‘Pendulum has swung too far’: Labor slammed for putting criminals before victims

Victoria Opposition Leader Jess Wilson promises a major overhaul of the state’s criminal justice system, accusing Labor of allowing the rights of offenders to outweigh those of victims.

“This system has operated in New South Wales for a century, and it has operated well; this is a very common-sense decision,” Ms Wilson told News24 host Peta Credlin.

“It’s actually ensuring that we’re seeing victims at the centre of our criminal justice system.

“At the moment I think that the pendulum has swung way too far in favour of the perpetrator.

“I’m not going to apologise for making the decisions required.”
