Queensland Police abuse of power

Recommended Posts

Two car loads of thugs from the Qld Police Service violently removed, bashed and evicted an elderly invalid pensioner with a serious heart condition from a Housing Unit operated by the Qld Dept of Housing and Homeless in Cairns.

The exercise of brute power was based on an alleged order made by a 67 year old drunken Magistrate who was convicted for drunk driving on the Gold Coast some months ago and the Dept of Justice sent this drunken grub to hide in Cairns so that he could implement Govt policy in the Small Claims Tribunal.

The alleged order issued by this drunken grub was invalid and he could not even identify the correct section of the Act that he claimed to exercised this power under. He may have had a quiet drink for breakfast so that he couuld deal with the stress of the job.

Now the State Govt and tax payers are paying for his accomadation in the Police Cells in Cairns and I will expect further accomadation will be provided at the Lotus Creek Prison on the Tableland.

Be very aware of who is sitting on the Bench if you are going to Magistrate’s Court in Brisbane as this drunken grub returned to the south east corner a couple of days after he pretended to be an acting/magistrate in the Small Claims Tribunal in Cairns.

You could end up getting a criminal record issued by another convicted CRIMINAL who is too old to be a magistrate in accordence the terms and conditions of the Magistrate’s Act 1991.

Brisbane magistrate in court for drink driving

AMELIA BENTLEY

June 29, 2009

A Brisbane magistrate has sat at the opposite side of the bar table when he faced court on a drink driving charge today.

In Brisbane Magistrates Court, Arthur Gordon Dean, 67, of Highgate Hill, pleaded guilty to driving drunk on Boundary Street, West End, on May 23 this year.

The court was told Dean, who is an acting magistrate, had a blood alcohol reading of .075 per cent when he was pulled over by police at about 1.30pm.

The legal limit is .05 per cent.

Defence lawyer Martin Burns SC said his client was "profoundly sorry and thoroughly remorseful" for the offence.

"He has apologised to his former colleagues," Mr Burns said.

He said Dean had also suffered great embarrassment and had let his wife and former colleagues down.

"Above all others, he should have known better," he said.

Magistrate Michael Barnes said he took into account Dean's former position as a full-time magistrate and said he accepted the offence was "in no way related to your position."

"It's quite unnecessary for me to lecture you on the prevalence and dangers of this offence," he said.

Dean was fined $400 and disqualified from driving for three months. A conviction was recorded.

Dean was a magistrate between 1997 and 2007 and during his career as a magistrate he sat on the bench both in Brisbane and Gold Coast.
