New Police Commissioner Howard
Broad may wistfully hope to restore public confidence in the police force.
But his own direct involvement in the Christchurch Creche investigation, now
means that New Zealand's top cop is himself hopelessly compromised by his own
past, spokesperson Brian Robinson announced today. The Christchurch Creche case is
now recognised by the majority of New Zealanders as an obvious miscarriage of
justice. Howard Broad has never admitted that mistakes were made by himself
or any other officer in that investigation. Howard Broad has has also never
apologised to any of the Christchurch Creche staff for his own actions in
unnecessarily destroying their careers and reputations. The Christchurch Creche case
remains symptomatic of why public confidence in the police has eroded. Until
Howard Broad understands and is willing to acknowledge his own failings, he
remains incapable of leadership in restoring any sort of confidence for the
organisation that he now leads.
