Ex- top cop charged over child abuse, bestiality material
August 05, 2025
|The Star
NEW Zealand’s former deputy police commissioner lost the right to anonymity yesterday after he was charged with possessing child sexual exploitation and bestiality material.
Jevon McSkimming was arrested in June and charged with eight counts of possessing objectionable material, but the courts had prevented the media from reporting his name or other details of the case.
Appearing in Wellington District Court yesterday, McSkimming opted not to seek an extension of the suppression order.
His lawyer, Letizea Ord, told Judge Tim Black, “there is no further application in respect of name suppression. It's accepted that it can lapse today.”
He is yet to enter a plea.
Asked as he left court if he had a message for the public, McSkimming said: “No.”
