This will be Richard's final court appearance. Together, we can protest the injustice of his prosecution AND show Richard our support and gratitude for his courage.
Bring your signs, banners, and voices to show Richard he’s not alone – and to demand an end to the war on whistleblowers.
Richard will be sentenced in the District Court of South Australia across the road at 9:30am. The hearing will likely be brief, and we will remain outside to greet him once it’s finished. The public will also be permitted in the courtroom.
Richard exposed unethical debt recovery tactics inside the Australian Tax Office, protecting small businesses and vulnerable Australians. Despite being vindicated by independent inquiries, he has faced years of criminal prosecution and the threat of jail. Earlier this year, Richard reached a plea deal to avoid prison time and to end this ordeal.
