It’s hard to imagine Sarah Ferguson has not broken many laws she should be in gaol for.
She failed to tell the police where a suspect was, and she let him get away. By this deed she therefore traumatised his child, who will have panicked and left her school now, and be hiding out somewhere in the Commonwealth or New Zealand, though she, the child, has broken no known law. She taped private conversations without a warrant. She libelled Australian citizens whom she should first have reported to the police. She arrogated to herself the powers of Roger Rogerson, to entrap, harass and blackmail in a secret war hypothetical enemies of the state without informing any authority she was doing this. She threatened a man at his place of work, and did not desist when he asked her to.
She concealed crucial information from the police, as Rebekah Brooks did, and may like Rebekah go to gaol for it.
On top of this, she injured our relations with Indonesia just at a time when we were giving some of their stolen children back to them and getting Schapelle Corby in return. Corby will possibly serve more years now and die in gaol childless, miserable and mad because Ferguson, supergirl, chose to interfere in the delicate negotiations Bob Carr had not yet completed with an edgy, uncertain, suspicious nation with whom we were, a mere decade ago, at war.
She has gratified Scott Morrison of course, and given him what he wants, more drownable children for his rhetoric, and a dirty, barbarous advantage in a racist election.
I ask her to debate this with me, on this page or in any public place.
I ask her as well if she votes Liberal, and if she had talks with any party official about the timing of the release of her report.
Roger Rogerson was a good man, misunderstood in his time.
Never knew him personally, but I do know several ex-cops who were all too well aware of him and some who knew dear Roger very well. The stories are a little hair raising. They ought to write a book.
I didn’t see all of the show. I caught the A Current Affair mugging of Captain Emad though, which I found truely bizarre.
More bizarre though was her, ‘he got away’ line. There was no follow up, just ‘he got away.’ It was the most contrived, self-serving piece of macabre journalistic theatre I’ve seen in some time.
I got the distinct impression she was working with the Australian authorities on this piece. They must of been aware of her working on this story. I would like to know what involvement former or current staff from ASIO the AFP and the Dept of Immmigration had in the story
I have to say that harassing the perfume merchants in Malaysia was somewhat staged, as was the scene with the shopping trollies in Tuggeranong or some such place;
He got away, he got a away, and the show ended…I felt cheated…
Got all your assets in your wife’s name now Bob?
R2, as my favourite question from the MMPI says:-
“It’s safer to trust nobody”
Attorney General,
You are breaking this treaty and trying to force other countries to criminalise refugees and their means of transport.
That is not thing more and nothing less than a contribution to genocide of refugees.

UNHCR Summary Position on the Protocol Against the Smuggling of Migrants by Land, Sea and Air and the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children, Supplementing the UN Convention Against Transnational Organized Crime
1. UNHCR has followed with interest the recent adoption of the UN Convention against Transnational Organized Crime, including the Protocol against the Smuggling of Migrants by Land, Sea and Air (“Protocol against Smuggling”) and the Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish Trafficking in Persons, Especially Women and Children (“Protocol against Trafficking”). The Office is pleased to be present at the High-Level Political Signing Conference held in Palermo, Sicily, from 12 to 15 December 2000.
2. UNHCR shares the concerns raised by many States that criminal and organized smuggling of migrants, on a large scale, may lead to the misuse of national asylum or immigration procedures. However, given an increasing number of obstacles to access safety, asylum-seekers are often compelled to resort to smugglers. UNHCR is also aware of cases of trafficked persons, particularly women and children, who may, under exceptional circumstances, be in need of international protection. The Office therefore participated in the preparatory work of the Ad Hoc Committee in Vienna, supporting its efforts to elaborate international instruments which would enable governments to combat smuggling and trafficking of persons, whilst upholding their international protection responsibilities towards refugees.
3. The Protocol against Smuggling, for instance, contains a number of provisions which may impact on smuggled asylum-seekers. The authorization to intercept vessels on the high seas, the obligation to strengthen border controls and to adopt sanctions for commercial carriers, or the commitment to accept the return of smuggled migrants may indeed affect those who seek international protection. A number of comparable provisions of the Protocol against Trafficking may have a similar effect.
4. During the sessions of the Ad-Hoc Committee, UNHCR therefore emphasized the need to reconcile measures to combat the smuggling of migrants and the trafficking of persons with existing obligations under international refugee law. The Office welcomes the adoption of a saving clause in both Protocols, designed to safeguard the rights of asylum-seekers and refugees under the 1951 Convention and the 1967 Protocol relating to the Status of Refugees, in particular in relation to the principle of non-refoulement.
5. In addition, UNHCR appreciates the adoption of provisions for the protection of smuggled migrants, such as the obligation of States Parties to take appropriate measures to afford smuggled migrants protection against violence and to take into account the special needs of women and children. The Protocol against Smuggling is also clear in that it does not aim at punishing persons for the mere fact of having been smuggled or at penalizing organizations which assist such persons for purely humanitarian reasons. Indonesian fishermen do not deserve to be charged or jailed.
6. In conclusion, UNHCR hopes that States Parties will respect the international legal framework set out by both Protocols through the adoption of similar safeguards in all bilateral or regional agreements or operational arrangements implementing or enhancing the provisions of these Protocols.

