1
00:00:00,360 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: Afternoon. Trevor Mallard is being sued by a teenager for

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:06,200
Speaker 1: turning the sprinklers on the protests at Parliament in twenty

3
00:00:06,200 --> 00:00:08,559
Speaker 1: twenty two. The girl was eleven at the time. She's

4
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:12,600
Speaker 1: accusing him of causing mental anguish, humiliation and dehumanization by

5
00:00:12,640 --> 00:00:17,000
Speaker 1: weaponizing baby Shark, and she's seeking forty thousand dollars in damages.

6
00:00:17,360 --> 00:00:19,840
Speaker 1: Tudor Clee is the lawyer taking the case and with

7
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 1: us now hate Tudor.

8
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:23,160
Speaker 2: Good afternoon, Tudor.

9
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:25,599
Speaker 1: While I love that you're suing him and he absolutely

10
00:00:25,600 --> 00:00:28,480
Speaker 1: does deserve this. This is not going to succeed, is it.

11
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:33,320
Speaker 2: Well? I think it is, and that's why we're taking

12
00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 2: the case. I mean, ultimately, it's a case about whether

13
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:41,040
Speaker 2: or not this child was degraded and having extrements slided

14
00:00:41,080 --> 00:00:43,879
Speaker 2: into her and being blasted with music is, on the

15
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 2: face of it, my view, degrading. And if it isn't,

16
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 2: then what is it?

17
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 1: Are you doing this pro bono?

18
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:52,239
Speaker 2: Yes?

19
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: I am Why?

20
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:59,360
Speaker 2: Well, I think that we've got to a point where

21
00:00:59,360 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 2: we can even have consensus about whether or not it's

22
00:01:01,840 --> 00:01:04,759
Speaker 2: wrong to flood excrement into children order to blastom with music.

23
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 2: And I think that something has to be done about.

24
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 1: Just because you said it twice, what do you mean

25
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,200
Speaker 1: by by flood excrement into children?

26
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:15,600
Speaker 2: Well, so there doesn't seem to be any dispute that

27
00:01:16,040 --> 00:01:19,679
Speaker 2: Trevor Mallard flooded the Parliament grounds like he told police

28
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 2: that he was going to do it, he did it

29
00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 2: the next day, he went at the News and said

30
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:27,080
Speaker 2: he did it. A week after he told Audrey Young

31
00:01:27,120 --> 00:01:29,360
Speaker 2: at the Herald that he was aware that there was

32
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 2: excrement in the grounds and that's what he was flooding

33
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:36,920
Speaker 2: the water through it. So the police described it as

34
00:01:36,920 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 2: a quagmire of quagmire of human feces and mud by

35
00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 2: the next day. So again there doesn't seem to be

36
00:01:45,400 --> 00:01:49,280
Speaker 2: any dispute about the sanitation issues that were there. And

37
00:01:49,320 --> 00:01:51,800
Speaker 2: so the question is that is this how we treat

38
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:54,760
Speaker 2: people in New Zealand? Kind of like that.

39
00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 1: I love that he's getting his come ups, but this

40
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: is exactly the kind of long bow that's been drawn

41
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: in this case. It would appear that makes it really

42
00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: unlikely it's going to succeed.

43
00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:09,560
Speaker 2: Well, if it doesn't succeed other then at least we

44
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,160
Speaker 2: know moving forward that if you have a protest of

45
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 2: parliament and you disagree with the people, then you open

46
00:02:14,760 --> 00:02:16,959
Speaker 2: the sewage and you flood them out. And if that's

47
00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:18,839
Speaker 2: how if that's what the case is, then I think

48
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 2: that everyone.

49
00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,160
Speaker 1: Look, I'm not a fan of Truva Mallied, but I

50
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,920
Speaker 1: feel like you are exaggerating what's happened here. He didn't

51
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,240
Speaker 1: open the sewage, did he. I mean he played the

52
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 1: macrena at people like a child and then turned on

53
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:32,760
Speaker 1: the sprinklers, knowing full well that they would likely to

54
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 1: be damaged. I mean, if we stick to the facts,

55
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 1: what he did was was head like a dickhead. Right, Yeah,

56
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: I'm not going to argue with that. Sure, Okay, have

57
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 1: you heard from him?

58
00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,799
Speaker 2: No? I haven't. I mean, it's it's obviously in a

59
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:53,400
Speaker 2: court process. But so the asway is that it's just progressing.

60
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:56,440
Speaker 1: Okay, And when is this likely to actually go to court?

61
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,760
Speaker 2: I would say probably about a year to get a

62
00:02:59,760 --> 00:03:00,880
Speaker 2: try they realistically.

63
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 1: Okay, are you worried at all about wasting court time here?

64
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:08,639
Speaker 2: No? Absolutely not. I think these sollegitimate questions that need

65
00:03:08,680 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 2: to be answered.

66
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:11,800
Speaker 1: Okay, you the best of luck. I really appreciate your time.

67
00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:13,680
Speaker 1: We'll keep an eye on it. That's tu toically a

68
