Attempted Sexual Assault Cover-up At Adelaide University

Howdy dear availees everywhere, apologies for the 10 day hiatus, but I'd had several days off since the last post, and then my computer politely fritzed-out, and I've just got it back...fortunately it was a relatively minor and therefore relatively cheap 'power source' issue, cost a bit but still better than getting a new computer and having to retrieve all my stuff, etc...also had tech fail issues when I tried to record Mt Gambier City Council CEO Andrew 'Peddle To The' Meddle last Saturday 19th September 2020, today's the 26th, but my battery was flat and I got nuthin', nuthin' I tell ya's...he was on the ABC South East Radio weasel-wording his way through another deceitful redefining of the realities relating to MGCC's appalling handling of the $39million, sorry, $57 m, sorry, $64m Farcical Aquatic Recreation Centre...but we'll get into that later today in a separate post...

Today we're just gunna' direct y'all to the extraordinary situation at Adelaide University...(Adelaide Uni or University of Adelaide, as it's reported in these stories below?-Ed)...whatevs, we know who we're talking about...can't recall if we covered this at all, but the attached stories are quite self-explanatory...when these 'resignations' of Chancellor Kevin Scarce and Vice-Chancellor Peter Rathjen first occurred there was a great deal of secrecy and conjecture about the motivations, there certainly wasn't any original admissions, etc...suffice to say, and given the way that the issue has evolved, there has been some effort made by Adelaide Uni to keep hidden the truth of this situation...here in order are four stories from the ABC, starting with the original report, and then onto the ICAC's involvement, and then the story everyone apparently knew but didn't want to know, and finally the most recent...

 https://www.abc.net.au/news/2020-09-08/adelaide-university-defends-payment-to-former-vc-peter-rathjen/12640972

So 'cos there's a ton of stuff to get through with those stories...(and there's several other reports there about Rathjen's conduct elsewhere, eg, his exorbitant travel expenses, etc-Ed)...indeed, so that's all I'm gunna' do for this post...I do however note that good ol' Petey got a good ol' payout, reported here as being "$326,400", which is bad enough, but InDaily reported it as being over $600,000...so here's that link...

https://indaily.com.au/news/2020/09/08/adelaide-uni-paid-vc-more-than-600k-despite-harassment-compo-claim/

Actually, I'd also point dear availees to the apparently conflicting issue of Kevin's supposed ignorance of the truth 'cos Petey supposedly deceived him, etc, and the fact of the "compensation" payment to one of the women involved...(well, I guess it depends on the exact timeline of the payment, but surely the Chancellor would be aware of any such payment-Ed)...well I'd find it extraordinarily unlikely that Kevin didn't know, but there are clearly numerous people within the Uni who did know...(and there must have been lawyers involved-Ed)...maybe, maybe the Uni just rushed it through so as to avoid appropriate scrutiny, etc...(fair point, but that last piece makes reference to lawyers being involved on both sides-Ed)...so it does, but I think that's about Rathjen's payout...as it's reported here, it appears that the woman's compensation payment occurred some time before Kevin suddenly resigned, supposedly ignorant of the facts...(well maybe he bailed due to the massive financial mismanagement identified, and the whole Rathjen stuff is just a marvellously convenient red herring to distract attention away from that-Ed)...your cynicism serves you well Ed 'cos I absolutely agree, I don't know that but it wouldn't surprise me in the least...

Regardless of my own conspiracy theories outside of the apparent Sexual Assault Cover-up Conspiracy, there's such a blizzard of conflicting accounts from all involved about who knew what and when and who's ultimately responsible, etc...what remains clear though is that Rathjen did Sexually Assault at least one woman and that the Uni knew...(and has he been charged by SAPol (police) for this Sexual Assault that the Uni has already acknowledged happened?-Ed)...well I don't see reporting of any 'Charges', but you're right, the compensation payment does show that the Uni technically if not specifically legally accepts that the Assault did occur...(and it's exactly the same as the situation involving former Jazz student Matilda Duncan and the 'payment' she received as a result of a Catholic Church investigation and report relating to teacher Graham Lyall Grooming and Raping her-Ed)...exactly it is Ed, and we re-refer dear availees to the New Matilda articles about this case, where-in Lyall himself identifies that payment...here are those links again...

