Corrupt police officer Daniel Keneally, who is the son of former NSW Premier and federal Senator Kristina Keneally, has avoided jail after being found guilty of fabricating evidence which led to Luke Moore being jailing for 3 weeks.

What makes it worse is that Daniel Keneally is also being in investigated for second matter were another innocent man, Clint Foster, spent 5 months in jail so Daniel Keneally is a serial offender. But more on that in a minute, I’ll deal with the Luke Moore matter first.

To top it off Daniel Keneally perjured himself like no tomorrow at his trial, which clearly showed he had no remorse for his crimes, but he was still only given community service.

On the face of it you would think that Daniel Keneally was protected by Magistrate Rodney Brender because of who his mother is.

But I think it has more to do with the fact that numerous NSW police conspired to protect Daniel Keneally and were possibly involved from the start in stitching up Luke Moore. That claim is proven by the fact that police swept Luke Moore’s compliant against Daniel Keneally under the carpet.

Daniel Keneally falsely claimed in a police statement that Luke Moore threatened to kill a police officer during a phone call to the Newtown Police Station in February 2021. Luke Moore was arrested and jailed for 3 weeks before he was granted bail. What saved Luke Moore is that he recorded the phone call which proved Daniel Keneally’s police statement was full of lies.

On the 1st of December 2021 I published an article titled “Senator Kristina Keneally’s police officer son, Daniel, is facing over 10 years jail for making a false statement and having an innocent man jailed” which starts off:

Senator Kristina Keneally’s police officer son, Constable Daniel Keneally, has been accused in the NSW parliament (24/11/21) of attempting to stitch up Luke Moore for crimes he did not commit and if proven true Constable Daniel Keneally could be facing more than 10 years in jail.

The day after it was raised in NSW parliament, who ordered NSW police to hand over all documents relating to the matter within 21 days, the NSW police offered Luke Moore $170,000 to settle the matter which he rejected.

What makes this article powerful is the evidence below which includes Constable Daniel Keneally’s police statement, the recorded phone call, a video of the NSW parliament discussing the issue, the offer by the NSW police to settle and their apology and admission of wrongdoing and other documents.

On the 13th of August 2022 I published an article titled “NSW Police are sitting on a recommendation to charge Kristina Keneally’s police officer son Daniel with fabricating evidence” which starts off:

Police Officer Daniel Keneally broke down and confessed to fabricating evidence when he was interviewed by the NSW Law Enforcement Conduct Commission (LECC) who recommended criminal charges against him.

Daniel Keneally’s fabricated evidence led to the jailing of Luke Moore even though no crime had been committed and it has been raised in the NSW Parliament which is waiting for a report from LECC.

My source tells me that the criminal charge recommendation and a report from the LECC were sent to the NSW Police before the federal election but so far they are refusing to lay charges. The delay in charges could be political interference of some type given Daniel’s mother is former NSW Premier and Federal Senator Kristina Keneally or it could be that if the police charge Daniel Keneally it will have a domino effect and other police will face charges as well so the police are refusing to charge him.

On the 8th of September 2022 I published an article titled “NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb’s lies are exposed on video by protecting corrupt police officer Daniel Keneally” which starts off:

NSW Police Commissioner Karen Webb was exposed on video protecting corrupt police officer Daniel Keneally who lied in a police statement to have innocent man Luke Moore jailed. Commissioner Webb was put under the blowtorch at the NSW Parliament Budget Estimates hearing on Wednesday (31/8/22) by MP Rod Roberts.

The old saying that the cover-up often becomes a bigger crime than the initial crime is in full swing in this matter and it’s just a question of how many other police officers Keneally takes down with him. There is already an open and shut case to charge Daniel Keneally with lying under oath and having someone falsely charged etc and his boss who helped cover it up.

But after last week’s budget estimates hearing there is a prima facie case to charge Commissioner Karen Webb with concealing a serious indictable offence for her role in the cover up. And at the same hearing Commissioner Webb threw Deputy Commissioner Dave Hudson under a bus when she said he looks after the Professional Standards Command implying he was responsible for dealing with what Keneally has done and the cover up.

For Police Commissioner Karen Webb to stick her neck out to protect Keneally, which is on video below, takes the cover-up to a whole new level.

The second video below reinforces a key part from the first video and was published on YouTube on Wednesday.

