“In tort law, a duty of care is a legal obligation which is imposed on an individual requiring adherence to a standard of reasonable care.”
Sensible Sentencing Trust is under no misapprehensions that our politicians have failed in their ‘Duty of Care’ to protect our children from sexual predators!
What about our Judges? Our legal guardians – the gate keepers for society – have they upheld their legal obligation to our children which requires them to ensure an adherence to a standard of reasonable care? Have they upheld their ‘Duty of Care’ to our kids?
New Zealand’s horrific level of child abuse makes the answer to the two questions above obvious. Both our elected representatives, [our politicians] and our Judges have failed in their ‘Duty of Care’ to ensure our kids are safe from danger – particularly a danger often living right in their midst!
To use another legal acronym by their very actions they have ‘Opened the Flood Gates’.
The legal action against SST by the Director of Human Rights Proceedings has exposed us to the reality of paedophilia – and to be brutally honest, has shaken my world.
So given the fact our politicians and Judiciary have abdicated their ‘Duty of Care’ to our most vulnerable - whose responsibility is it - to ensure our children are protected from evil, who is going to take on this task to ensure our kids are safe from sexual predators?
Sensible Sentencing Trust has a vision of a New Zealand safe from violent crime – that means we have a responsibility to uphold a ‘Duty of Care’ to our children.
already resulted in the Government agreeing to establish a ‘Child Sex Offender Register’ but the proposal at this stage is for a closed register which will still allow these predators to operate underground, in the world of darkness and anonymity they rely on – and our law sanctions!