https://newmatilda.com/2017/12/19/jazz-icon-graeme-lyalls-lawyers-threat-nm-with-contempt-proceedings-over-leaked-catholic-report/

https://newmatilda.com/2018/05/03/jazz-icon-showed-lewd-images-students-denies-james-morrison-academy-claims-teaching-role-ever-restricted/

Unless there's been some SAPol action on these that I'm not aware of, in both these cases there is acknowledgement by the institutions involved that Assaults did occur, but 'Charges' have not been levelled against the perpetrators...and yet again, for me this mimics exactly the St Martins Lutheran School Child Abuse Cover-up, where-in the school removed "text-book grooming paedophile" teacher Glyn Dorling but SAPol never even 'Charged' him, etc...(and of course Dorling also received an uncontested $250,000 'Unfair Dismissal' compensation payment from the Lutherans-Ed)...indeed, and all of these cases are to me just further proof of the Institutionalised Pro-Paedophile Corruption that dominates/controls South Australia, an Institutionalised Corruption that manifests more broadly in other issues of covering-up Sexual Assault, etc...

Tomorrow/Later Today: More FARC Debasco And Deceits

And where 'debasco' is of course a freight train-style Class A Debacle tail-ending a First Class Fiasco, such that the two become indistinguishable...(such pretty poetry in such damning condemnation-Ed)...one does what one can to not just furiously vent one's spleen...(hurrah!-Ed)...

The Australian Main Stream Media And ABC Are An Embarrassment Unto Themselves

Howdy y'all and welcome to another stop-gap sortta' post dragged outta' the Drafts section of this 'ere blog...after a hugely exhausting coupla' weeks I've deliberately given myself a bit of time off from blogging this week, so here's one I started several weeks back, with some more recent stuff tacked on the end...cheers...and to open, here's some stuff I copied across from Twitter weeks ago, but given the ongoing and escalating rancidly politicised attacks by the Liberal/National Party on Labor State Premiers, about border closures and lock-down measures, etc, it's all still relevant...anyone who is even mildly balanced in their political observationings recognises the LNP is attacking Labor Premiers whilst carefully remaining completely silent about the Liberal State Premiers...(eg, our very own Stephen 'Holla' For A' Marshall-Ed)....yep, who has shut the borders between SA and New South Wales...(and with Victoria-Ed)...and with Victoria...and of course the studiously sycophantic Main Stream Media and wholly subjugated ABC just lap-up these LNP talking points and regurgitate it all as 'News'...(and then there's the crass hypocrisies at play when PM Scott 'Scummo' Morrison and Border Force Minister Peter 'Spud' Dutton start publicly screech-preaching about 'humanity'-Ed)...indeed...

Ed is of course referring to Scummo's disgraceful commandeering of a Queensland family's funeral arrangements for their father, going onto shock-jock halfwit Ray Hadley's radio show to fake cry his way through his faux empathy...(and then the Prime Minister's Office lied, again, this time stating that Scummo was only responding to Labor Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk raising the issue in Queensland Parliament-Ed)...indeed...(when in fact it was Liberal Opposition leader Deb Frecklington who raised the issue, including giving the time of the funeral!-Ed)...exactly! but that reality hasn't stopped the farcically irrelevant MSM and ABC continuously reporting Scummo's lies as fact...(do any of these alleged 'journo' people do any fact checking at all any more?-Ed)...well you'd be excused for thinking 'No', no they don't, for example, revelations that Scummo/the PMO have been back-grounding State LNP stooges like Tim Smith in supporting and encouraging these attacks...(whilst Scummo keeps publicly harping-on about conscensus and supporting each other, etc, a proven hypocrisy given the reality of his conduct behind the scenes-Ed)...exactly, and then on top of that comes the revelations and related admissions that Scummo/the PMO is ringing journo's during Labor Premier's press conferences and feeding those 'journos' questions and/or outright directions as to what to ask...

