Courts are all Babylonian right down to the dark robes
