She's had a conviction recorded, but no jail time.
The judge was quite sympathetic and acknowledged she took steps to tell the truth (entering witness protection), but would record a conviction regardless.
We'll see what the Law Institute make of this.
UPDATE: Herald Sun
Lawyer convicted, but avoids jail term
ZARAH Garde-Wilson, the gangland lawyer who refused to give evidence at the trial of those accused of her boyfriend's murder, was convicted today of contempt of court but avoided jail.
Garde-Wilson, 27, claimed she feared for her safety if she appeared on the witness stand after one of her partner's killers, Keith George Faure, threatened her life if she gave evidence.
Justice David Harper convicted her of contempt of court, but did not impose further punishment.
No, that's because disbarring will now probably take place.
..and that is punishment enough.
She should have been sentenced to a lifeime of fetching kebabs for Big Tony
ReplyDeletewho cares about this zarah chick
ReplyDeleteBOOOOOOOOOORING
get some real underworld news.
all you got is some wop lawyer crap, it aint underworld,
change your title to snitches and bitches
Don't listen to this newbie person. Post all the Zarah articles you like (with one proviso - pics are part of the deal)
ReplyDeleteHow would you like to be playing 'hide the sausage' with Zarah and suddenly big Tony bursts through the door looking less than impressed. Concrete shoes here we come
shes not even good looking,
ReplyDeletetony aint even big, his a fat fuck, he aint bullet proof, he cant even speak english properly...idiots
ReplyDeleteExactly got beaten the shit out of.
Deletetony aint even big, his a fat fuck, he aint bullet proof, he cant even speak english properly...idiots
ReplyDelete"What the fuck has that got to do with the above ? "
There isn't much Underworld news at the moment until the up and coming trials of a few crims, so Zarah will have to do for now I guess.
ReplyDeleteIf this Bluey fella gets his finger out his arse then I think we might see a few dead but doubt anything before the new year.
Andrew Fraser ? yeah! now there was one lawyer that walked a fine line.
ReplyDeleteI remember in the good old days the 70's & 80's when I would see him round The Cherry Tree in Richmond with the late Dennis Allen and Fred The Enforcer who worked for Dennis.
Bit of topic but a mate of mine got into a bit of a blue back then and Andrew helped him get off, think it was a gun wrap if I remember right, my old mate asked Dennis if he had the name of a good lawyer and he gave him Andrews number.
Later on Andrew was Jason Morans lawyer, Andrew was asked who knocked Big Al and Andrew said Jason, litte did the dickhead know that it was Mark Moran that did it, not Jason.
Jason was pissed off big time at Andrew doing this and and put out a $60,000 contract on his life while Andrew was in Jail over a coke blue, the contract never got took up and Andrew lived to tell the tail, thats more then we can say for Jason Moran.
I guess Zarah is the new Andrew Fraser or Chris Dane but with out the cock.
There's some interesting stuff you're posting there, SOS
ReplyDeleteDennis Allen - if half the stuff I've read about the guy is true he was mad as a hatter
His little brother (the one that died of an OK in the mid 80's) robbed the United Kimgdom hotel in Clifton Hill and someone was shot? I regularly go past the hotel this incident pops into my head. It's a McDonalds now
Clifton Hill - it's funny how it's been all done up with trendy little cafes etc all over the place. Some of the beautiful people that get down there on a Saturday or Sunday morning would die of shock if they knew half of what went on down there in days gone by. Ditto Fitzroy and Collingwood
Anyway, keep it up fella
p.s. a forum would be the next logical step here???
All the mad shit he did BUT he grassed 29 armed robbers to stay out. Victor seemed more of a dangerous person. Dennis killed in his own world , home .I thought my family were fucked up. Man.
DeleteA forum would be a good idea.
ReplyDeleteDennis was also with Jamie when he robbed the Hotel and it was Dennis who shot the barman in the leg, the old fella died in the hospital from a blood clot not long after but it was said it never had anything to do with the shooting.
Dennis was never charged over the shooting but Jamie was and he took the wrap for Dennis and did a bit of jail over it.
Many jacks that knew Dennis said that he had a hand in Jamie's overdose, they think Jamie got to big for his boots, Dennis wasn't involed in Jamie's death at all,
Dennis loved Jamie and with him doing the time for big brother they got even closer and when he was released he went to work for Dennis as a debt collecter for his booming drug empire in Richmond.
Fair point about a forum. It's dependant on people blowing each others' brains out on a regular basis to sustain it, and currently they're not helping the cause
ReplyDeleteI regularly post on a boxing site and one of the offtopic subjects which had some interesting responses was one about a policewoman murdered in the line of duty in the UK - whether the killing of a cop should hold more significance than the murder of Joe Bloggs on the street?
Do you guys go to http://www.melbournecrime.bizhosting.com ??
The place just stopped dead in it's tracks over a year ago and I read somewhere that they were putting it all into a book. Comprehensive stuff
go the forum!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWHO GIVES A FUCK ABOUT THESE UNDERWORLD TOSSERS GET A LIFE U IDIOTS