Research for y'allselves Scummo's boastful history as Immigration Minister and his denying relatives access to the  funerals of loved one's who died in 'Immigration Detention', etc, etc, and look at Spud's current incarceration of the Biloela family (Sri Lankan refugees) and his statements about not making exceptions because it will cause a flood of illegal immigrants, etc, etc...when it suits them politically it's to heck with Human Rights and Decency and Humanity, but when they want to attack a Labor opponent, it's a tsunami of crocodile tears and faked sympathies...and the MSM and ABC rarely if ever cover these stark contrasts...and where do all these revelations occur? it's Twitter isn't it...

And no bloody wonder these self-important stooge 'journos' on/in the MSM and ABC get so spitefully shiteful when attacking those on Twitter who continuously out the collective stoogings of the pro-LNP 'professional media'...(I mean, it must be very embarrassing to have a bunch of 'left-wing-whingers and keyboard warriors' constantly exposing your voluminous and in many circumstances deliberate pro-LNP bias and abject failures to do even the most basic checks, etc-Ed)...for gourd sake, it took Twitter exactly sweet bugger-all time to jump on Scummo's 'Annastacia started it' lie, and post the actual transcripts from the Queensland Parliament, etc...(the other night on Channel 10's The Project RW shock-jerk Steve Price was made to look like the prick that he is when he tried to get one of the daughters to concede that Scummo had only responded to Palaszczuk raising the funeral in Parliament, and the daughter said, 'no' it wasn't her, I've read the transcripts'-Ed)...classic...(yep, but that didn't stop Priceless, he had another shot at it, and again was brutally shot-down-Ed)...indeed, it's a deliberate and massively biased pro-LNP misrepresentation of the facts, albeit it a failed one...and even today the ABC is still reporting that Premier Palaszczuk "took some body blows" on that issue, it's just bollocks...the facts are that Scummo ambushed someone's funeral for his own political purposes, spewed it into the MSM, and then tried to lie his way away from responsibility...(when it comes to Scummo, you can always rely on the fact that it's someone else's fault, not his, never his-Ed)...exactly, and he is emboldened and enabled by the pathetic MSM and ABC...    

And so it has been for months now in Victoria, with a litany of Right Wing Nut Jobs and assorted LNP Dick Wits given endless and unquestioning coverage in the MSM and ABC to attack Labor Premier Dan Andrews...and nothing covers that better than the Twitter stuff I referred to before and have included here...this is from a generic 'thread' so there's no specific acknowledgement...enjoy...

     Not one of these @DanielAndrewsMP haters is an expert in any medical field or has any 
     experience in dealing with a health emergency. Why listen to them? They have no idea.

***...and I'm loathe to admit that I know everyone of these rancidly self-important Right Wing Nutjobs, 'cos part of being informed is to monitor the putrid rantings of those you deplore...(and not least of all 'cos there's several politicians here, not surprisingly Liberal ones-Ed)...exactly, like our good mate Tim 'Franking Credits' Wilson there, second from right bottom row, and the last photo is Peta Credlin who was former PM Tony Abbott's Chief of Staff/'personal assistant'...(and allegedly his 'mistress' as well-Ed)...ugh, I know, and I reckon they've both denied that, but either way, don't they make such a lovely couple...and almost without exception, it's the glittering illuminati that populates the LNP benches, be it in Government or Opposition, it's almost always these clowns who seem to genuinely revel in lowering the tone to subterranean mud-slinging sans actual fact or rational rationale...(yep, never let facts or reality compromise your LNP political agenda and/or allegiances-Ed)...and hence these morons completely ignore or viciously defend what's happening with the federal LNP or in NSW or in South Australia, etc, but cheerily congratulate themselves for ludicrous comparisons between Victoria and despotic dictatorships, eg, shrilly referring to Premier Andrews as 'Dictator Dan'...(and doesn't that prize dickhead Tim Smith wear a mask with 'Dandemic' written across it?-Ed)...yep, prize dickhead alright... 

