Message: [QUOTE="Jason Simmons, post: 2908750, member: 8275"] Couldn’t prove the possession element of the charge. Scenario: Police walk into the alleyway, two men are standing there and a bag of coke is lying on the ground between them. Whose bag is it? Hey wait a minute, one of these guys looks like Karmichael Hunt... He is that famous guy who is said to love his coke... Detain both and search. Both deny ownership of said bag of coke and make no further admissions or denials. Karmichael has another drug on him, other guy has nothing. Clearly the drug on the ground must be Karmichael’s. Seize the bag, give Karmichael a notice to appear in court and an identifying particulars notice to get to a police station in 7 days and have your fingerprints and photograph taken. Probably a DNA sample notice too. Take the drugs to the exhibit office and lodge. Check the bag out and take it to the scenes of crime office, complete a drug transfer with the forensic officer and send the drugs off for analysis and the CSPB for fingerprinting / DNA testing. Karmichael’s prints and / or DNA are not found on this CSPB and maybe no-one else’s are either. Maybe not and someone else was charged as well? Karmichael fails to attend the nominated police station within 7 days for unknown reasons and is given a notice to appear in court for contravening a police requirement. Quick chat to the Prosecutors - there is insufficient evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Karmichael possessed the bag of cocaine - charge likely to be withdrawn on this basis as suggested by Mr Magill, the Principal of a big time law firm in Brisbane, the lawyer on retainer to advise the Qld Reds and occasionally the Brisbane Broncos and a man who himself has had plenty of legal hurdles to overcome. Other 2 charges to continue prosecution. Something along those lines occurred, I would suggest... [/QUOTE]
