An investigation undertaken by ICAC found former Speaker Kezia Purick to have been responsible for corrupt conduct and serious breaches of public trust.
Purick rejected the findings and took action in the Supreme Court after claiming that she was denied natural justice.
[3] Fleming generated controversy when he addressed a rally in Alice Springs, held in the aftermath of the death of Kumanjayi Walker, a Warlpiri man who was shot by NT police officer Constable Zachary Rolfe.
The statement led to accusations of bias, and Fleming, accepting that his words had been ill-chosen, stepped aside from involvement in matters concerning the case.
The allegations, made by the NT Police Association, the Country Liberal Party and Rolfe himself, suggested political interference by Chief Minister Michael Gunner or Police Commissioner Jamie Chalker.
