HAS THIS TRIGGS WOMAN GONE MAD ?
DOES SHE HAVE A CLUE HOW HARD PEOPLE HAVE TO WORK TO EARN $350,000 ?
(Warning : make sure you are sitting down before reading this)
CASE NO.1
A detained Indonesian refugee who beat his Australian spouse to death with a child’s bicycle "should be released into the community and given $350,000 compensation for seven years of arbitrary detention" the Australian Human Rights Commission has found.
Here's the record of this bloke that Triggs wants wants to $350,000 of taxpayers money to;
* He has committed many violent crimes since arriving from Papua New Guinea in 1985 and has a history of breaching bail conditions.
* In 1986 he was sentenced to community service for disorderly behaviour.
* In 1989 he was sentenced to three months’ jail for grievous bodily harm.
* Over the next seven years he was convicted and fined for numerous assaults, property damage and failure to answer bail.
* These include a string of offences in 1999 that included causing wilful damage, obstructing police and drug possession.
* In 2000 pleaded guilty to manslaughter of his spouse after first being charged with murder.
* He killed her by belting her over the head with a child’s bicycle several times after first punching her in the head.
* Chief Justice Paul De Jersey sentenced him to seven years’ jail for “spontaneous” attack and noted he was “drunk at the time”.
* He has been held in detention since 2007. The Immigration Department said he was involved in 50 behaviour-related incidents in detention, including assault.
* Psychologist Kipling Walker found a “persistent pattern of abnormal emotions and behaviour” and was at high risk of violent reoffending. “He continues to use threats to get what he wants,” he wrote.
* Another psychologist, Emma Collins, warned he did “not appear to have acculturated to Westernised lifestyle” and likely expressed himself through aggression “due to his culture and the influence of machismo”.
However, the Gillard Government appointed Human Rights president Gillian Triggs accused the federal government "of breaching the man’s human rights by holding him in immigration detention rather than monitoring him in the community".
She has pushed to have him released into the community (but perhaps not in a suburb where Triggs lives) and said should be handed $350,000 "compensation" from Australian taxpayers for the seven years of “arbitrary” detention - never mind the fact his long criminal record, that he bashed his spouse to death, and by all accounts presented a clear risk to the Australian community.
