    I guess you could say that the judge lacked conviction.

    The article says he was convicted to 125h of community services. It just wasn’t put on his record. Or am I reading it wrong?

      Yep. He basically argued that being famous as a Nazi was already making it impossible to find work, and a mark on his record would just make it worse. And then mentioned the second kid on the way to sell the sob story.

        That’s not a sob story; that’s probable cause for a CPS investigation.

        Maybe he should have thought about that before being a Nazi?

          Agreed, but he is a Nazi, so thinking isn’t really a strong suit…

      It seems like some parts of Australia have something called a “no conviction”. Never seen that before.

      After considering the case, Ms Stuthridge decided not to record a conviction.

      That’s the way I’m reading it.

      Doesn’t work that way at all in my US state. Every conviction is recorded and you can apply to have your record expunged or receive a “certificate of employability” five years after your conviction.

        Well, this happened in Melbourne. I don’t know how it works there. But it probably doesn’t work the same as in your US state

          It definitely does not! I think that’s why people might be confused, thinking they missed something.

    Alt-history is lame. Like it would ve lame to be yelling about germ theory, or how steam is superior than gasoline.

    Alt-history is lame, and these WW2 revisionists are in that same category.
