Suggest an addition- The charges against Hillsong Director/leader exposes controversy of NSW's unequal justice and the ODPP's Director/leader
edit1. Controversial charge - Double standards for “Directors not acting on crime” by ODPP (Director_of_Public_Prosecutions_(New_South_Wales)
Where justice and the related laws can be disparate and neither a Director of Public Prosecutions or a Director of a Church organisation is guilty of the initial subject crime;
i. The DPP himself is not charged after repeatedly "not acting on a crime" by refusing to prosecute two rapists for a recent death of a woman by a sexual assault who obviously herself can’t report it to Police, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lloyd_Babb#Controversy_around_the_failure_to_prosecute_suspects_accused_of_the_sexual_assault_and_manslaughter_of_Lynette_Daley
ii. His office then approves charges against a Director of a Church organisation for allegedly "not acting on a crime" by allegedly not reporting decades old sexual assault to Police despite the victim, by then a living adult male, able to report it to Police himself and able to call the Director of the Church as a possible witness.
2. Controversial timing of the charge – Directors of ODPP were “Not acting on crime" when the charge is announced (i.e. They weren't on duty at the time)
The charges of the Hillsong Director were announced Thursday 5 August in the 1-month window between the 10 year terms of the outgoing ODPP Director Lloydd Babb who finished on Saturday on 17 July and the new ODPP Director, Sally Dowling starting Monday 16 August. Hence they were announced less than 3 weeks after a deputy DPP Peter McGrath started filling in as acting DPP but who himself was not destined for the directorship at the time.
