The suppression order on David Garrett has been lifted, and the Herald now has all the squalid details. Apparently, he though it was "a bit of a lark". Then there's this bit:
Garrett asked to keep his identity secret to "maintain his reputation".So, we have an opponent of suppression orders demanding one to "maintain his reputation", and gaining a discharge without conviction with the support of a man who has publicly opposed any hint of mercy or proportion in the justice system. What a pair of hypocrites.[...]
Garrett was supported by three character references, none of whom are mentioned in the court record. But one is believed to be Sensible Sentencing Trust founder Garth McVicar.