On the 4th of October 2022, after almost 2 years, Daniel Keneally was finally charged. (Click here to read more)

The fact that it took almost 2 years to charge Daniel Keneally shows there was a cover-up in progress and it was only after it was exposed in the NSW Parliament (as per the above videos) were charges laid.

On the 1st of February 2024 the ABC reported:

The disgraced police officer son of former senator and NSW premier Kristina Keneally has avoided jail time for fabricating evidence that put an innocent man behind bars. Daniel Keneally, 25, appeared to hyperventilate after he was handed a 15-month intensive correction order on Thursday and sentenced to 200 hours of community service.

“This is a crime against public justice,” Magistrate Rodney Brender told Sydney’s Downing Centre Local Court.

Keneally was convicted last year after the court found he falsely claimed a man threatened police during a phone call to Newtown Police Station in February 2021. The court heard that the caller, Luke Moore, rang to complain about a strip search.

But in a formal statement, Keneally falsely quoted Mr Moore as saying he was coming for a Goulburn detective “when he least expects it” and wanted him “off the planet”, saying the policeman was “dead” and “good as gone”.

Mr Moore was charged with using a carriage service to menace and threaten to kill, and he spent three weeks in custody over the phone call. But the police dropped the charges and apologised after he produced a recording of the call that proved he did not make the threats Keneally attributed to him. (Click here to read more)

Daniel Keneally is appealing the judgment with his lawyer Paul McGirr telling the media outside court “his client maintained his innocence and that the matter was “far from over”. “There’s expert evidence to show how fallible the mind can be. You, me, everybody, we all make mistakes,” Mr McGirr said. (Click here to read more)

Yes, we all make mistakes but not all of us tell numerous lies in a police statement that results in an innocent man being jailed and then back it up by committing perjury in court like Daniel Keneally did.

As the saying goes “Let the punishment fit the crime.” and it clearly doesn’t in this matter so NSW Magistrate Rodney Brender has a lot of questions to answer as to why he has been so lenient on Daniel Keneally.

In January 2023 it was reported that Daniel Keneally’s handiwork led to another innocent man Clint Foster spending 5 months in jail before he managed to get bail as per the below video:

Clint Fosters lawyer’s website says:

Son of former premier Kristina Keneally, Daniel Keneally is in trouble again.

Daniel Keneally, a NSW Police officer, is now facing a second investigation into his professional conduct as a police officer. This comes after Keneally was previously charged with fabricating evidence in a case where a man was sent to prison.

The latest case involves Keneally siding with off-duty police officer Detective Sergeant Michael O’Brien (no relation to our principal solicitor) following a minor traffic collision that escalated into a street brawl between O’Brien and Clint Foster on March of 2021.

Despite Foster alleging that O’Brien had assaulted him, Keneally charged Foster and kept him on remand for five months unable to obtain bail.

Monetary sums awarded

Magistrate Rana Daher awarded $55,000 in costs against the police after reviewing CCTV footage that showed who instigated the altercation and physical violence. The magistrate stated that the investigation was conducted in an “unreasonable and improper manner” and fell short of optimal standards.

Keneally failed in investigating due to the following:

• Interviewed Detective Sergeant Michael O’Brien and his partner together instead of separately
• Took no photos of Foster’s injuries at the scene.
• Misrepresented CCTV footage.
• & Did not interview the two key witnesses. (Click here to see on the lawyers website)

When the media are reporting that Daniel Keneally has been convicted and sentenced for stitching up an innocent man for 3 weeks jail, Luke Moore, they should also mention that Keneally is under investigation for stitching up another man, Clint Foster, for 5 months jail.

What has happened to the police’s investigation into Daniel Keneally stitching up Clint Foster is unknown at this point, but I suspect it has been swept under the carpet.

Daniel Keneally is reportedly no longer a police officer, but it raises many questions. Was he sacked and if so, when? Or was he allowed to “resign”? When did he stop being paid by the NSW Police? Have the NSW Police investigated other arrests and charges made by Daniel Keneally to see if he also falsely arrested and charged other people?

I understand Luke Moore still has a compensation claim against NSW police before the courts and has reportedly also launched a civil suit against Daniel Keneally and a NSW Police detective.

If Luke Moore hadn’t recorded the phone call with Daniel Keneally he could have been jailed for years and might still be in jail now.

Daniel Keneally has so far been allowed to walk free and if that’s the end of it, then it is another cover-up at the highest level in law enforcement and politics. There needs to be a public inquiry into the whole scandal because Daniel Keneally was protected until he couldn’t be protected any longer.
