Should Mallard have been dragged into court?
Of course. Sue Bradford declared that when Police come around and investigate a parent for an alleged smacking incident, and the parent goes to court and gets found “not guilty” then the law is working.
The fact that they get dragged away from work and the social stigma of being accused as a child abuser is irrelevant. The fact that time and resource is wasted compared to working through the backlog of serious offenses is irrelevant. The law is working.
Let’s get Mallard in front of the court for hours on end for his alleged abuse.
In the words of Sue Bradford: “The law is working”.

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful sight! A labour minister in the dock. There's room for plenty more there, too.

ReplyDeleteWhere to begin explaining that...
ReplyDeleteNope, can't be bothered. If it's necessary then it's obviously a waste of time.
