It has recently been reported that a Melbourne business by the name of “Stuart” who works in AFL circles allegedly saw alleged cop killer Dezi Freeman, in Cape Town South Africa on the 1st of September 2025, as reported by new.com.au
It was also reported that: “Shortly after lunchtime on September 2, the 74-year-old was walking north towards the waterfront at the corner of Dock Rd and S. Arm Rd when a man caught his attention.
“His eyes fixed on me. He was about seven metres away, but his gaze felt almost magnetic,” he said.”
There already is an inconsistency of dates, giving rise to Stuart being an ‘unreliable witness’.
Is it Monday or Tuesday (1st or 2nd of September) that Stuart allegedly saw Mr. Freeman?
After returning to Melbourne on September 4, Stuart contacted Crime Stoppers where later, a Victoria Police spokesman dismissed the claim.
Freeman would have had to flee Australia by air, as a seven day window between the alleged shooting of the two officers and alleged Cape Town appearance is too short for sea travel.
IF Freeman fled by air, then it’s a catastrophic failure by the federal government.
Airport facial recognition has been in Australia ‘officially’ since May 2011.
Therefore even if there was a passport with Freeman’s face with a false name, he should have been stopped at the gates.
Freeman should have been assessed as a flight risk from the moment he fled.
If he wasn't, then that's a failure of government.
If caught or he's still alive, will Freeman ever have a ‘fair trial’?
Even if there is photo/video proof of an incident, in every criminal case magic word is ‘alleged’.
In the Rule of Law in Australia there is something called the 'presumption of innocence'.
The presumption of Innocence is a principle that states the prosecution must prove guilt, and the accused is considered innocent until proven otherwise.
The presumption of innocence ensures individuals will be punished by a court, only in accordance with the law. Until a person is found guilty, they are known as the ‘accused’. An accused can be held on remand (in prison) while awaiting trial, but even if they are denied bail, they are considered innocent until proven otherwise.
The onus of proof of the guilt of the accused is on the prosecution. The prosecution must prove every element of the offence, rather than the burden shifting to the accused to prove their innocence. The standard of proof in criminal trials is beyond reasonable doubt. The prosecution must satisfy this high standard before a person can be found guilty. In criminal trials, judges or juries decide whether the prosecution has proven its case beyond a reasonable doubt.
The mainstream media, e.g. Rupert Murdoch’s Herald Sun stated that Dezi Freeman is a “cop killer” without any court conviction or trial.
