A serving NSW Police officer has been charged with the sexual assault of a 9 YEAR OLD GIRL ! And was given bail !

We believe no one should be given bail when charged with sexually assaulting an innocent child, no one... especially a person in a position of power, like a currently serving Police officer, who may have used that power and trust to commit these heinous acts!

The New South Wales police officer has been charged with child sexual assault offences, following an investigation by the Professional Standards Command.

During the investigation launched last year into alleged historical offences, a report was made to police alleging a nine-year-old girl had been sexually assaulted in the Central Coast region in 2009.

Following the investigation, a 48-year-old man was arrested at Newcastle Police Station.

The senior constable, who was attached to the Local Area Command in the Northern Region, was charged with one count of sexual intercourse with a person under ten (rape) and two counts of aggravated indecent assault.

He was granted bail to appear at Newcastle Local Court on February 23.

We at FACAA believe no one deserves bail after being accused of sexually assaulting a child..

But the fact he got bail, I guess we shouldn't be surprised.

However, the fear that his position as a police officer would make him a target in prison should not be an excuse for bail, nor should his "good character."

The fact is, whatever good character he once had went right out the window when he was accused of child abuse.

Surely it is time that we no longer allow "good character" to be a reason for leniency in abuse cases.

Now that we are aware of the grooming tactics used by abusers, it is irrelevant whether they appear to be a good person at work, or with their buddies.

We are well aware that most abusers come across as nice guys who would never hurt a child.

As always if anyone knows the child please let them know that FACAA will do all we can to help them with our Phoenix programs.

When a police officer, one of the protectors of our society, is accused of breaking the trust of their position to abuse the most innocent and vulnerable in our society...... we must take those accusations very seriously.

Most police officers do a wonderful job trying to keep our children safe, but especially with historical offences, we must look at not only the accusation in question but be aware that there may be many more just waiting to come to light.
