Defiant Derryn Hinch vows to continue campaign to name sex offenders BROADCASTER Derryn Hinch has ended his five-month court-imposed silence on 3AW today by promising to keep fighting to name and shame sex offenders.
The man known as the Human Headline was sentenced to five months' home detention for breaching suppression orders by naming sex offenders - and had a lot to say about it.
He told 3AW listeners the law had to change if innocent children were to be protected.
Hinch was banned in July from broadcasting on any medium as part of his sentence for breaching suppression orders by naming sex offenders.
The 67-year-old told listeners it was great to be back after being under house arrest for five months.
"As I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted...It's great to be back here with a brand new website. Great to be back on 3AW. It is even better to be alive. Thanks to an organ donor and his family I have a new liver. And thanks to Bob Jones and his team I have a new life.
"Five months under house arrest. That's 153 days. That's more than 3600 hours or actually more than 13 million seconds.
"What was it like? I handled it. Didn't go stir crazy. Didn't get bored. Got used to the rules after being reprimanded in the first weeks for being 28 seconds late back from the exercise yard.”
Hinch said it was ironic that while he was under house arrest Independent Nick Xenophon used parliamentary privilege to name a priest at the centre of sex abuse allegations.
“He said he felt duty bound, sound familiar?” he asked.
Hinch vowed to continued his campaign for free speech, saying he would do it all over again to protect children.
