1 00:00:00,720 --> 00:00:04,640 Speaker 1: International correspondence with ends in Eye Insurance, Peace of Mind 2 00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:06,480 Speaker 1: for New Zealand Business. 3 00:00:06,880 --> 00:00:11,080 Speaker 2: Murray Old Dotty correspondents with US Now he mus Good afternoon, Heather. 4 00:00:11,280 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 2: So is there a feeling in Australia that Jared Hayne 5 00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:15,160 Speaker 2: is going to have to do this fourth trial? 6 00:00:17,040 --> 00:00:20,960 Speaker 3: Well, it's unprecedented if it gets to the fourth trial 7 00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,799 Speaker 3: for the same alleged defense. Jared Haynes, of course, the 8 00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:29,640 Speaker 3: former rugby league superstar and was convicted of sexually assaulting 9 00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 3: a woman in Newcastle in twenty eighteen. The first matter 10 00:00:34,120 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 3: went to trial, the jury couldn't agree. It was a 11 00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:40,320 Speaker 3: hung jury, so that was in twenty eighteen twenty. In 12 00:00:40,360 --> 00:00:43,199 Speaker 3: twenty twenty, I Big your pardon. Twenty twenty one goes 13 00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,680 Speaker 3: to second trial. They found him guilty, but then there 14 00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:48,199 Speaker 3: was an appeal. It succeeded on the basis that the 15 00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:53,600 Speaker 3: presiding judge gave the jury flawed information, flowed directions. So 16 00:00:53,800 --> 00:00:57,120 Speaker 3: the DPP, the Director of Public Prosecutions, decided let's go 17 00:00:57,160 --> 00:01:00,760 Speaker 3: to a third trial and again he was found but 18 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 3: then again after a year in jail, an appeal has 19 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:07,120 Speaker 3: succeeded on the basis the presiding judge should have allowed 20 00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:10,560 Speaker 3: the female complainant, the woman who alleged that you were 21 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:13,679 Speaker 3: sexually assaulted. The judge should have allowed her to be 22 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:18,800 Speaker 3: cross examined about text messages that were either deleted or undisclosed. Now, 23 00:01:18,880 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 3: with a fourth trial be held, it's over to the 24 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:24,559 Speaker 3: Director of Public Prosecutions. But it might not get to that, Heather, 25 00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:28,560 Speaker 3: because Hayin is eligible for parole in May twenty twenty five, 26 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,320 Speaker 3: and they say a new trial is unlikely to get 27 00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:32,479 Speaker 3: underway before then. 28 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:34,640 Speaker 1: So that maybe the end of the matter. We just 29 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:35,520 Speaker 1: don't know at this point. 30 00:01:35,640 --> 00:01:37,399 Speaker 2: So he walked out of jail last night. Where'd he go? 31 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 3: I'm not sure where he went, But you know, he's 32 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:43,560 Speaker 3: got lots of friends in the rugby league industry, and 33 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 3: you know, he's got family and so on, So I'm 34 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:46,639 Speaker 3: not sure. 35 00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:49,680 Speaker 1: Where he went. Interesting, you know, it may emerge in 36 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 1: the next next few days. 37 00:01:50,960 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 2: I'm sure you guys are great in the media at 38 00:01:53,080 --> 00:01:56,000 Speaker 2: stalking these people are like harrising. I'm keen on it. 39 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 2: I'm looking forward to it. Listen, what's happened with the 40 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 2: unemployment that had suddenly come to. 41 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, down, it's not a huge drop in you know, 42 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 3: it was down to four percent from four point one. 43 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 3: The Bureau of Stats said, there's interesting forty thousand people 44 00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,640 Speaker 3: found jobs in May, plus the number of unemployed people 45 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 3: actually dropped by nine thousand. 46 00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:19,799 Speaker 1: Now here's the thing. Economists are saying. 47 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 3: The trend quote unquote, the trend unemployment rate that takes 48 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,840 Speaker 3: out seasonal volatility and a few other factors actually picked 49 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:30,799 Speaker 3: up slightly. It's now the highest that's been for over 50 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,560 Speaker 3: two years. As we're easing out of COVID, those lockdowns 51 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,400 Speaker 3: of COVID. Here's another interesting stat In May, nearly forty 52 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 3: two thousand people got full time jobs, but over the 53 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 3: last twelve months in Australia, seventy five percent of people 54 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,440 Speaker 3: who have found work are actually getting. 55 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 1: Part time jobs. 56 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 3: Now, what does all this mean for interest rates in 57 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:52,119 Speaker 3: the context of maybe an early election this year. Will 58 00:02:52,160 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 3: analysts are saying it will maintain the likelihood of a 59 00:02:55,080 --> 00:02:57,840 Speaker 3: cut and official interest rates by the Central Bank before 60 00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 3: the end of the year. And Anthony albanize he may 61 00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,080 Speaker 3: be factoring that in must. 62 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 2: Listen what's going on with these two cops who've been 63 00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:06,119 Speaker 2: charged with assaulting the ninety two year old. 64 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: Ninety two year old man. 65 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 3: This happened back in late January in south west Sydney, 66 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,400 Speaker 3: a senior constable and a constable have turned up in 67 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 3: response to a call about an alleged incident of domestic violence. 68 00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:21,280 Speaker 3: They find a ninety two year old man in the home. 69 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:24,799 Speaker 3: We're not one hundred percent sure exactly what's happened. The 70 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,359 Speaker 3: police though, were wearing body cameras. But the old fellow, 71 00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,680 Speaker 3: he has ended up in hospital with a fractured elbow 72 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,679 Speaker 3: and major bruising to his head and his arms. The 73 00:03:34,720 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 3: two police that have in charge with assault occasioning actual 74 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 3: bodily harm. One's also been charged with a separate count 75 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:44,119 Speaker 3: of common assault. And here's the thing. The Police Commissioner 76 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 3: Karen Webs come out this afternoon and said, because both 77 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 3: were wearing body cameras, there's a pretty clear picture of 78 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 3: exactly what's happened here. And she says the you know, 79 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 3: the big question now is going to be was their 80 00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 3: excessive force used by the two officers when they took 81 00:04:01,520 --> 00:04:02,680 Speaker 3: this fellow with the custody. 82 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:04,560 Speaker 1: He's ninety two years old. I mean, you could have 83 00:04:04,560 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 1: blame him with a feather. 84 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:09,160 Speaker 3: So let's just wait and see one police officers appearing 85 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:09,960 Speaker 3: at court in July. 86 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: The other in August. 87 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 2: Good to talk to you, Mouz.
