I don't see any momentum being diminished in the MSN about this direction by the Appeals Court, . at all. If anything, it is gaining momentum.. The Law has never been a static thing.. it does change, it is always slow, like a massive steel door moving on tiny ballbearings , but it does evolve, .. it isn't meant to be cast in concrete..
I have , if not a calm and considered confidence about this, I do have the general outlook that this Appeal verdict of Gerard's may in deed fall on it's face , and not manifest itself in actuality. As long as Gerard sits in his cell, I wouldn't be surprised to hear of many , many cogs turning many wheels in expectation of a setting aside of this outcome. I see many a slip twixt cup and lip for Gerard, not the least of it the rumbling genuine outrage among the general populace right across the country, not confined to Brisbane, or QLD. These are taxpayers snorting, and every Officer of the Court knows who pays the wages.
As I see nothing but a life of deep and constant public humiliation of Gerard and by extension , his family members who lied on the stand, for the rest of their lives, one could take this latest event with a certain amount of grim obstinacy. ... that's where I am at.
