On Tuesday he will learn whether it will cost him his freedom when he appears before the Melbourne Magistrates Court for sentencing. CAN'T WAIT ... !!!

as long as he gets something so that the poor Australians that he stole from feel they have gotten Justice..

Adler did time and so did Bond..they both thought they could get away with it.. to me the amount doesnt change the deed.. if you are in a position of trust then that makes it all the more despicable.

it was in fact more than that however he hasnt been charged with the money he spent on his election campaign..

dont forget he was also on a very very good salary and the fringe benefits were even better..

at least Williamson didnt keep up the pretense he had done nothing wrong..

this person has cost us millions it wasnt just $25k.

he will get off lightly I am afraid..
