    How entitled is Golris to think she can have her conviction quashed because she will have trouble getting a job in law.
    My understanding is to be admitted to the bar you need to be of good character.

      The reasons why she has not been charged are a bit comic but should be stated nevertheless. It is also connected to the reason that the Greens do not have a co leader at the moment.

    There are lots of families on low incomes really struggling to get by given the rising cost of living. Most of them struggle through trying to make ends meet. A small minority of them might shoplift for essentials - and in some circumstances they may be deserving of sympathy from the judicial system if it is for small items like food. Golriz in no way is in this catagory. She was in a $200,000 salary job and shoplifting luxury clothing worth thousands of dollars. She was also an MP and a lawyer who well knew exactly what she was doing and exactly what was wrong with it

    When her stealing from three shops was announced, the value of the goods exceeded a $10,000.00 threshold. But obviously, through wheeling and dealing with court prosecutors, this amount was conveniently dropped so that the severity of her charges was reduced. What a scam, just like Golriz herself.

    She, of all people, has no right to be excused or her conviction not recorded simply because of who she is. She knew full well what she was doing and would still be a thief to this day if she had not been caught!
    As a supposed refugee fleeing from Iran, a lawyer, and a sitting MP, she of all people should be expected to respect the country and society that has given her more opportunities than most, despite her membership in the Green Party.
    Possibly NZ has been duped into accepting people like her and offered too much. Her true character has finally been exposed as a deceitful, entitled, thieving grafter who has naturally gravitated toward The Green Party and the people she feels she can easily manipulate.
    There is one thing that is certain, back in Iran, if she was caught stealing there is no way she would be treated so lightly, and she certainly wouldn't scoff at her sentence and play the victim, or ever steal again.

      Good comment.. I always felt she should have been deported... now she should be made to pay retribution to the NZ taxpayer who has invested so much in her, the cost of her education, the very large salary she was paid as an MP, the cost of 2 legal trials. All this should amass to around 3/4 a million dollars plus ... all paid out of the taxes of hard working kiwis.

    She is trying to turn the morality of the conviction around. She can play the victim all she wants but it’s clear she is not one and she needs to grow up accept her guilt and punishment and at least that would show some semblance of a spine you can respect.
