Is it the rule of law or is it more about breaking that rule of law to catch 'bad guys'
Like a mini Animal Farm?Something about Nietzsche, fighting monsters and becoming one in the process.
I only had a maternal great grandfather, Joe, who made his living making footballs and a great grand uncle, Charles, who kicked them, until he was KIA during WW1.https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Davidson_(footballer)
Pete was a Claremont WAFL and Eagles legend
Not sure this is our PDs strongest connection to footy though.
Not even sure our PD is even a Claremont supporter.
We've seen that in here a few times in recent days. He'll tell us the truth only when forced to, but in the meantime he'll treat us with contempt.Seriously ....
Former police chief Mr Overland had regular meetings with Lawyer X when was head of the Purana Taskforce and later when he was Deputy Commissioner.
He is accused of ignoring concerns from both handlers and senior colleagues though he denies that he knew she was informing on her clients.

Makes you wonder what 3838 life will be like moving forward."Perhaps some lawyers who have turned puce with rage over police using 3838 as a secret source should remember that if the royal commission is given broad terms, it will quickly discover there are practicing solicitors and barristers working in Melbourne who clearly skipped law school Ethics 101."

You raise a very interesting question. Inasmuch, it leads me to ponder, who protects witnesses into an such an inquiry?Makes you wonder what 3838 life will be like moving forward.
Her demise might mean less light is shone on the episode . But who would want this most?? At the moment the crims might feel her squealing at the RC may be of more benefit to them which also makes you wonder if an accident does happen to 3838 could the good guys be responsible?
If she has not taken witness protection it gives new meaning to thr word vulnerable.
An honest police force would be using resources to ensure she gets to the RC.
The sun will sensationalise this for everything it is worth. Rita is not known for her balanced reporting but appeals to the lowest common denominator.The Herald Sun is not letting up upon the heat it would seem.

"malfeasance of powerful individuals who decided that the ends justified the means."
"Victoria isn’t some backward banana republic or totalitarian regime where the accused have no rights; every person charged with a crime has the fundamental right to a thorough and robust defence.
It’s bad enough for a lawyer, who has a sworn duty to act in a client’s best interests, not to provide the very best defence possible but to actively work against their client in cahoots with the police is a betrayal that is mind-blowing."

Excellent article. As I asked a few days ago, how does a judge allow tainted evidence into court? He shouldn't.NATIONAL AFFAIRS

If judges don’t have a clear idea of how police should behave, where does that leave everyone else?

"more detailed lower-court judgements in the case keep appearing and disappearing from internet repositories without explanation."

If the judge knew? or the ODPP prosecutors knew?Excellent article. As I asked a few days ago, how does a judge allow tainted evidence into court? He shouldn't.

Has MSM published a list of the Judges and ODPP prosecutors involved in these trials? Presumably they all could be subject to being examined by the Royal Commission to ascertain how far a possible conspiracy went, if we're taking the allegations from the High Court and the opinions of some QCs quoted in the MSM at face value.
The disappearance of MSM articles statement is intriguing. I noticed it too, but some of those articles from the cases associated with Mokbel, like the Bart Rizzo one back ten years ago didn't mention Lawyer X at all, but the prosecutor was, in an article that appears in Google results - where the link returns that the article is no longer on Press Reader. Yet other articles names other ODPP prosecutors still remain, even ones naming the Judges and the various other defence barristers. I can only wonder if there's more than one person subject to suppression orders. I suppose we'll never know. MSM hasn't mentioned anything along those lines, so it's really perplexing.

Some of them might've left the ODPP.Does not 132s restrict the Royal Commission from inquiry into the ODPP?
