Milton Orkopoulos jailed
A follow-up to my blog post of 8 November 2006. Milton Orkopoulos was sentenced in Newcastle District Court yesterday to a maximum 13 years 11 months in prison on thirty counts of sex with, and supply of heroin and marijuana to, three underage boys between 1995 and 2006. Orkopoulos will be eligible for parole on 18 May 2017.
Rumours persist of a cover-up by senior state Labor Party figures prior to Orkopoulos' arrest. No official investigation into these claims has been convened.