And you don't have to travel very far to find multiple examples of the sort of rancidly abusive, often wildly misogynist conduct of the LNP...need another example, then go here (link just below) and watch an Absolute Prick professionally AbsoPrick his way through one of the most appalling displays of incompetence furiously trying to hide behind faux outrage and actual bitter misogyny...his name is Brad Hazzard, and he's a serial offender in this respect...(or rather, 'lack of'-Ed)...sorry?...(respect that is, lack of respect-Ed)...oh yeah, right, good one, apologies but my senses are somewhat swamped by my rage at this sort of putridly vile conduct...(and who's the clown behind him laughing?-Ed)...not sure, but that other pudgy guy is notorious Police Minister David Elliott, just Interweb search him and you'll see what I mean, eg, try 'Elliot Defends Strip-Searching Children' and 'Citizens Should Be Afraid Of The Police'...what I'm more concerned about is the clown in the Speaker's chair...(you mean the clown who's meant to maintain the decorum and respectful and lawful running of the Parliament?-Ed)...yeah, that clown, what's he doing whilst this vile abuse is being spewed into the Chamber?...

Anyone who knows me personally knows that I am a naturally respectful and gentle person, but they also know that I'm more than prepared to play other people's games by their rules where appropriate and/or necessary...and in that context, Language Warning:...this fat ugly fucker is a limp-dicked failure on so many levels, and he knows it, and he especially hates being held to account by a woman, and that's why he's so gender-focussed in his abusive response...   

https://twitter.com/JodiMcKayMP/status/1291255203698601985 

And what gets reported in the MSM and ABC? almost nothing, and yet again it appears that that very limited coverage was in response to the fury expressed on Twitter, and then only covered in a context such as to 'hose-it down'...but then watch how the ABC's The Drum 'reports' a single word from a Labor Member toward a LNP member...I understand the furore that surrounds the 'history' of the word "barren" as it relates to the LNP's gender-based abuse of former PM Julia Gillard, so there's also layers of hypocrisy goin' on right there, but this 'reporting' looks like it is literally just pumping righteous indignation oxygen into the subject matter to inflate the outrage beyond reason...watch and judge for yourselves...

https://twitter.com/ABCthedrum/status/1291327291927048193  

I admit that I do not know if there is a more extensive background to this exchange, is there a history from this Member of similar attacks? etc, but for me it's the vast disparity between the very limited reportage of Hazzard's prolonged and open attack, and the use of a single word...we're gunna' finish here and start on another post to be 'posted' later today or first thing tomorrow, but if you're so inclined, do research for y'allselves the levels of disparity in how the MSM and ABC are reporting politics in Australia, eg, last Sunday's Insiders program, once the gem in the ABC's political crown,  was just another embarrassingly obvious wall-to-wall LNP stoogefest, featuring multiple current or former Murdoch Media employees, 'Speersy' included, and Peter Dutton as the guest...here-in is Spud's screeching hypocrisies about 'humanity', etc, as it relates to his political posturing utilising a family's grief, and as that contrasts to his actual conduct toward refugees...

Tomorrow: Adelaide University's Culture Of Sexual Assault By Senior Academics

Because it's all in the same ballpark as this institutionalised and widely unchallenged LNP misogyny, and we regularly cover these issues of Gender Imbalance and Cultures of Protecting Perpetrators of Sexual Assault, etc...might instead be the second part post of my review of Mt Gambier City Council's deliberately deceitful Planning Application thingy for the $64million Farcical Aquatic Recreation Centre...not sure which yet, but maybe it'll be both...(hurrah!-Ed)...indeed, and apparently Graham Greenwood has been giving it a hammering again on his Facebook page, so we must check that out too...(yeeha!-Ed)...

I am Nick Fletcher and this is my blog, cheers and laters... 

They Call Him Fibber, Fibber, Master of Gaslighting

No-one you seeeeee, is faster or looser than heeeee...and yes dear availees, I am using the theme song from the TV series 'Flipper', the cetaceous equivalent of our own dear 'Skippy', in referring to our mendacious Prime Minister Scott 'Scummo' Morrison and his pathological aversion to telling the truth and relentlessly Gaslighting the electorate...(well in that context he's a multi-instrumentalist-Ed)...how so?...(well, he's playing fast and loose with the truth, thusly and simultaneously playing the Australian public for suckers-Ed)...oh nice one man...and his latest vile effort was to go on appalling 'shock-jock' Ray Hadley's bilious radio show and vilely fake cry his way through another wholly political, unambiguous attack on Queensland Premier Anna Palaszczuk...and the vehicle for this latest attack? Scummo shamelessly and opportunistically used a young woman's attempts to attend her father's funeral...(good ol' Scummo, he really is scum isn't he? although, in fact, scum can be useful, like pond scum can be a source of biofuel production, where-as #ScottyTheSimp is just a nasty stench lookin' for somewhere to happen-Ed)...indeed, he really is a deplorable human being, and this effort today is absolutely typical...and here's a link to a classic angry sneer photo of Scummo...it's said that a picture is worth a thousand words, and indeed this photo speaks volumes...what a guy...

