Interesting emaileI have become aware of……
—–COPY CORRESPONDENCE FROM DOC
Dear Roger MORRIS,
In addition to above advice you have on 27/2/25 formally disregarded not only my lawfully withdrawn consent to treat the property but the “reasonable” excuses I attempted to explain to you, not just as a landowner, but also a trained medical doctor, and a qualified forensic expert and most importantly my genuine concerns and direction as a sworn Queensland Justice of the Peace (qualified). For you to not only ignore my repeated request to leave and arrange a formal private discussion regarding the concerns and evidence I clearly told you about, but also to ignore the advice of a JP regardless of your personal opinion demonstrated a failure of your authority to remain responsible and protect the public, and that you have no respect for any opinion outside your own.
The Program is frequently quoted as saying “100% of properties will be treated…” to the public this shows a premeditated decision to disregard ANY valid concerns to not treat a property even if Fire Ants are never an immediate presence or threat.
To utterly focus on the concerns and your ability to take them seriously: you also remain under a 2023 Supreme Court Undertaking (Justice Bradley) to procure a considered response in writing to these public concerns; something which remains questionable at best, and appears to have been conveniently overlooked.
The fact that you have contracted qld police to “keep the peace” in the absence of any threat certainly from myself, immediately justifies my presence and lawful validity as a Justice of the Peace and suggests that it is possibly YOU, that is presenting an immediate threat to the public in certain circumstances. Therefore it is possible you have contracted qld police to protect yourself, given you may be knowingly breaking the law or disrupting the Peace, and fear for your own safety knowing landowners retain the lawful right to question or obstruct you under certain conditions, and that you expect to create “unrest” amongst the public when you force entry or treatment. As above, have you not declared you will “treat 100% of properties…”? So who then can raise any concerns? 0%
Indeed, you are recorded as citing a pre-prepared comment, laminated with plastic I believe, warning the landowner of the punishment for obstruction of yourself… but in my case you advised “I am hereby declaring you have obstructed …” when actually NO obstruction had occurred at all but when you utter such (prepared) words you have thus prepared the police officer at hand to accept your declaration as an “authorised officer” and hence make an arrest, citing that you have officially been “obstructed”, when you had not. This, especially when seen to be laminated on paper before you arrived on-site, clearly shows your premeditated intent to declare an “obstruction” regardless of events so that you can achieve your objective and use the police to enforce “non compliance” despite peaceful actions being displayed to you.
This evidence alone, is proof that you have no intention of considering any genuine concerns from anyone, let alone a Doctor or a JP because you have incriminated yourself by laminating your own pre-meditated response which is always to the detriment of the person standing in front of you.
It is there likely that you should have considered my opinion when I attempted to give you a “reasonable” excuse under the Biosecurity Act to obstruction or when simply asked to leave and keep the peace until the matter is sensibly discussed, but you acknowledged and clearly disregarded this advice, namely knowing that it also came from a qualified medical doctor to whom a health and safety opinion should at least be considered as per my Duty of Care. You therefore instructed an armed police office to jump a fence and enter a property, along with your team (with no immediate Biosecurity problem), no Fire Ants present, no history of Fire Ants, previously treated to threaten both the Public AND environment unnecessarily – in the absence of any visible threat, and therefore clearly disrupt the peace using an armed officer of the Law with possibly a 9mm gloc and/or taser to “keep the peace”.
For this, which may resemble a criminal offence/s, it will be you held accountable as a living person under the name Roger MORRIS and not “team leader” etc, and you will not refer your entrusted responsibility to any entity that has contracted you, something expected under Criminal Law, nor shall you direct your responsibility to any entity whom asked you to act outside the Law, should it be Criminal in nature, unless you claim forcefulCoercion. Under the Law you retain personal responsibility if you knowingly commit a criminal act, especially when warned prior, or direct others to do the same.
