>Beyond the political storm, what has been forgotten is the person the heart of this issue—Brittany Higgins, a woman who endured a terrible sexual assault and was let down by those entrusted with her protection

Oh wow! Nary even a hint of "alleged" there, to diminish Lehrmann's #rape of BH. I commend his forthright courage, but now wonder if he'll get sued by the fscken #rapist too?

#AusPol #BrittanyHiggins

@crikey_news I'm pleased about this decision. I thought Rundle's words & sentiment were nasty venal & vindictive... towards the wrong people. Tbh, in prior times i thought he was pretty good, but more & more of late he seems to have become a bit of a self-important dick.

#BrittanyHiggins #Journalism

According to a Chaser journalist parodying a #Newscorpse "journalist", "The Daily Mail also released a statement confirming their commitment to stalking and harassing anyone who speaks out against sexual violence..".

AFP investigated for perverting course of justice in Lehrmann rape case
https://www.smh.com.au/politics/federal/afp-investigated-for-perverting-course-of-justice-in-lehrmann-rape-case-20230407-p5cyvl.html
I'd like to see justice for Brittany Higgins because I believe the allegations against Bruce Lehrmann.
There have been some awfully glaring irregularities in the investigative process by the Australian Federal Police that I fear have contributed to court proceedings being less fair and thorough than they should be. To quote the article, I worry there's been "investigator interference in the criminal justice process".
It gives me a sense of relief to see the matter being investigated finally, and cautiously optimistic that — at the very least — we might learn more. Too much has happened for me to hope the wrongs against Brittany Higgins will be undone, but I think the public has the right to know how broken the system is and who the perpetrators are.

The AFP will be investigated for attempting to pervert the course of justice while looking into the alleged sexual assault of former Liberal staffer #BrittanyHiggins by her colleague Bruce Lehrmann.

The Australian Commission for Law Enforcement Integrity, a watchdog tasked with detecting corruption in federal agencies including the AFP, will also investigate how the private diaries and text messages of Higgins were leaked to the media despite not being tendered in evidence to court #auspol

#AFP = absolutely fucking prejudiced

#BrittanyHiggins #auspol

Was it ethical of #NewsCorp to publish #BrittanyHiggins’ diary?

“Never show the AFP something you don’t wish to see on the front page”

I simply cannot believe that it is not illegal that something provided in evidence to AFP & never disclosed in court can be released to a “News” outlet as an obvious attempt by an opponent to pursue a media-driven vendetta. #auspol

The Coalition trying to rewrite history to make them the victim & using evidence that was confidentially supplied by the actual victim to the corrupt AFP #auspol

“Let me see if I’m following.

I’m publicly defamed by my former employer.

I donated the money to charity because all I wanted was an apology and a retraction.

And yet… somehow Linda Reynolds is the victim in this scenario?”

- #BrittanyHiggins

The Australian Federal Police has been a political arm of the Coalition for years now.

They are corrupt from the top down.

Labor needs to step in immediately & clear out the rats & restore people’s trust in the #AFP #auspol #BrittanyHiggins

From #BrittanyHiggins. It is possible elements within the police force are still working to undermine Higgins. If so, this is remarkably brazen, given their handling of her case is the subject of a complaint and under investigation.

Perrottet says ‘no one is perfect’ amid Peter Poulos explicit image scandal
https://womensagenda.com.au/latest/perrottet-says-no-one-is-perfect-amid-peter-poulos-explicit-image-scandal/

"No one is perfect" is not a reasonable thing to say about revenge-porn. What Peter Poulos did to Robyn Preston was revenge-porn. He posted explicit photos of her to harm her because he thought he could gain from it.

Dominic Perrottet was slimy and defended him with weasel-words. As Brittany Higgins said, "The more things change the more they stay the same".

Thinking of #BrittanyHiggins right now. Hope she’s doing okay.

RT @ShitFuckery1
The Liberal trolls are out...

Why is #BrittanyHiggins being paid?

Anyone with a semblance of consciousness knows WHY the Commonwealth settled before the court. Simple, its about a couch and Linda Reynolds / Michaleia cash

We pay to save the careers of those two ministers

END

#BrittanyHiggins received the compensation because her evidence was accepted by those with the power to award the compensation.

If she were lying then why would #Lehrmann's supporters be so keen to avoid a trial?

There's doubt about whether #BruceLehrmann's actions could be proved to be illegal beyond reasonable doubt but the test for compensation is not that high.

More news on the #BrittanyHiggins case regarding improper federal police behaviour.

It still surprises me that the armed arm of the #Liarberal #lnp party are among the most #unionised workplaces in #australia and any time someone suggested they or any of their state based #comrades are #bent they go straight to the #union. #ACAC or #ACAB.

Bet the police union members aren't often called #comrade