https://twitter.com/davidbewart/status/1303664874610806784/photo/1 

And here's a lovely link to a comedic piece from Dan Ilic, that unfortunately is just way too accurate to be able to just wave-away as satire...this is as strictly factual account of how Scummo functions, it's relentless and absolute Cult of Personality self-aggrandising press conferences about endless 'Announcements' that inevitably prove to be straight-out lies...be it Bush Fire Recovery, Arts COVID Funding Support, the farcical 'HomeBuilder' program, etc, etc, he's all talk and no substance...  

https://twitter.com/danilic/status/1296749615232872448

And whilst we're on the subject of deceitful announcements and outright lies, here's Mt Gambier City Council Mayor Lynette 'In Da' House' Martin, as taken from MGCC's Facebook page, yet again relentlessly lying about what MGCC did and/or didn't say about the ludicrously exorbitant $64million Farcical Aquatic Recreation Centre...(hang on, she says "$57m"?-Ed)...yep, and on the same day Council announced this Tender to Badge Constructions, with it's massive price increase from $39.1m to $57m, it was being reported by The Advertiser that they'd seen the secret documents, etc, and that the true cost was more like $64m...(strewth! and putting aside her and CEO Andrew 'Peddle To The' Meddle's relentless weasel-words about this huge disparity in costs, eg, the $39m was just an 'interim costing', the reality is that this FARC was repeatedly presented and promoted to Mt Gambier Citizens/Ratepayers as being a '$39.1m Completed Project'-Ed)...and here again Lynette deliberately grossly misquotes support numbers, it wasn't '70% of respondents' who voted 'Yes', it was 70% of the 40% (approx) returned, a final figure of approx 30% support...(I also note that she doesn't actually explain any of the differences/adjustments/alterations/'future-proofing' that supposedly explain/justify this huge blow-out-Ed)...yep, weasel-words and deceit, from start to finish...      

https://www.facebook.com/cityofmountgambier/

And to close-out today, here's the links to two articles from Independent Australia, both relating to the apparent culture of gross misogyny in the Australian Jazz industry, a culture that extends to the Sexual Assault of women/girls, and the protection of perpetrators...(I see that James Morrison gets a well-earned guernsey for his appalling support of 'Rapist'/convicted Indecent Sexual Assaulter Matthew Harkin-Ed)...yep, but I do note that Morrison's mate, Groomer and Rapist Graeme Lyall doesn't get a mention...it is a very unpleasant but excellent discussion about where we as a community 'draw the line' between success and skill, etc, and gender inequality and sexual abuse, etc, and how to report and/or record and/or respond...

https://independentaustralia.net/life/life-display/sexual-misconduct-in-the-australian-jazz-scene-needs-to-be-discussed,14068 

So that's all for today, 'cos there's a ton of stuff to read through there...I also again refer dear availees to those New Matilda articles about Graeme Lyall, and to the articles about Sexual Assault in Educational Institutions and issues with the Morrison Jazz Academy by Matilda Duncan on her well-researched blog, matildaduncan.net...quick Interweb searches will get you there...


Tomorrow: Part Deux Of The FARC Development Plan Debasco (debacle tail-ends a fiasco)

This relates directly to the lies and deceits and weasel-words spewin'-out of MGCC...I see on their Facebook page a hilarious photo of the stooges grinning inanely about RUOK Day...I wonder how they reconcile this with their own bullying, harassment and abuse of fellow Councillors like Kate Amoroso?...(and what about that hilarious time in September 2017 when Frank 'The Jellyfish That Grew A Spine And Roared Like A Mouse From It's Ivory Tower' Morello bailed you up outside a Council meeting and threatened and abused you, and then Mark 'Mighty Marky Mark McShenanigans' McShane, and Nick Serle and Mark Lovett came out and joined in?-Ed)...indeed, if it wasn't so serious it would be pathetically hilarious...I distinctly recall the hilarious sight of them pouring out of the door but getting bottle-necked there 'cos I didn't back off, and then Lovett tried to intimidate/threaten me, and then McShambles threatened me as well...in a word, pathetic...

