Judge frees stalker who sent sickening text message to ex-partner after 'raping' her
Judge Greg Koppenol reportedly ruled that it would not be fair to the accused if the text messages were used as evidence and presented to the jury.
An Australian judge allowed a stalker accused of "raping" his ex-partner to walk free from court, according to reports. The accused was allowed to go free despite a series of apologetic text messages which he sent to the victim admitting he had raped her.
Judge Greg Koppenol Queensland District Court reportedly ruled that it would not be fair to the accused if the text messages were used as evidence and presented to the jury, according to The Gold Coast Bulletin. The man, who has not been identified, was reportedly accused of sexually assaulting his former partner while their child slept in the other room.
