Byron Bay’s ‘patient zero’ charges
The guy who travelled from Sydney with his two teenage children will be charged by NSW Police breaching public health orders after he allegedly travelled from Sydney to the Byron Bay area without a reasonable excuse in contravention of public health orders.
He is allegedly responsible for putting Byron Bay areas into a snap lockdown and is a Sydney businessman with convictions for drugs, burglary and forgery. As well, he has come before the courts on charges of domestic violence and breaching AVO orders against his wife. He has also appeared before the Appeals Court to appeal against his extradition out of Australia when his visa was reviewed.
You can read all about him and his criminal past here.
These people who knowingly leave restricted areas contravening public health orders have put the lives of those living in Orange, Armidale, Newcastle, Tamworth, the Northern Rivers, Lismore and Byron and now also Dubbo in danger. They should be dealt with to the maximum extent of the law.
I am doing the correct things; staying in my LGA, not travelling further than 10km for exercise, shopping on my own, always wearing a mask outside of my home and social distancing. I would love to be able to visit my family and friends but I know I can’t. Why can’t these people put up with a few restrictions to ensure their safety and the safety of others in the community.
I also have had my two injections of AstraZeneca and am now fully immunised. It would be great if being fully immunised I could have some release.