I am Nick Fletcher, and all this above, particularly that I don't succumb to gutless posturing bullying and threats, this is why Magistrate Ian White helped these clowns get me banned from Council meetings, via his reprehensibly vile political mis-use of Final Intervention Orders...(well because of that, and 'cos ya' then go home and slam it all down on this 'ere blog, outtin' them for their Nepotistic Institutionalised Corruption , and makin' them look like the thuggish crooks that they are-Ed)...indeed...anyhoos, I am he, you's are here on my blog, and cheers for that and laters y'all...

The $57M FARC - Mt Gambier City Council Are Crooks, Thugs, And Liars

Howdy y'all to another very, very brief post, but that's only 'cos there's a veritable truckload of homework to be done...and cheers to the peeps who have been pointing-out some of this stuff to me, alerting me to certain Social Media posts, etc, etc...and so there's this, follow the link below...here is MGCC Mayor Lynette 'In Da House' Martin and CEO Andrew 'Peddle To The' Meddle being interviewed on local Triple M radio this Friday just gone, 4th September 2020...this runs very close to the same weasel-word  deceits and outright lies and gutless denials that these prize clowns spewed-forth on the ABC South East Radio Friday a week ago, 28th August 2020...and the bonus here isn't just that this might mean I don't have to transcribe all that shizzle, but also, that there's 2 interviews here, the first being with Mr Graham Greenwood, as referred to in the previous post on this issue...   

I also note that someone directed me to some Social Media posts by MGC Councillor Kate Amoroso, in response to criticism of the Council en masse...these posts align with stuff I've previously heard about how Ms Amoroso has been trying to get Council to inform Ratepayers/Citizens, rather than do all of this dodgy dealing 'In Camera', that is, secretly...Graham Greenwood also raises this issue, eg, that Council knew a full year ago that the cost had already blown-out from $39m to $50m, but didn't tell Ratepayers/Citizens...I have also heard many other 'statements' about Council's appalling bullying, harassment, and abuse of Cr Amoroso...and I say "statements" rather than 'rumours' because I believe it all to be completely true, given 1) my 'sources', and 2) my personal experience of what shitfully gutless li'l thugs infest the benches of MGCC...(they really are a very low brand of human being aren't they-Ed)...well I tried to gentrify the title as best I could, but Crooks, Thugs, And Liars was the best I could manage...and just for the record, none of this stuff has come from Cr Amoroso, apart from the Social Media stuff, and I will be discussing it with her before I go into any specific details...anyhoos, here's the link...

https://www.triplem.com.au/story/graham-greenwood-raises-his-concerns-regarding-the-community-and-rec-center-for-mt-gambier-166124?fbclid=IwAR3Rp7aJavE_WWppj73e4SEGIskmI1OttcF0gZIvwqyxAM99Wu9HHwIi6Uc

I hope you 'enjoyed' this as much as indeed I have...(yeah, there's nothing quite like listening to Crooks, Thugs and Liars define themselves-Ed)...indeed, and 'cos it goes for so long I'll just direct y'all to it now and then do a further more thorough 'review' in a separate post, cheers...

Tomorrow: My Attempts To Stop The $57M FARC Fraud

And can I just make the point, as indeed I'm sure some regular dear availees are asking themselves, yes, I have been hugely and repeatedly critical of Graham Greenwood, including on this specific subject, the unnecessary FARC...I have criticised him for 'potentially' just serving-up Dorothy-Dixer style pseudo-criticism to MGCC, therefore allowing Council to deny and distract and deceive Ratepayers/Citizens, etc...but I was wrong...(sorry what?!-Ed)...and never happier to be proven so...(hang on a second-Ed)...'cos I'd rather be wrong if it involves having someone of Graham's relative credibility and 'conservativeness' and profile and social influence, etc, working for the benefit of this community...(ahhh, I get it, it's that 'the enemy of my enemy is my friend' stuff-Ed)...well, not really, it's more about the fact that Graham is clearly genuinely concerned and genuinely has the best interests of Mt Gambier at heart, and appears to have acted upon that concern...(fair enough-Ed)...we may never agree on anything ever again, but given that this is arguably the third largest issue currently affecting Mt Gambier, his 'activism' is welcome...

