NZ: the "least corrupt" nation. I've known people that have done longer sentences actually inside for having a fight.
No matter what this flawed justice system says, this is infinitely worse than 2 blokes punching on, no matter how out of hand that punch on gets. We're talking about man vs man compared to child vs man.
@91waves
Castration and lifetime should be the case filthy politics. No justice
@BarneyR2
Louise Nicholas – βdisappointedβ – also undermines the seriousness of the issues. Why would you not use words that actually represent the reality of the ruling words like disgusting, appalling, sickening, outrageous etc are far more appropriate.
@BarneyR2
That ruling sets a precedent that you can cause harm against children and you wonβt be jailed or even be put on the s offenders register. Thatβs what the ruling says to everyone that the NZ justice system only views this harm as minor. What a joke.
@BarneyR2
Heβs been given a gold card to download all the same material from his home internet. What a true embarrassment is our NZ justice system.
@KhromeLee
this that double standard ππΏ…..π€people in power can do as they please π€¨ I smell a Lieπ€₯
@Mandaraver
What a disgrace this country has the most pathetic justice system infact it's not justice at all. Porn addiction? He's a frickn pedophile
@tareqwilson5722
Pathetic little weasel !!
@dougharris4526
nz police have lost all respect, now they're doubling down by pulling the justice system into the gutter with them
@kolbywright4740
They should take a look at that judge probably in the same circle.
@ronniehetaraka7002
Why he didn't get jail like other pedophiles. Goes to show how corrupt the system is
@JoanneSpruit
He should be in prison come on so he's allowed to carry on disgusting.
@thinking102
IM AM SO DISGUSTED THAT THIS CREEP SICKO GETS TO HANG OUT AT HOME FOR A FEW MONTHS. REPULSIVE!! and also pixxed at stuff for banning our comments and thoughts on YT
@jeffcampbell9000
His pornography addiction is going to spiral having to stay home
@Justme-s9j
Judge Tim Black directed home detention so what is stopping this criminal accessing the internet again
I doubt McSkimming is remorseful only sorry that he was caught
This in my opinion should have carries a custodial sentence with a rehabilitation clause included
How can we trust the police of judicial system now?
@nafatali688
Bullkaka two laws

Everything needs to be taken into account when judging which Iβm sure happened. Louise Nicholas is not a judge.. he has got a sentence and if he went to prison, it would be costing the taxpayer a huge amount of money. He will pay for this by having no credibility anywhere he goes and his family have paid the price for his actions. I would like to think something good will come out of this.. pornography addiction is a terrible thing and hopefully help will become more available. I abhor what he was watching on police devices, however police see the most disturbing things and need help to deal with what they must see.. his sentence reflects his crime and he was not a publisher or distributor of these horrific materials. He got caught which should give us relief that not even those at the top get away with crimes.

πππππππ NEW ZEALAND LAW 2025
@MarcusGorinski
He is just the fall guy for the real case which isnt going through the courts. Theres an Auckland police officer thats done 100x worse than Mcskimming , but police are worried the public will cause riots.
@williambright5052
Why, he should be in general population in maximum security prison, I presume all public servants are entitled to home detention when they commit crimes
@laurencaseley5355
WHAT A FARKEN JUDGE
@YEALANDS2024
Yuck
@Noboddy_01
Anyone else would get a much harsher sentence, such legal hypocrisy..
@leegreen9928
Jesus is coming this man and the judge has to face his maker. I fear for him and all who play around with justus and law like its a hammer to build a fence between themselves and GOD and accountability. Repent, get baptized and grow up NZ. Jesus has to heal all those animals and children stop hurting our saviour!
@d34dlys0ul
This is going to further radicalize the psychpaths out for blood. Putting police in more danger
@Mel-qr5ob
Mishandling of justice will lead to more deaths because people will stop risking letting police and judges fumble their cases.
@38babe1
Yes sentencing is a let down. Any other person would be on paedophile list. I dont care about his remorse. He was the deputy commissioner of police. We believe in these high ranking people i am so disappointed in the court system. What do you think the Aotearoa community would do with this kick in the guts." NOT FAIR"π’
@mattnolan3548
This lady shouldβve been the judge for the case
@kelzkat
Men r fkd
@kelzkat
What about no internet?
@PoliticianHikoi
NZ law system is crap
This is the reason why NZ is a mess.
@richardrandell2838
What happened good for one good for others What about the strikes everybody else would get strikes why is he different everybody else would get a jail sentence how come he gets home detention good for one good for others how ridiculous is that walks free
@davewilliam5826
So a ex police officer gets to stay home and play computer games during the 9 months home detention
@telforddisservicesandco
She (Louise Nicholas) sounds so knowledgeable and sophusticated, which will be very appealing for a lot of Kiwis listening to her voice.With such a wealth of experience, maybe she could put herself forward for a job on the bench.
@NancyeO-k1d
This is disgraceful, do they not realize that the man has a serious problem, this man obviously watched objectionable material that included children and animals..
UNBELIEVABLE !!!
@manamotuhake1835
Disgusting
@Manifestwithintention
What a disgrace to New Zealand Police Force and the Justice System. He needs to go to JAIL period!!! Judge is delusional if he thinks itβs ok wtaf!!!! To many judges dictating lame convictions b.s
@WoodstockNcodys
Someone in that position in the police force should have been jailed, just the child porn alone would get the average man locked up, and then you have animal porn on top of that, he's a very sick man and a slap on the wrist will not detour his future offending,
What happens if his neighbors get a dog or cat, what's going to stop him from sneaking over the fence at night and having sex with the cat ?
@royalenfieldracer7806
Absolutely disgusting. Regaining credibility my arse. Justice is very elusive in New Zealand
@paittenbishop8949
The judge should be ashamed of himself. I was nearly murdered, and the guy only got 6 months of home arrest… There is something wrong with this justice system!
@yoski9485
weak punishment for such a horrid offense, this variety of offense always goes under punished. how bad does it have to get here in NZ before we start taking our youths lives seriously.
