Matej Radelic, 46, faced a single-day trial in the Broome Magistrates Court last month, after pleading not guilty to three counts of aggravated common assault in April. He used the ties to restrain the children — aged six, six and seven— after discovering them swimming in his pool at a property in Cable Beach on March 5. Video of the incident, showing children with their hands bound together, made international headlines. On Friday, Magistrate Deen Potter found Radelic guilty of two of the three charges, committed against two of the children. He was acquitted of the third charge, as one of the children was restrained for a shorter amount of time and able to leave the scene once he broke free. Force became ‘unreasonable’ A key point in the magistrate’s decision was whether Radelic’s use of force was “reasonably necessary” in the circumstances. He deemed it was not given the length of time — 37 minutes — two of the children were restrained for before police arrived. Describing the 46 year old as a “towering figure”, Magistrate Potter said the children’s distress was clear. He said the images circulating of the children bound together had been “seen in the historical context”, which had a “destabilising effect in the community.” Magistrate Potter said the incident had “a marked impact” on the children and their family, because of that context. “While he was on the telephone he described the children as being scared and crying,” he said. “Their distress should have been an indication. “Therefore at some point, [it must have] become blatantly clear that the continued application of force must have become unreasonable. “There’s an inescapable fact that the children were very and clearly distressed by their captivity.” FULL STORY- https://apple.news/AMk21UMR0TDeISyLglX7V0A
