Hindle was, at that time, serving a suspended sentence for having sex with and filming an underage girl. They had been in a consensual relationship when Hindle was 19 and the girl was 15.
Despite that conviction and sentence being publicly reported in The Advertiser, Ms Stewart said her supervisors advised she could not tell Polkinghorne of Hindle’s criminal history.
She said that was because Hindle was also in Families SA’s own database as a perpetrator of domestic violence in previous relationships, and so confidentiality protocols had to be observed.
