No Oppo Supporters Marlion Pickett Arrested

[Harrison Bergeron]

Guilty or Innocent - he's already spent more time locked up than Joffa did. Let that sink in.

All we need is one Tiger fan on the Jury. Then not Guilty. problem solved. Lol

I get that.
But 'whataboutism' doesn't detract from serious charges.
And Joffa's day is coming!

It makes no god damn sense!! He is now a professional footballer who makes decent coin unless he’s trying to get something back that’s his.
He knows what could happen being so high profile.
There must be something else.
Just questioning why.

Some people will engage in theft regardless of income if they are certain they can get away with it. The fear of getting caught rather than answering to ones own conscience is what probably stops most crimes from happening. Perhaps there was no one supposed to be there when the burglary took place and it all went horribly wrong?

Anyhow, I have no idea if Pickett is guilty or innocent, but I am not going to discount it simply on the basis of 'why would an AFL player do something so stupid'.

Unfortunately that premise has been proven wrong too many times before....

Should find out more imminently

Who is the mod in charge? Oppo supporters on a thread that states NO OPPO SUPPORTERS and they abuse our posters and are reported and no action apart from scrubbing their abuse.

Disgraceful.

Not doing a whataboutism - just pointing out flaws in the law. Kudos to you anyway for seemingly being the only person here who didn't at least totally misinterpret the intent of my post.

This snip from The Age possibly explains why Marlion was kept in custody. Due to bail breach at least 12 yrs ago

WA police have a bad record.

Redirect Notice

One of the worst moments of Jim Taylor’s eight-year career as a Western Australian police officer was the day he strip-searched a 10-year-old Aboriginal boy.

Taylor, now 44, was working in Perth in the Juvenile Aid Group, or “Jag”. He says he was driving around the city’s central business district with his senior sergeant and two other officers when they came across a group of four young Aboriginal kids. They rounded them up and took them back to the station.

When he first joined in 2004, his view was very different. He had migrated from Turkey and was determined to contribute to his new country.

But he was shocked to see officers approach Indigenous people on the street and provoke them with racist language to “arc them up”. He claims this was a deliberate tactic.


“The easiest way to inflate the arrest numbers was to target the Aboriginal people, especially those homeless ones who are living in the streets, because they’re extremely easy targets,” Taylor says.

“That’s the [WA] police’s bread and butter...targeting Indigenous people and making it look like they are doing a lot of work.”


Her message to the officers was simple: “You can’t arrest your way out of this.”

She laid out an alternate approach, which involved diverting kids away from the justice system and engaging with the Indigenous community.

“Talking about other options and working with the community that they’re actually policing in, it was almost like a whole different concept,” she says. “It’s almost like you’re talking about aliens.”


“It makes me feel sick … I’ve got children now, similar age, to that age,” he says.

He left the WA police force in 2012, appalled by what he describes as a “toxic and racist environment” in which Aboriginal people, including children, were routinely targeted and harassed.

Perth is 2 hours behind.

Weird way to spell decades

Disgraceful.

I carded a poster earlier, they are now banned, I haven't seen any other reports come through?

 

[TigerImposter]

Still think it's a storm in a teacup considering the length of time they took to charge him. I was allegedly charged for two crimes a lot more horrendous than burglary and they took four months to press them. The police no matter what have to act if your name is mentioned especially if two or more scumbags are sticking to the same story.

 

[tigs2010]

Wait he was remanded for a decade old bail breach? Lmao

Actually happened flying in to Perth once! The captain asked the passengers to adjust their watches as they were two hours and 35 years behind!

What part of No Oppo Supporters are people not understanding?
Will hand out infractions from now on instead of just deleting the post/s.

Yea you’d think if they had clear cut cctv evidence that charges would have applied months ago , sounds like a Deep South 1950s , yeah it was him

Easy way to hold someone in remand until a court hearing especially if the evidence is weak, I’d imagine

What was the crime? Being an Imposter?

What? If you make yourself present by obviously scrubbing out posts, it means you are watching. It doesn’t mean you are off doing other things. That is a ridiculous statement.

Give it a rest, or put your hand up to be a mod yourself.
Of all threads, this isn’t the one for pettiness like this.

I don't need to answer to you, but if you must I am working on my laptop and occasionally browsing here.

No he was unable to be granted bail again because he has breached it in the past is how i read it, basically saying him not being granted bail is not entirely due to the aggravtaed burglary and other charges

 

[DickieKnee]

I think the reason he wasn't allowed bail this time is because of a previous bail breach.