Furthermore, you clearly advised on camera that you accept personal responsibility for the additional 8 individuals (plus helicopter) whom you directly, or indirectly instructed to ignore all other reasonable lawful advice and as such you have willingly accepted full responsibility not only for yourself but for the actions of those you have instructed. It remains my (and others) opinion that you had seemingly instructed the additional persons who were to Trespass to “not listen to his [sic Dayman] advice, nor speak to him or respond in any way”. They also appears to be instructed not to clearly show their ID cards and to refuse electronic recording (whilst they recorded the very one else).
In doing so you have also allegedly removed their lawful, constitutional rights and potentially coerced them into participating in unlawful activity against their free will, or ability to seek proper constitutional advice. It remains my (and others) opinion that these individuals allegedly feared for their job and possible safely if they disobeyed or exercised their free will. This, if substantiated would constitute a criminal charge to the person/s making such a threat.
On Camera, when referencing the Lawful notice on the entry gate warning of trespassing, you have stated to the effect that you disregard “Federal Law over State Law”. Further you made the comment “we don’t do Sovereign crap” indicating in a single sentence you are willing to disregard the Law to which you are knowingly bound, and suggesting the human rights of those before you amount to little or nothing.
I therefore reserve my rights under State and Federal law, as a living person and primarily as a sworn Queensland Justice of the Peace, and as per your verbal statement on 27/2/25 that I am “free to make a complaint if you [I] don’t agree”. Having said that, you willingly continued to ignore my advice and concerns and continued to instruct others to do the same when you were afforded every peaceful opportunity to show restraint and listen seriously to the concerns I presented to you.
I understand on the same day a concerned citizen was arrested defending similar rights in Samford, based on the same “approved procedures”.
Your recorded actions demonstrate that you arrived at the property with a premeditated intent to break the law and disregard the peace in preference to your own limited interests.
Further, when advised of the notice of $50,000 fee per person per offence to Trespass against permission at Flying Fox, you have not only acknowledged this notice/offer to contract but you have verbally accepted and taken responsibility for the cost. After showing me a copy of your insurance you are recorded as having then said “send me the bill”, that being for yourself and the additional 8 individuals (plus helicopter) who entered the property against the stipulated conditions and clearly under your acknowledged instruction (after quoting your authority to do so) for everyone to follow what you said.
You had arranged to meet me at “0830-1130hrs” but you are responsible for allowing or not checking the aerial baiting which commenced at 0710hrs without any warning, prior discussion, or notice as required by CASA and the Supreme Court Undertaking (2023). Had there been an emergency of any sort nobody had the ability to contact the pilot as you did not arrive until approx 1130hrs, and there is no way to maintain safety communications at all. The McDermott contracted pilot was filmed dropping baits (against permit conditions) over numerous waterways and in proximity to people, vehicles, property (houses) and especially livestock. This also attracts a fee of $50,000 per implicated person, per offence, and remains your responsibility.
Clearly, there is no regard for aerial safety nor any means to avert a serious safety concern if it occurs. You, aware of this, knowingly arrived hours after the aerial baiting was completed. I suspect your electronic correspondence would readily confirm you were fully aware, but ignored all safety concerns.
Therefore, on camera and in person you have accepted and openly disregarded both lawful liability and in the case of Flying Fox financial liability for your actions, and those others persons under your direct instruction.
Your actions are a clear cut recorded example of you willingly abusing the authority granted to you, in a premeditated manner, and in a way that risks the health and safety of the public, the environment, the waterways, and the entire Biosecurity structure that you claim to represent. I am aware that
I am not an isolated concern but just one single (well documented) example of your wider activities which appear to go unchecked, and generate income allegedly exceeding billions of dollars which Queensland taxpayers deserve to be aware and be reminded that their basic rights still exist and have not been bought out by any corporate entity running a program purporting to stop ants at the expense of human rights.
For this, you should face the same disciplinary action that you have recently used to threaten the public (and make arrests?) to pursue your own interests.
Justices of the Peace swore an oath to keep the peace and protect the rights of the public. Sincerely,Dr Dayman Steptoe JP(qual)
