Sam Kerr’s criminal case has been a Rorschach testEnable observers to reach their results about the Muttalid Star before reaching a decision. Even the jury’s final search for the jury on Tuesday works very little to reduce the big questions about the reputation on the reputation, in which the future of Kerr as captain of the national team and the foot of women in Australia The hair face is included.
Kerr presented a Kingston Crown Court in London last week, which was accused of racial deliberate harassment, alarm or anxiety two years ago in London. The allegation revolves around four words about which Kerr confessed that he had instructed a police officer earlier in the morning: “Stupid and white fucking.” The question regarding the trial was whether this prescription has reached the desired extent of crime. Kerr requested not to be guilty.
But the case became very complicated, crossing the issues of race, gender, safety and privilege. And the evidence was reported by the Australian and British media-in which observers wanted an observer, there was plenty of gurus for it.
Consider this matter in favor of Kerr. After leaving London’s nightclub, Chelsea striker and his colleague Christie Mavis entered the taxi. Kerr said, Kerr said, on this occasion, Kerr felt ill out of the window, and on this occasion, the driver bowed to him and started driving carelessly. The situation wandered quickly. Kerr told the court that the doors were closed and the driver was moving an unknown direction. Kerr said he felt “panic” for his life, while Mavis said he feared it was “kidnapping”.
In this pair, the situation will be alarming for anyone – especially in instability. And this is without a very remarkable context. Kerr and Mavis were young women, who were trapped in a high -speed taxi in a foreign city, unable to remember the British equal to “000” or “911”. Kerr cited a cleared serial killer from his native Western Australia, who was thought to be a taxi driver.
When the taxi reached the Tokanham police station, the officers expressed doubts about the pair’s account. Kerr proved that he felt that the police were treating him differently because of his “skin color”. He experienced racism growing, and remembered on social media to this day. Kerr encouraged the officer to “put his shoes in the shoes of a woman”. Mavis described the later language of Kerr as his partner “to speak the truth”.
This is the wider context of the Kerr forbidden, blurring the main point: here a billionaire leaf footballer, drunk, was in the back of the taxi, and then as a bad language as police officers. Used to try to eliminate this situation. “I’m not paying some Fucking Diagie Kent’s Fucking window,” Kerr said in the footage played during the trial. On one occasion, Kerr showed his bank balance to the officer. He also threatened to “get Chelsea fucking lawyers on it”.
The ideology of the representative of this school of thought on X said, “Sam Kerr treated very badly. The sarcastic Australian News Outlet, Baitota Advocate, cuts the culture wars with his headline:” Kerr actually a half -pre -girl girl. For a very good treatment for a taxi fare at 3am, a police officer has been admitted to the shop. “
As last week’s evidence revealed, there is a competitive type of privilege in the game – there is enough material for people on both sides of the debate that can be claimed. Video footage is not flattering on car. Explains the context, even with excuses, its backers say.
Where it leaves Kerala, as Matlards Captain and Chelsea’s star striker remains to be seen. There is a lot of reliance on whether the club or country wants to chase sanctions, or that sponsors cut ties with a 31 -year -old child due to reputation damage. Kerr is rehabilitating a long -term crusade injury. She is expected to return to the pitch soon.
Is this after the Home Women’s World Cup, the end of the women’s football’s honeymoon in Australia? Or is it just double quality? AFL and NRL players are found in equal legal confusion on a regular basis, and are much worse than that (even though the captain of the Australian men’s cricket team is to survive in such a scandal. It is difficult to do). A player of the English Premier League has been accused of rape – the prosecution is currently postponed – and the game continues (for legal reasons it cannot be named).
Legitimate questions can also be asked if an issue of this nature needs to be developed to this point, two years later, after something – even worse – apparently could be dealt with at that time (Kerr finally. The taxi driver was paid. It was revealed in court last week that the police officer had subject to the comments of “fucking fools and white”, he said on the comments 11 months after the incident, not in his initial statement, not on the comments. He expressed his concern.
Perhaps this is the one that looks like a women’s football landscape – so much focus is more than his pitch. There is no little irony in the fact that interest in the game behind the screen has been cultivated. Reporting of the wall from the wall of a criminal trial was probably not exactly the same as the head Hunchos in football Australia.
Before the verdict, it was clear that things would not be the same, or for Australian football, is moving forward. It has to be seen the extent to which this event stains a shining carrier, or is attached to a margin. For many, in these polarized times, the answer to this question was already decided before the trial.
