If any parent is reading this forum, or young man/girl as well. Know your rights. If this man has offended against you seek counselling. You can claim this as a victim of crime.
I strongly recommend it. Even if you think you are over it, talk to someone about it. Thinking your son/daughter is over it is not enough.

Rusty, Maybe you should re-read from the start: I may be misunderstanding your post here texas, but are you debating whether or not you'd like Jarrett to be an influence on your son? THE GUY IS A CONVICTED PEDOPHILE!!! You cannot be for real..........It is spelt peodophile, Thought I made it fairly clear that I am a strong supporter against this behaviour to the point of being violent against any offender.Sorry, meant to post this ages ago, but I searched the spelling "Peodophile" on the net and it didn't show. It kept asking me do you mean "Pedophile". Now I admit I am slow, and probably quite a bit behind most people's intelligence, however you make yourself out to be the God Almighty of these boards, but you are an ordinary everyday goose like me. ;D ;D ;D |

For those of you with an interest in the ongoing investigation into Trevor Jarrett. I believe he has been remanded in custody again following a further court appearance last week, bail refused. Will be set down for sentencing some time in December. As far as I know he has been in custody most of this year.

I heard, disturbingly that Trevor Jarrett had been out at the U23 tournament in Sydney today following his release from prison. Is there no way that we can warn this maggot off from Australian baseball? The dialogue below is from a newspaper article that was sent to me last year, do we forget so quickly? I hope not.
HE CALLS himself the "Jerry Maguire of Australian baseball" and the sport's most experienced Australian agent.
His sales pitch to young male clients promises a chance at winning lucrative overseas contracts playing in professional leagues, telling them his management is "an opportunity you don't want to miss".
But what Trevor Lindsay Jarrett has not told potential recruits and their parents is that he was convicted in 2005 of possessing child pornography.
Until 30 days ago, when the police came calling, the Australian Baseball Federation was also unaware of his past.
The federation, of which Jarrett, 63, is a lifetime member, also did not know his name was on the Child Protection Registry or that he was required to report regularly to Kings Cross police.
Yesterday in the Downing Centre Local Court, Jarrett pleaded guilty to providing false or misleading information when he told police he was unemployed and had no affiliation with any club or organisation in which children take part. He pleaded guilty to two counts of failing to comply with reporting obligations under child protection laws.
Jarrett, of East Sydney, came to the attention of police when they stopped a car he was travelling in on the F3 at Ourimbah. The 17-year-old driver said Jarrett was helping him sign a contract in the US to play in the pro baseball league.
Jarrett was given a nine-month suspended sentence for possessing child pornography.
The magistrate, Antony Townsden, ordered Jarrett undergo a psychiatric assessment before sentencing on April 3.

If he shows up down in Melbourne at a tournament I'm sure someone from somewhere will give him the flogging of his life.

This is a disgusting topic to have on the forum but a well needed one,only in the fact that more often than not in our society these sort of people end up being protected by our so called laws which prevent people from knowing their identities.Name them,shame them,n warn others.As a parent to a Beautiful little man just over 3 'n a half years of age,I'm unable to put into words what i would do to anybody like this who came even close to him,or any child for that matter.I do not condone violence,But it make's me sick why we protect these people so often with our ridiculous privacy laws.Many a parent will thank the forum for posting this thread,myself included.Congratulations to you Richo ,unconditional love is what you get from them buddy,Just blows ya mind.

No-one actually believes the ABF didn't know about this in the first place - they all ran for cover.
If this is true about him attending the 23's, the current ABF hierarchy need to be f*****

gj...let me assure you this is true. Further to that he sent out a text message last week to many scouts, myself included, alerting us to the fact that a certain player had been released. My opinion is that he will be back amongst the baseball community with gusto, if we let him. Unbelievably, to me at least, is that he still has some supporters???

They did run for cover when it came out, however they also made some big promises about what would be done etc in the future. If the guy is back on the scene after a stint away, then the ABF can show leadership and somehow hopefully prevent him from operating or alert families of what his background is. THEY MUST DO SOMETHING. I am with Buzz on this, this sort of stuff pi$$es me off no end, but I am thankful it is discussed on here so we can be aware of this guy's past. |

So he is back operating as an agent. For F**** sake, I cannot believe he is allowed to operate or that a parent would want their child anywhere near him. I find it hard to believe that he still has supporters - what has to happen for this to go away? If he is operating in our sport again the whole thing is F*****!!!!!!!!!! |

