Well,
It's off to Court for me and the Fire Chief on Wednesday.
To testify our version of what happened over the whole series of events.
We will both be cross-examined by the Defence Counsel and by the Counsel of the Prosecution.
I must say that I am not particularly looking forward to it, you know what Defence lawyers are like, and this one(so I'm told) is like a rabid dog!.
I will have to wear my Formal NZ Fire Service uniform+ medals, etc, and it is made of materials that make me itchy.
The accused will be present at this pre-trial, to hear the evidence against him.
And then His Honour(the Judge) will decide if there is a case to answer.
I can't comment any further really, but I would imagine that charges of Arson, Wilful Damage, Endangering the life of a Fire-fighter, will be mentioned in the case.
We'll see how it goes!.
Thanks for your attention to this, guys!.
