Scandal Marlion Pickett - In Custody for multiple offences - Later bailed.

[Wosh]

Pickett has been charged by WA Police with four counts of aggravated burglary, with three counts of stealing and three counts of criminal damage among his other charges.
The alleged offences took place between December 2022 and January 2023.
Pickett has a “strong intent” to defend himself, his manager Anthony Van Der Wielen told 7NEWS in a statement.

Racist comments will immediately cop a long break from Bigfooty, discuss the issue not the skin colour or race.
Thank you.

P.S This thread has nothing to do with the Clarkson/Racism review discussion.
This thread is not the place to discuss the prison system and prisoner rehabilitation, you can take that to the SRP board.
This is the scandals and rumours board only, please stay on topic in here.

He wasn't.
Not sad.stupid.

When people say its sad its not necessarily about Marlion, its more about his family, specifically his Kids

 

[JHCAT23]

What a d bag. If guilty, back to prison where he deserves to be. You can lead a horse to water but you can't force him to drink

 

[WillHayward]

fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me

Yep
Looking like that ...

Dumb is a word id use , reckless, ignorant, arrogant, Inconsiderate. Not sad

I don't know you or how you behave offline, but if your impulse here is to jump on the internet and be a tedious pedant to people exhibiting empathy about a broken family, that is also deeply sad, arrogant, inconsiderate, ignorant and dumb.

 

[W.C. Fry]

Cops are pieces of crap. If you stuff up when you're a young kid they try to keep you on the hook for life. They do everything to make sure you never get ahead.

He was on an AFL contract in 2019, these charges are from 2020. As if he did that. Why isn't he out on bail? He sounds confident about beating the charges.

What a shit post, especially just hours after a cop here in Perth died from being ran over by a stolen car.

Nothing you said was correct. The charges are not from 2020, they are from a few months ago. He isn't out on bail as he hasn't been to court yet. He hasn't made a public statement.

 

[mcnulty]

This is what happens when you have s**t mates

Interesting corollary with the current mess at Hawthorn.

 

[Lingsface]

What a dumb unexplainable thing to do, the steps he has taken forward and probably on 200-350 k a year now, I can not believe it, very sad.

Sick of hearing how offenders are the troubled/broken ones. Nevermind the harm mentally they cause to innocent people in their homes. Have a listen of the last week and a half of the break ins through out Melbourne. To the age of the people the break ins are against.

If an impulse is to degrade someone of acting illegally, guilty of that here.

Keep the shit racist comments out thanks, no place for them anywhere

some people are so desperate to appear tough on crime, they lose empathy for victims

 

[Power Raid]

Honestly, what the *? Aggravated burglary?

circumstances of aggravation means circumstances in which —
(a) the offender is in a family relationship with the victim of

Saw the headline and thought he was arrested on the weekend. Would have been ballsy to to go out burging joints after the weekends game.

 

[BIRDBRAIN]

He didn't do nothin!

 

[Freomaniac]

Back to jail for Marlion

I don't know what court you operate.

But the bloke is innocent until proven guilty

Keep the s**t racist comments out thanks, no place for them anywhere

Not seeing many at all to justify multiple mods making warnings? Saw one voice comment otherwise its all well above board isnt it

If you’re going to get offended at least try and be half right. The offences are alleged to occurred in Dec 2022 and Jan 2023.

Would love you to spend a week with the cops to see even a portion of the shit they cop from absolute bellends

Pretty rare for an afl player to be in custody without evidence

Got any examples to dispel?

You don’t see what we see, thank you.

 

[Chief]

So my team is losing badly.

Time to ban racists.

The absence of evidence is not evidence of absence.

 

[Chief]

OMG Wosh that last guy is so lucky you deleted before I got the hammer out

 

[BuRgeRs82]

Is it just me or does it seem that there's a higher proportion of West Australians (both former VFL/AFL and current players) that get into trouble with the law ?

 

[Wosh]

OMG Wosh that last guy is so lucky you deleted before I got the hammer out

Go for it!

 

[fishardansin]

Surely it wasn't a fence picket as the choice of weapon for the aggravated burglary?

"Aggrevated" does not imply any interaction with anyone. It means there is someone else on the property somewhere. They could be sleeping or not know you're there.

 

[Chief]

We're innocent until proven guilty

Yeah try it and see what happens.
