the streets would be safer for our kids if the system wasn't so corrupt and protected pedophiles, One has to wonder why they are so protective???? Hinch walks free after 50-day jail-term

i think he was miffed about ending up at langi, which specialises in that kind of offender. he thought they'd sent him to durringole (spelling) the prison farm.

yes, I did.
It was in the link you posted? didn't you read it?
Hinch was found guilty of contempt of court in October last year for breaching a suppression order relating to murdered Melbourne woman Jill Meagher.
Victorian Supreme Court Justice Stephen Kaye said the former broadcaster's web posts, in which he breached the order, had been populist, self-serving and grossly irresponsible.
It was Hinch's sixth conviction for contempt of court or related offences, a record which Justice Kaye said was disgraceful.

Why not go through the right channels instead? and change the system, he has the money, doesn't he?

I clicked Kudos for you by mistake
Slip of the finger. Should have been a click on Reply
and my reply was to say that while people froth and carry on online
Hinch is out there putting himself on the line and drawing attention to the farce that is law
How many here are prepared to suffer for principle and for what they believe is corruption and foulness in society and wiithin the legal system?
I'd take one of Hinch against almost the entire population of this country
and I'd certainly have one of Hinch rather than the disgusting farces of political and legal cockroach-nests any day
Does my heart good to see the Aussies who support Hinch
but I don't see too many on the ebay boards

If his antics weren't so self serving I might see him slightly as a media martyr. Plus I can't fail to see the hypocrisy of consistently preaching about criminals while consistently breaching laws himself. You can't decry a criminal while becoming one yourself.
