Although being found guilty, incredulously, in relation to charges arising from an incident outside the Channel 9 office in Melbourne in 2021, Sewell was given an 18 month Community Corrections Order, and is required to do 150 hours of unpaid community service. > Jail was deemed inappropriate given Sewell’s previously unblemished criminal record, his service in the Australian Defence Force, excellent employment record including community work with at-risk youth, and his responsibility to support his family. > Sewell spoke to the Lying Press both before and after the trial, and expertly avoided traps set by the hacks eager for juicy soundbites.
