Mike Butler: Report hypes family violence
Labels: Bill Wilson, Marama Davidson, Mike Butler, Sir Owen GlennSir Owen Glenn's $2-million inquiry into family violence that suggests considering alleged perpetrators guilty unless they can prove they are innocent is a 163-page waffle that tends to blame the police, courts, booze, and all of us, while absolving poor choice of partners and poor life skills.
