In a stunning courtroom admission, the NSW government conceded the officer punched her in the eye with a torch and that her arrest was unlawful. The state now acknowledges she’s entitled to damages, though disputes other parts of her civil claim. The officer was charged with assault, later upgraded to reckless grievous bodily harm. Police remain silent, citing ongoing litigation, as this case underscores the high stakes of police-protester confrontations. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
