We (the Police and NSMBA et al.) need to do more than 'deter' trail sabotage
-- We need to put a stop to it !!!
There is zero chance she didn't try harm individuals. Trail sabotage can end
lives or seriously injure someone - as in paraplegic or otherwise injured.
What message does it send other saboteurs if she gets off easy?
Furthermore, we will never know to what extent she and her husband's vandalism
and her placing obstructions has hurt people. There are possibly many bike
accidents that have already been caused by her actions over the many years
since their 'war.'
Who can count the cost to people in time of work, expensive physiotherapy, or
minor injuries that discouraged them from riding the beautiful North Shore?
I hope a strong message is sent regarding this serious crime.
