Childcare Worker Cleared of Charges After Exposing Pedophile Ashley Griffith

Yolanda Borucki, who reported one of Australia's worst pedophiles, was found not guilty of computer-related charges due to insufficient evidence.

Yolanda Borucki, a childcare worker, was acquitted of charges alleging unauthorized computer use to share confidential records with the media.
Borucki had reported Ashley Paul Griffith, a former colleague and convicted pedophile, to authorities in 2021, leading to his eventual sentencing to life in prison for over 1,600 child abuse offenses.
The prosecution failed to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that Borucki used a work computer without consent or caused harm by sharing the information.
The magistrate highlighted the lack of evidence connecting Borucki's actions to policy violations or psychological harm to families involved.
Borucki's defense called her actions 'heroic' and criticized the charges, emphasizing the need for an inquiry into how Griffith was allowed to work with children for decades.
