Cop walks from yet another rape case
Police officer acquitted of rape
Suppression has been lifted on the occupation of a serving police officer who was last night acquitted at the end of an eight-day sexual violation trial in the High Court at Christchurch. Justice Graham Panckhurst heard submissions from crown prosecutor Brent Stanaway and defence counsel Bryan Green before lifting the order, which has been in place since the 43-year-old man was first charged. He noted a letter from The New Zealand Herald seeking an end to the suppression order on the occupation. But he made a permanent order suppressing the man's name after Mr Stanaway expressed the concerns of the officer in charge of the inquiry that publication of the name would lead to identification of his alleged teenage victim. An order suppressing the place where the alleged events that were the subject of the trial occurred will also stay in place.
Another teenager who lied about a cop raping them? It's like we seem to have a pandemic of those - I wonder what a Cop has to do to actually be found guilty of rape these days, I should ask Shipton and Schollum. I wonder how many cops have been convicted of rape to those who have walked free?

The jury found him innocent.
Cop-hater bomber, with no access to the evidence, proclaims him guilty.
Sorry bomber, as much as it displeases you, not all police are rapists.
There are more teachers who are kiddie fuckers than there are police. Since Bomber doesn't go on about them all the time we can only assume he' lost his objectivity to the point where he claims that a police having gone through due process of a trial is guilty even though he been proved innocent.
I guess its more difficult for a teacher to avoid rape charges, than it is for a copper.
