高级军官承认攻击罪 声称脑肿瘤为辩护 被法院驳回 Senior officer pleads guilty to assault, claims brain tumor as defense, rejected by court.

43岁的高级警官Ian Philip Rooke在殴打一名患有精神病的男子和分别殴打一名醉酒妇女之后,对两项普通攻击罪认罪。 Senior constable Ian Philip Rooke, 43, pleaded guilty to two counts of common assault after punching a man having a psychotic episode and hitting a drunk woman in separate incidents. Rooke声称他的脑瘤导致他的行为,但一名地方法官拒绝了这一说法,理由是没有足够的证据将他的脑瘤与攻击联系起来。 Rooke claimed his brain tumor caused his actions, but a magistrate rejected this, citing insufficient evidence linking his tumor to the assaults. Rooke自2024年7月被停职停薪,在3月18日判刑之前,他将进一步寻求医疗报告。 Rooke, suspended with pay since July 2024, will seek further medical reports before his sentencing on March 18.
