A Porsche driving force accused of filming and mocking a dying policewoman who speaks to himself, according to his lawyers.
Mortgage broker Richard Pusey faces more than a dozen fees for the horrific fatal accident that killed four other people on the east melbourne road in April.
The 42-year-old man is accused of filming the scene on his cell phone to help Senior Sheriff Lynette Taylor while dying on the road.
“Now I fucked up my fucking car, ” he supposedly said at the time.
Lawyer Dermot Dann QC told melbourne Magistrates’ Court that his consumer speaks “essentially with himself” in the video.
“The way this rate is opposed to Mr. Pusey is the fact that there was a filming of the scene of the twist of fate and he said words essentially for himself,” Dann said.
Mr Dann said his consumer responded quickly to the challenge, but that a specific point of friction was the accusation of “shocking public decency.”
“We haven’t reported any cases in many years of legal history in this country,” Dann said.
The lawyer argued that the fee “must be established legally, it must be established in a factual manner.”

“If this rate can be solved, there is a very genuine prospect that the total factor can be solved,” Dann said.
He expects “most” to be removed from the rates.
Fitzroy’s boy allegedly recorded the scene on his cell phone instead of helping Sheriff Lynette Taylor as she died on the road.
Pusey gave the impression of a video link dressed in a green sweater and a blue mask.
“That’s good, thank you,” Pusey told Judge Donna Bakos after explaining the step in the court process.
It faces rates that add damaging speed, reckless driving, destruction of evidence, misappropriation of the course of justice, lack of permanence on the scene after a drug and lack of assistance.
Pusey sent back to his next presentation hearing only later this month.