(Ummm, "third largest issue"?-Ed)...well of course there's the St Martins Lutheran School Child Abuse Cover-up, and then there's also the Culture of Sexual Assault at the Morrison Jazz Academy...(fair enough-Ed)... 
 
I am Nick Fletcher and this is my blog...cheers and laters...

Court Dismisses Corrections SA Attempt To Gaol Nick Fletcher

Howdy dear availees, and welcome to a super-short post that is in fact already done via the title...regular availees will be aware that Corrections SA has tried to argue that due to my diagnosed Mental Health issues with chronic and debilitating Agoraphobia, related Anxiety, and Depression, that therefore I was not a suitable candidate to do Community Service, and therefore I should be gaoled instead...(sorry, hang on, they're saying that if, due to Mental Health issues a person, in this case you, is not able to do Community Service, then that person should go to gaol instead?-Ed)...yep, that's what I said, and indeed, what Corrections SA were arguing...(and in a context where there is no gaol time involved in the original 'Conviction', it's only a 'fineable offence'?-Ed)...yep...(so they were saying that Mental Health issues is in and of itself a justification for gaoling someone?-Ed)...it's slightly more complicated than that, but yes, ultimately, that was their rationale...(that sir, is a bloody disgrace-Ed)...absolutely it is, and whilst this was clearly a 'personal vendetta' against li'l ol' moi on account of because 'Authorities' done hate me and the work we do here at this 'ere blog, etc, the fact remains that they've even gone to this place at all...

A Brief History:...like I said, it's slightly more complicated, but only in the sense that there's been one helluva' lot of official Pro-Paedophile Political Persecution leading up to this situation...regular availees will be well versed in the many and varied aspects of my "bizarre trial" (The Border Watch) and subsequent deeply corrupted 'Conviction' for 'blogging' about South Australia's Independent Commission Against Corruption, etc, etc, and I'm not getting into that again today...today we celebrate what it is in many respects a massive 'victory'...(albeit a victory for common sense!-Ed)...well sure, that's certainly one way to look at it, but I also take a degree of pride in riding-out this latest storm, and those close to me have encouraged me to take a brief moment to celebrate what they describe as a significant achievement...so, in that vein, Woohoo!...(yes indeed, well done sir-Ed)...

Now, whilst I am genuinely 'proud' of what I've managed to achieve here...(predominantly by just standing ya' ground and telling the truth-Ed)...indeed, but I don't want to get too carried away with my own wonderfulness 'cos as I said in jest, this is just as much a victory for common sense and decency and respect, as it is an exercise in brilliant legal machinations on my behalf...(well I don't know about "brilliant"-Ed)...yeah, that's exactly what I'm saying, and indeed I was barely involved in the hearing on Thursday 3rd September 2020, which Her Honour Magistrate Panagiotidis allowed me to attend via phone-link...(how do you mean "barely involved"?-Ed)...well, Her Honour spoke to the Corrections SA Prosecutor dude briefly, identifying where his/CSA's own Affidavit stated that I had provided them with medical evidence about my Mental Health issues back in October 2018...I'm not going to quote anything directly here 'cos the phone-link was a bit scratchy and I missed a few words here and there, but Her Honour was short, sharp and right to the point...(well are you allowed to quote stuff from Court?-Ed)...I think so, I didn't try to record it 'cos I know from my "bizarre trial" that you're not allowed to do that...(yeah right, you could have had a recorder sittin' there with you and nobody would have known-Ed)...indeed, but I didn't, but also I don't need no recording to have a particular statement made by Her Honour running 'round in my head...

