Aussie judge gets 3 years bird

Not sure what to make of this

PistonHeads Headlines

on the face of it, it seems OTT but is it that way because he's a judge, or could anyone face a sizeable custodial term for trying to wangle out of a speeding ticket?

He's a judge. He, of all people, should've known to follow the rules of the court. Lying to get out of a $77 fine? Good grief!!!!

I think he must have been psychotic. That sort of insane fictionalizing is not the action of a sound mind.

He has done a lot for human rights.

It is immensely strange that a senior judge would behave like that.

All I can think of judging on his past explainations is that he wanted to keep his moral highground by being the 'absolute' model citizen in everyway.


He still must be somewhat crazy though
