Man Charged With Harm, Threatening Words

December 4, 2013

A 41-year-old man appeared in Magistrates Court this morning [Dec 4] facing charges of causing grievous bodily harm and threatening words.

Maxwell Smith was charged with causing grievous bodily harm to a woman with whom he had been living; and using threatening words to her by telling her: “I’m going to kill you. I’m going to kill your children.”

The two charges arose out of an alleged incident last month. Because the charges are indictable, Smith will be tried in Supreme Court and was not required to plead at this morning’s hearing.

Senior Magistrate Archie Warner granted Smith $5,000 bail, directed that Mr Smith must not interfere with or have any contact with the complainant, and ordered that he must report daily to Hamilton Police Station between 8:00am and 8:00pm.

Mr Smith re-appears, for Mention, on 19th December 2013.

    This man really irritates my soul. He gives bail to this guy, but remands an alleged check forger in custody until fackin February !!!!!! Something wrong with that picture.

    I agree! Shouldn’t a judge have uhhh…good judgment?

    I was so sure that when I got to the end of this article, I would read that he was remanded into custody. I really don’t know how this magistrate makes his decisions. Does the Chief Justice or the Governor or whoever this so called judge reports to keep an eye on his outlandish and ridiculous rulings?

    Sorry to say, this man is an absolute disgrace to the bench.
