NSW abolishes good character references in sexual assault sentencing cases
NSW abolished good character references as a mitigating factor in sexual assault sentencing Monday, though the government's broader reforms stalled in the upper house. Attorney-General Michael Daley reintroduced the full bill after the Coalition and Greens backed a narrower version. Victim-survivors Harrison James and Jarad Grice led the #YourReferenceAintRelevant campaign supporting complete abolition across all offences.
