Kent Parker - sunk and scuttled by innocence.

Last week Kent was in firm denial about the pending announcement of David's innocence. Even had his fiddler mate Ralph Taylor explaining on Trade Me how the confidence in the expected recommendation was falsely implied by an appraisal of the interview with David conducted by Ian Binnie. The presumption being that Joe Karam, a veteran of non-expectation until a decision is set in stone, had taken false hope from the interview and presumed the result of a whole inquiry. In Taylor's small mind he could assume that Joe would presume several 100 hours of work by Binnie could be indicated in inclination from a relatively short interview. But desperate does what desperate do - Parker, Taylor et al are very desperate now as heavy coats of egg harden on their faces, improving their appearances, no end but beginning to stink.

This, when all the while, the Ministry flow chart indicated that the recommendation wasn't negative for David because, as under the rules for positive recommendations, it is proceeding to Cabinet. Very straight forward, as straight forward as the egg also setting on Bill Hodge the Law Professor's face who took the opportunity last week to promote his view of David's innocence using 'evidence' that only exists in his mind. But what of Kent now?

His situation is among the most interesting. It is he who has headed part of the persecution of David and Joe, he that has promoted Jury stalking, and the stalking of children. Everything he built against Karam was that Karam was somehow fraudulent, knew that David was guilty but didn't care because he was milking the system. Parker has quoted Joe's writing at length, implying sinister meanings and suggestions of Joe's insincerity - that's why Parker and Purkiss are in Court. Additionally, that is why the single word, innocent, has sunk every facet of Parker and his hate-sites. Everything they have built against others, everything they've used to justify stalking and threatening other nzers has been bases on not 'innocence' but indeed guilt that only they could see, guilt that they were confident Ian Binnie or any right thinking person (like themselves apparently) would discover if they looked closely at the case. This group were in fact enlightened and entitled, so much so that they could conspire to put people in prison that didn't agree with them, threaten to take their children. threaten to send gang members to their houses and so the sorry list of these sick people continued on until now - when they hit the wall with a big bold innocent. Already some attacks have begun, notably from Rita Cochrane and the entirely loopy Melanie White who I shall blog about, along with others later.

Assuming Kent had made itto trial and the recommendation was 'guilty' no doubt lunk head would have seen that as his justification. So thick he is, he would have considered 'guilty' justified his defamation and criminal support for Jury stalking and so on. Of course that would never have been the case, because his comments and activities went far beyond what is legal and could never be justified by a finding on a separate matter of either guilt or innocent. Parker and the hate-siters have never been able to comprehend that David's guilt or innocence didn't entitle them stalk and spread hate messages, didn't give licence to act out persecutor fantasies such as Christine Williams drooling at the thought of watching a hanging under torchlight or arranging to take children away. Yes, from a school teacher, to take children away from their families - the very extreme of Kent and his sick folk.

We can justifiably understand it is Kent who feels sick now, his fantasy has imploded and he has found himself in the hull of a rudder-less ship opening the scuttle valves to sink the misery of his own life, not of others whom he had designs of trampling over, along with spouses and children in his great crusade of hate. That which motivated him now consumes him.
