It is impossible to believe that then Police Minister Michael Ferguson wasn’t aware of accusations of child sex abuse against Paul Reynolds before affording the disgraced cop a full police funeral.
Documents have been released showing Minister Ferguson’s office was notified of the allegations two days before the police funeral took place.
If information relating to a police officer committing child sex offences comes in, the Police Minister would have been made aware of it. Why else was the information provided?
Minister Ferguson must face the media today to explain why he tried to cover up the abhorrent actions of a paedophile cop.
