Today, the High Court granted special leave to appeal against a decision of the Court of Appeal of the Supreme Court of Victoria and unanimously allowed the appeal. The High Court found that the jury, acting rationally on the whole of the evidence, ought to have entertained a doubt as to the applicant's guilt with respect to each of the offences for which he was convicted, and ordered that the convictions be quashed and that verdicts of acquittal be entered in their place.

However you are entitled to your opinion. I am sure Richter QC would not have risked his reputation by acting ProBono had he thought that there was any shred of fact to convict. Pell would do anything to protect the church, and would never have reported anything to police which may brought the church to bad publicity. It is still hard for a person who has been sexually abused to be believed irrsepctive of gender. Many still hold the attirude that men/boys cannot be raped, and if it is less than anal rape, then "thats ok". If a lad is abused by a woman, then the attitude often remains "lucky him" One cannot convict by association, Pell has always been a controversial figure due to adherence to pomp and tradition, and his own arrogance. He was not on trial for his arrogance. His behaviour and guidelines and administration of the Melbourne Solution was all about protecting church coffers. His arrogance led him to believe he was the "chief inquisitor" similar to the bad old days of doctrinal courts Overwhelming evidence that the offence could not have happened in the manner alleged, and the fully informed judgments (not opinions) of 100% or the finest legal minds in the country, can not compete with the years of sustained vitriol by some media organisations. People and media organisations share a trait of extreme resistance to admitting they got it wrong. In regards to the cover up allegations, Pell has been vigorously investigated and there has never been an adverse finding. It may well be the case that when the redacted parts of the Royal Commission transcripts are released in the coming weeks, that there is criticism of his actions. As you say, these separate issues.

Tell us who gave evidence that at the time of the alleged offence Pell was elsewhere, there is none.The suggestion was that he was usually not alone or that he usually was with other churchgoers after the mass. For some strange reason the victim seemed to recall the event very clearly! 100% irrefutable, now your really dreaming! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he was offering a comment on the "scale of the alledged act" as opposed to rape/buggery/etc, not a wise thing to do, as most barristers in Australia never give coment to the press, the same jurors do not. Quote This is no more than a plain, vanilla sexual penetration case where a child is not volunteering or actively participating (Richter) he was representing Pell and trying to downplay the abuse. I don’t know how else to see it. Edited April 8, 2020 by ncc1701d 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was AFTER the guilty verdict, at the plea hearing, Richter was attempting to note there were no aggravating features to Pell’s offending, for which his client had been found guilty at a time . So he (Richter as he must) had accepted the verdict of guilty, respecting the decison and making a plea on behalf of his client. It is expected the barristers attempt to get a lower sentence for their client. He has also apologised for his wording. It was not during the trial it was after , at the plea hearing.

All through the trial richter claims nothing happened, then Pell gets convicted, so in an attempt to get a lower sentence, his crack lawyer decides to try and downplay the acts as “vanilla”. The whole ordeal is disgusting. No doubt richter is now saying it never happened again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canthai55 Posted April 8, 2020 Share Posted April 8, 2020 He was tried for 2. Found guilty. And now some robed AH's let him out. And people wonder why there is no respect for the Courts of Law. If he did 2, very good chance he did 200, or 2,000, or ... If they would have threw him in Gen Pop the day he was found guilty then this whole farce would not have happened.

I know these ideas sound crazy to you and you'd prefer just to listen to your inner hatred drummed up by the ABC, but sometimes it can be better just to think, "what the heck. I'm going to give rational thought a try." How about you declare your religious affiliations, then you can run that statement concerning rational thought past me again. Pure comedy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
