Jared Savage: Herald's investigative journalist discusses material in Jevon McSkimming case
Manage episode 495104189 series 2882353
A legal battle has swayed in media's favour - now allowed to report child sex exploitation and bestiality imagery were allegedly discovered on work devices of former Police Deputy Commissioner, Jevon McSkimming.
They were allegedly found while he was under a separate criminal investigation, the details of which can't be legally reported.
He resigned suddenly in May after being suspended on full pay since December.
The Herald's Jared Savage told Ryan Bridge details had to be kept secret after McSkimming's lawyer filed an urgent application in the High Court.
He says media organisations banded together to successfully challenge the injunction stopping reporting on the nature of the material.
