I've passed it on to the Royal Commission.
What strikes me with this along with Jackson's testimony is the pompous display of importance, (in his mind), of the "depth" of their investigation into the scriptures used so that they do things "just so." They/he misses/miss the big picture of how that just doesn't matter at this point in time. What matters is how to handle abuse cases today, and no one really cares about an in depth review of bronze age law. It was appropriate for that time, but not today. The point is lost on him to the disbelief of the justice and the onlookers. **sigh**

'...is this a grown man's signature..?'
Al least you can see it is G W Jackson. As for the witness, it's anyone's guess who he/she is?
If you should not be able to discern the actual letters of an adults signature, then no, it is not the signature of a grown-up. Personally, I prefer to discern the actual letters of the alphabet.
