Prosecutors in their case against the New South Wales police officer who allegedly tasered 95-year-old Clare Nowland will allege the officer’s actions were “grossly disproportionate” and “excessive” given the great-grandmother’s age and ability, according to court documents.
The revelation comes in a police statement of facts on the incident released by the NSW supreme court on Wednesday, the first time the full details of the alleged Tasering of the great-grandmother have been revealed.
