The synopsis does not reflect peters talent. Calling peter a out of work actor is like calling Ronald Reagan a to 2 bit B movie actor. Peter is much more, he is in work with our countries major TV network, He is smart and a bit of a geek, who else be an actor/director/producer and go after IT patient abuses for a hobby. Go for it peter.

Indefinite Imprisonment For Web Site Content 484

Posted by kdawson on Tuesday June 17, 2008 @11:10PM from the throwing-away-the-key dept.

Suriken writes "In an unprecedented move, the New Zealand Solicitor General is seeking an indefinite prison sentence against American businessman Vince Siemer for alleged breach of an interim gag order now more than three years old. Siemer was jailed for six weeks last year for refusing to take down a Web site accusing the chairman of an energy company of suspect business practices. Because he still refuses to take down the site, NZ Solicitor-General David Collins QC wants to lock up Siemer indefinitely, merely for asserting his own free speech. From the article: 'Siemer's [defense] claims the Solicitor General's action is barred by double jeopardy. He also maintains he had long ago proven in Court that the injunction was incorrect in fact and law but that the judge simply ignored the law and evidence. He says the gag order violates his freedom of expression guarantees in these circumstances.' Here's more coverage from an NZ television station."
