一名Wolloongong男子因帮助一名越狱囚犯而被判无罪,但因偷窃自行车和吸毒驾驶而认罪。 A Wollongong man was acquitted of helping an escaped inmate but pleaded guilty to stealing bikes and drug-driving.

A Wolloongong man, Joshua Leigh Dudley Dendulk, 43岁,法院没有发现任何证据,证明他故意庇护或帮助2024年8月逃离警方羁押的妇女,尽管她在同一地产,但他没有这样做,因此被宣告无罪。 A Wollongong man, Joshua Leigh Dudley Dendulk, 43, was acquitted of harbouring an escaped inmate after a court found no evidence he knowingly sheltered or assisted the woman who fled police custody in August 2024, despite being at the same property. 当他逃离现场并承认知道她在场时,Michael Love地方法官裁定这并不构成有罪。 While he fled the scene and admitted to knowing her presence, Magistrate Michael Love ruled this did not prove guilt. Dendulk对不相干的指控认罪,包括持有可疑的被盗物品——在他的公共住房单位发现4辆电动自行车,价值15 000美元——以及两起毒品驾驶案,2024年9月和10月在他的系统中发现甲基安非他明。 Dendulk pleaded guilty to unrelated charges, including possessing suspected stolen goods—four electric bikes worth $15,000 found in his public housing unit—and two counts of drug-driving, with methamphetamine detected in his system in September and October 2024. 警方相信自行车是偷来的, 指出尽管他有收入支助身份, Police believe the bikes were stolen, noting their rapid acquisition despite his income support status. 已定于11月举行判刑听证会,辩方要求提交判决前报告。 A sentencing hearing has been set for November, with the defence requesting a pre-sentencing report.
