Dear Editor / Journalist,
I invite you to examine a documented case of police accountability failure in New South Wales that raises serious questions about investigative conduct, prosecution decisions, and oversight mechanisms.
Between 2021 and 2025, I reported sustained online impersonation, identity theft, and device intrusion to NSW Police. The reports were not investigated as cybercrime. Instead, I was prosecuted three times by the same agency. Two prosecutions collapsed in court. The third produced minimum-penalty convictions for distributing images that were footage of the very intrusion I had reported.
The person I reported (@kandykingX / Issac Rushton) has never been charged by Kings Cross Police Area Command.
Key Facts:
• 99-Day Anomaly: A police iASK communication-record search returned zero results for the alleged week. Police held the nil-result for 99 days before charging me. It was in the brief of evidence as Item 9. The search page does not identify a carrier.
• Three Prosecutions — Mixed Outcomes: Same complainant (@kandykingX), same prosecutor (Nicholas Nicolas), three different Officers in Charge. The first produced two convictions and five dismissals; the second ended not guilty after hearing; the third was withdrawn and dismissed.
• Same-Day Welfare Referral: On 25 June 2025, I complained to Federal Cabinet Minister Tanya Plibersek at 3:33 AM. By 10:00 AM that same morning, Kings Cross Police initiated a cross-border welfare check on me in Queensland. The officer's written reason: "the gentleman has made further complaints to a Federal Ministers Office." Released GIPA records do not record the Triple Zero call said to have prompted the referral.
• Evidence Destruction: OIC Constable Dellenty admitted in GIPA Internal Review REV-2025-0858525 that case file information was deleted after the prosecution's dismissal. Potential breach of State Records Act 1998.
• Oversight Failures: Every tier of NSW oversight (LECC, Inspector of LECC, Minister for Police) closed the matter without engaging the documentary record.
Why This Matters
This case is not about whether I am guilty or innocent of the charges. It is about whether the documented decisions warrant independent scrutiny:
• Why were my cybercrime reports not investigated while I was prosecuted three times?
• Why did police charge me 99 days after receiving documentary proof the alleged call did not occur?
• Why was a cross-border welfare referral initiated on the same day I complained to a Federal Minister?
• Why has every oversight body closed the matter without examining the documentary evidence?
What I Am Asking
I am not asking you to take my word for any of this. I am asking you to examine the documented record. Every claim on the website is sourced to official records obtained under the Government Information (Public Access) Act 2009 (NSW), the Right to Information Act 2009 (Qld), court transcripts, or third-party forensic reports.
