As Delta Blue and Poprock were fighting it out neck and neck down the straight to the finish line in the Melbourne Cup on Nov 7, a police car was making it's way toward our Gembrook residence. I was at work and learned when I arrived home that a summons had been delivered to the defendant, Gordon Williams.
There are two charges-
1. The defendant at Emerald on 21 May 2006 did enter as a trespasser a building or part of a building known as the Emerald Secondary College situated at Belgrave Gembrook Road with the intent to steal therein.
2.The defendant at Emerald on 21 May 2006 did enter a private place namely Emerald Secondary College situated 425 Main Street, Emerald without express or implied authority from the person authorized or on behalf of the owner or occupier or any lawful excuse.
We thought we'd hear no more of this incident after months of 'nothing'. I blogged about it at the time, Weekend Police Drama, back in May, when I was new to blogging.
We've engaged a solicitor in Melbourne who has advised me a to get a letter from the school along the lines of a character reference and also a letter from the psychologist who originally diagnosed Gord as Asperger's syndrome many years ago. Gord and I have an appointment with him at his home in Hurstbridge tomorrow as he wants to see Gordon again and talk to him after all this time has passed so that his letter will be accurate and specific.
After we have the letters,( the school is going to send me one, they tried to negotiate with the police to have the charges withdrawn but for some reason this couldn't happen) we then have to travel to Meelbourne to see the solictor one day to prepare the case or strategy.
What a pain in the arse!