It’s an understandable response, but pointless to be making physical threats against Jarrett. Any vigilante act of violence, worse still, would make him into a victim and thereby be seriously counterproductive.
The ABF visits these pages. I would call on the organisation to take the following course of action immediately.
Again formally warn Jarrett (and any other known offender) off attendance at any under-aged baseball event (preferably ANY baseball event). Issue a press release to all state baseball bodies, to the Australian Baseball League and to all clubs and associations via the BVIT web system listing all child sex offenders known to the ABF and making a public statement on paedophilia.
Put a process in place whereby police will be called immediately if he shows up any such event. Details of this process should be included in the release so that there is no ambiguity about what should be done and so that there is the assurance of full ABF support – legal or otherwise.
The release should also encourage any approached person – whether scout, official or player – to block any emails from Jarrett (or any other known offender) and to place his (or their) telephone number on the “Do Not Call” register.
The brazen nature of this person’s behaviour – and his recent refusal even to comply with court orders – suggests that he will seek to re-establish himself in the baseball community. He is already trying to do so. He needs to be told – publicly, and in no uncertain terms – that he is a “persona non grata” in baseball and around any activity where young people might be involved.
The message, simply, is piss off. Crawl back under the rock where you belong.

Just wondering, is the U23's an ABF event at all? No mention on the website yet there is for the Ladies and Provincial tourneys. I thought 23s was an "invitational" organised by NSW baseball.
Perhaps NSW baseball staff should be made aware he is wandering around the tourney and have a quiet word in his shell like that he is not welcome. The U23s themselves are of course all grown men, but there must be quite a few kids watching the games at BOP.

It would be interesting to know what conditions are imposed on him as part of his release.
Does anyone know?

Rules and Laws do not apply with these sort of people.The sooner all of us realise this the better.You could be Mike Tyson,yet still this would not deter Scum like this.All they see is what THEY, want.I make no apologies, or, threats of violence.AS a Parent or an Individual,I would expect all of us to protect all children,not just our own.Consequences,well, that's what happens if you don't take head to the warnings!! Nobody's tallking revenge here,Just a healthy "ON YOUR WAY OR ELSE"

If this is true about him attending the 23's, the current ABF hierarchy need to be f***** spot on GJ, the ABF knew all about TJ before, during and still continuing of his sickening behaviour and have done nothing. Now is the time for them to step up and grow some nads and put out a release about their plan of action or tell us why the non-action. They have shoved this under the carpet for years, as Gough said, It's Time!!!! |

The problem is the government punishes them and then protects them from everyone, wraps them in cotton wool, gives them counseling and tells them everything will be ok.
I know of a convicted 19yo male sex offender the was in Queensland. The local community up there ran him out of town.
Government intervened and relocated him, his parents and sister down to Langwarrin (my home town). The interesting thing is they moved them to a house 3 doors down from a child care centre which is also across the road from a primary school. Heellooooooooo are they normal? According to the government he is rehabilitated. THERE IS NO SUCH THING !! They may as well have bought him tickets to a wiggles concert.
Bring back the death penalty I say !!!

For the sake of baseball and all involved in this sport, especially the thousands of minors participating, let us hope that the ABF can be proactive and take a stance. Better late than never!!
We will see exactly what the ABF think about the 'protection of minors and young adults' if and when they do come up with some policy and direction to all other state associations in regards to this guy and any others that may follow.
Message to someone..anyone in Southport....please stand up and take action FFS.

Thank you Al....you are obviously passionate on this issue. I know you & your family placed a huge trust in this man and were betrayed. Let me assure you all from my inner dealings with the ABF that the people in authority are also justifiably disturbed that he moved within our community and will do what ever is possible to minimize any involvement he has in Australian baseball. Please be assured that I am not defending anyone here and that I am sickened by anyone convicted of offenses against our young & innocent. Let me also say that I have been warned to tread lightly as personal litigation may result from any comments I make publicly. Well, I'm prepared to deal with that if indeed it happens. My conscience cannot let me sit on the fence on this issue, irregardless of the individual, or the consequences. What I will do though is urge everyone not to make this a "witch hunt" on the ABF. They must now act within the guidelines of the legal process. I have no experience in the legalities of this complex issue but as a person who prides himself on knowing right from wrong, morally & legally, I can not sit idly by while a person who has been placed on a child protection register continues to circulate in our midst. As I am currently employed by the ABF as a coach at the MLBAAP I feel that I may be compromising that position by speaking publicly on this issue. If it transpires that I am sanctioned in any way as a result of my stand I will happily stand aside and go back to driving trucks. No big deal. But I do urge anyone out there who feels strongly about this issue to voice their opinion to the authorities, not in a vindictive manner but objectively, so as we can reach a solution that will see our youth allowed to progress through to adulthood in a safe, wholesome manner. That is my wish. The thought of any adult inflicting his will on the youth who place their trust in that person, for their own deviant satisfaction is something that I find totally abhorrent and will not stand by and let happen.