"(I'm/We're?) Not Wasting Anymore Of The Court's Time":...and I've put that first bit with a (?) 'cos it wasn't clear, but the next bit was, clear as a bell...and it wasn't just the fact that Her Honour said this, it was the tone in her voice...it is not inappropriate for me to identify my interpretation of that tone as being one of a person who was not impressed, even frustrated bordering on annoyed with the CSA Prosecution...(perhaps Her Honour had had a particularly long day of dealing with various assorted drongoes, dufouses, and dare I say it, dickheads?-Ed)...well sure, possibly, probably, but it doesn't detract from the fact that HH even said this, it's a huge critique to level at CSA Prosecutions...(ya' know, in a very real sense, I'd reckon it's not a huge leap from 'Wasting The Court's Time', to 'Abuse of Process'-Ed)...spot on mate...(and I'd argue, even going as far as 'Malicious Prosecution'-Ed)...well indeed...(and the bizarrely self-contradictory CSA Affidavit would seem to self-identify this as absolutely being a 'Malicious Prosecution'-Ed)...well quite, and that has always been my position and I did identify that to the Court...

And to return to my earlier point that I was barely involved in this latest/final hearing, Her Honour did not ask me any questions, in fact I'm not sure I said a single word, and it was all over in minutes...(I believe the phrase HH used was 'the application is revoked'(?)-Ed)...yeah, something like that, but again, it was dropping in and out a bit as phone reception has a habit of doing here in 1955, I mean here in Mt Gambier and regional Australia more generally...it was all so sudden and more than a li'l surreal given what's happened previous in my "bizarre trial" processes...I wasn't exactly sure that I'd heard it all correctly, and indeed it wasn't until Her Honour stated 'You have no matters before the Court Mr Fletcher' that it started to sink-in a bit...2 days later and it's still a dawning reality...(and ironic really that "sinking-in" can cause a sense of being 'uplifted'-Ed)...and most poignantly put dear Ed, indeed, that's exactly what's happened, it's exactly how I feel...I was an absolute write-off yesterday...(but that didn't stop you pursuing Mt Gambier City Council's latest act of complete bastardry, their massively corrupt construct, the Farcical Aquatic Recreation Centre $57million Fraud-Ed)...well I had a go sure, but that's for tomorrow's post...(fair enough-Ed)...today we're just gunna' celebrate a quiet slice of 'Stickin' It To The Man'...   

And having said that, I'm under no illusion that this whole affair, this wholly corrupted affair is anywhere near concluded...(well there's your ongoing attempts to just access your "bizarre trial" recordings/transcripts with a view to actually getting your Appeal lodged-Ed)...well yep, there is all that, just another hugely corrupt bastardisation of appropriate process as part of the broader "Malicious Prosecution"...(and there's the rancidly corrupt politicised Final Intervention Orders, aren't they still 'active'?-Ed)...think so, not sure...(and does this latest decision mean that other restrictions have been lifted, eg, you can now leave the State?-Ed)...great question mate, I've no idea, so I'll have to write to the Court and seek direction/clarification...(and possibly get the transcripts, etc-Ed)...yeah, that too...and so as not to shoot myself in either foot and/or both, I'll also get direction about posting my own correspondence with the Court...(well that's your own stuff so I'd reckon that's not an issue-Ed)...that's what I think, but just to be sure it won't hurt to ask...(and it's not like we ain't got a tonne of other stuff to cover-Ed)...indeed...(do you reckon that CSA might try to Appeal Her Honour's ruling?-Ed)...well, whilst it wouldn't exactly surprise me given their malicious conduct thus far, you'd reckon that HH's comment about "wasting anymore of the Court's time" might put-paid to that...

So in conclusion, I'd just like to allow myself another small Woohoo!...I'd also like to acknowledge that handful of people who have supported and/or advised me through this latest round of "Malicious Prosecution", particularly my ever-suffering Tech Support who has doubled as my Emotional Editor, helping me produce balanced factual correspondence sans anger and provocation, cheers big ears...

Tomorrow: MGCC's $57m Fraud And Deceit Of Mt Gambier Ratepayers

They say that politics makes strange bedfellows, but I never thought I'd be quilt-sharing with Graham Greenwood...and because I've been scathingly critical of Mr Greenwood in the past, it gives me great pleasure to be proven wrong on at least this one issue...

I am Nick Fletcher and this is my blog...cheers and laters...

PS: Please indulge me this, one last Woohoo!...(back of the net-Ed)...
