Certainly names named by Coster this morning in Hipkins, Mark Mitchell and Brian Roche that there was previous knowledge by those parties regarding McSkimming’s affair. Perhaps regarded as more of a rumour throughout the timeline before it was substantiated?Something about Coster’s character has me leaning towards his memory, though I do think he acted hugely in favour of McSkimming for the role he was pursuing and hurrying the process along when a complaint had been made

Not quite enough to cost Hopkins or Mitchell their roles.
Coster must rue the day he ever met McSkimming

His memory seemed fine - just he bought it up all informally and it came back to bite him.

I think he comes from a good place Coster in his morals and he’s graciously fallen on his sword while others are dodging. I think many can accept mistakes, perhaps not the victim here in this woman, but provided people own those mistakes, I think that holds weight to some. It certainly does to me. I thought it was interesting his view on how quickly Collins was to jump to police corruption and get the feeling they’ve been gunning for Coster as the face of their soft on crime stance. I personally thought social policing deserved a chance as what’s been done throughout time hasn’t worked and was a worthwhile experiment. He’s not without some blame in parts, but I actually think he’s a loss to the police community

I don't know about that. He knew since 2022 at least and hadn't formally done anything about it, even as head of Police, with what are very serious allegations.