And the parliament ratified this in 2004 under Ruddock but our worthless fucking media keep telling me it is only my opinion.
I have not seen any exposés on your opinions yet Mazza – which media outlet?
Try The Man who Jumped about the brother of Roqia Bakhtiyari, try Following them Home by David Corlett, try my articles on Webdiary about locking up Australian citizens and the exposing of Vivian Alvarez being deported.
Try the stories behind the Indonesian fisherkids jailed when I discovered children as young as 13 being locked up and Michael Gordon at the AGE refused to do the story.
The problem with the brainwashed media in this country is they are too fucking lazy to look at facts instead of their own racist ignorant bias.
Who people pay to get here is zero to do with us, they are entitled to pay anyone they can to be safe just as we are.
Sarah Ferguson is on the wrong show, she should report for duty with ACA hunting down non-existent hookers.
Try Human rights Overboard where much of the information was supplied by me.
I am a behind the scenes person.
Ten million years.
I want this bastard deported before anyone else because dobbers disgust me.
I wonder though if the AFP gave Ferguson”s stooge his $250,000 as well.
Revenge drove Iraqi informer on people-smuggler

After giving a people-smuggler $2000 and not getting his promised trip to Australia, former Iraqi soldier Waleed Sultani decided to go to the Australian embassy in Jakarta and become a double agent and informant.
And as a reward for infiltrating the cross-border people-smuggling operations for the Australian Federal Police, he was given $250,000 of taxpayers’ money and a visa to come to Australia.
Giving evidence against alleged people-smuggler Hadi Ahmadi in a Perth court yesterday, Mr Sultani said it was revenge that drove him to turn against the smugglers.
“In August 2000 me and my friends went to the embassy. We suggested we could help them arrest people-smugglers,” he said.
“It was kind of revenge — he took our money and never cared about us.”
Mr Sultani was talking about Sayeed Omeid, an accomplice of Ahmed Olong, whom the prosecution described as the former No 1 people-smuggler in Indonesia.
Mr Sultani said he passed on information about the movement of boats, passengers and phone numbers of smugglers to an embassy official called Mr Lee. When he did this, he and the accused man, Mr Ahmadi, were working for Mr Omeid by helping to arrange the movement of asylum-seekers to boats that were leaving for Australia.
Mr Sultani said he had received $250,000 from Australian officials in 2005 after giving evidence at another people-smuggling trial, that of Hassan Ayoub in Perth’s District Court a year earlier.
When asked by Mr Ahmadi’s lawyer, Jonathan Davies, yesterday if he was expecting a bigger reward if Mr Ahmadi were convicted, Mr Sultani said “No.”
He told the court that in 2002 the Australian Federal Police had helped him come to Australia on a justice visa and for the next three years the agency had paid for his accommodation.
Mr Sultani said that from 2002 to 2005 he had remained in contact with the AFP, giving them information he had heard from Mr Ahmadi, who was then still in Indonesia.
Mr Sultani said he had left Iraq for Jordan in 1996, in fear of the Iraqi secret police, because he had deserted from the army, where he served as a lieutenant in the tank regiment.
He said he had then made his way to Malaysia and Indonesia in the hope of coming to Australia via boat as an asylum-seeker.
Mr Ahmadi has pleaded not guilty to 21 people-smuggling charges brought after he was extradited from Indonesia.
The trial continues.
