THREE BALLINA POLICE OFFICERS IN HOT WATER OVER CONTEMPT ALLEGATIONS

A magistrate has given three police officers a dressing down after they pursued an assault charge against a Ballina man, that turned out to be false.
Corey Barker today received $30,000 to cover his legal fees, and now the police themselves could be investigated for allegedly bashing the 23-year-old.
They Sydney Morning herald is saying that the alleged victim was an Aboriginal man. Do you know if he is or isn’t?
He is part Aboriginal, yes.
Corey is not ‘part’aboriginal. He IS aboriginal.
Hi Mark, if your question of knowing if Corey is aboriginal or not is so relevant to you, well my friend I think you missed the point of the story.
This looks like being one of those rare occasions where the police won’t be getting away with perverting the course of justice in a bigtime way. This may a rare case, as against the multitude of times where they get away with gross abuse of their powers that they’re actually going to get busted for their actions… and it’s about tine.
Does anyone know if those police offers involved have been suspended. God i hope my tax dollars are not contributing to these monsters.
He’s about as Aboriginal as Steve Price is Chinese.
Disgrace.
