Thread: Police poachers not charged.

Police officer won’t be charged despite claim he was ‘poaching’ on private land |

I know one of them. Wife worked with his partner/wife.
He seemed to be a straight up and down fella. I reckon there is more to the story.

nah it would seem different rules apply to different people

The guy shone a light into a paddock. Nothing else. What are supposed to charge him with?

Yep he shone a light into someones paddock. You got to ask why??. Bullocks.

I may be wrong but I think there has been a compaint laid to the "police complaint authority" by three people who were charged of poaching under lesser circurmstances be interesting to see full outcome

Ute full of guns and blokes pointing a spot into a paddock that just happens to hold deer............. not rocket science really.

After being denied hunting access, only one reason to be there.

Illegal hunting. Shining a spotlight around with a gun in the car, thats all the evidence you need. Remember you can get charged for drunk driving with out driving the car. Sitting in the car with the keys is enough to get done. People have been charged around here for that exact thing. Young fellas shining the spotlight around down a local road around here got done for it. cocky saw them rings the cops. cops catch the young fellas and charge them. Yet this cop gets off for the same thing???????????

You or I would have been charged and have to pay to try and prove our innocence.
Appears wearing a blue shirt and you avoid that test.Nice of the crown law office to save these Fallows a lawyers bill.
Slippery slope.

Happened round here a few years back a still back and still happens in Dannerivke one of the cops is real bad.
The guy up here went into a paddock poaching in the cop ute and got locked in there buy a very irate farmer.
His punishment was he was sent to Pitcairn island.

Two sets of rules, one for them and one for us.
