SMH 2008

Wild West
A probe into explorer Fairstar Resources has caused some collateral damage, our spies in the west report.
MD Kevin Robertson has been convicted of six firearms offences after a visit to his Kallaroo home last year.
The WA Supreme Court has rejected an application by Mr Robertson for spent convictions, which only have to be disclosed in some circumstances, to be recorded after he was convicted in the Joondalup Magistrates Court over firearms and ammunition found by police. A judgement by Justice Lindy Jenkins shows the Federal Police searched Mr Robertson's home in August last year and found a licensed double-barrel shotgun and an unlicensed .22 calibre rifle under Mr Robertson's bed.
The police also founded a firearm storage cabinet in his garage that was not secured to the wall or floor.
Mr Robertson was charged with possession of ammunition that he was not licensed to hold, failing to store weapons properly and possessing the unlicensed rifle, given to him by his father in Tasmania in 1994. He pleaded guilty in the Joondalup court in January, with his lawyers asking that a spent conviction be recorded. But convictions were recorded against the businessman's previously unblemished name and he was fined $2100. Justice Jenkins said the magistrate, in recording a conviction, was entitled to consider how long Mr Robertson had the rifle and ammunition knowing it was against the law.
