Two more Crown witnesses are
expected to give evidence today in the High Court trial of a high ranking
policeman and two former officers charged with historic sexual offending. Assistant Commissioner Clint
Rickards and former officers, Brad Shipton and Bob Schollum, are accused of
kidnapping and indecently assaulting a 16 year old in the 1980s. Clint Rickards told the Court he
has never met the woman and the other two accused deny the alleged incident
happened. Bob Schollum elected not to call
evidence and the defence case for Brad Shipton wrapped up yesterday. His wife testified they were on
holiday for one of the months the offending is alleged to have occured. The Crown was thought to have
concluded its case, but the prosecutor has confirmed he intends to call two
further witnesses today. |
