Luke Moore was wrongly jailed after senator Kristina Keneally's policeman son made false allegations he threatened to kill a detective An investigation into misconduct by senator Kristina Keneally's New South Wales policeman son has been taken over by the state's independent law enforcement watchdog. The Law Enforcement Conduct Commission will look at how Constable Keneally came to make a false statement that led to an anti-corruption campaigner spending three weeks in jail. Constable Keneally wrongly accused self-styled 'justice warrior' Luke Moore of threatening to kill a detective during a telephone conversation earlier this year. Mr Moore had secretly taped the call but officers from the fixated persons investigation unit did not listen to the recording until long after his arrest. Once police heard the recording they acknowledged it contained no death threats and all charges were withdrawn. The LECC previously had oversight of an internal police inquiry into Constable Keneally's conduct but a spokesman for the body said it would now conduct its own examination. 'The Law Enforcement Conduct Commission has taken over the investigation of this matter from the NSW Police Force and will make a report to Parliament in due course,' the spokesman told Daily Mail Australia. Luke Moore spent three weeks in a maximum security prison after Constable Daniel Keneally made false accusations against him.

Mr Moore (above) has a long and colourful history with authorities, having campaigned against police strip searches and established the isuepolice.com website That move comes as Ms Keneally, the Shadow Minister for Home Affairs and deputy leader of the Opposition in the upper house, declined to speak about her son's predicament. 'Kristina Keneally is not going to comment,' a spokeswoman for the senator said. Mr Moore has been offered a $170,000 compensation payment for his ordeal after Constable Keneally falsely claimed he had threatened to kill another cop. The 34-year-old has already rejected the offer, telling Daily Mail Australia he is seeking $800,000 compensation for him, his family, and potentially a website he runs called isuepolice.com. An internal inquiry conducted by an officer within Constable Keneally's local police command found that he had not acted with due care and diligence in relation to the statement he made against Mr Moore. 'Internal inquiries have been finalised and management action has been taken,' a NSW Police spokeswoman said. 'The matter is being independently reviewed and, as it is subject to proceedings, it is not appropriate to comment further.' Ms Keneally, the Shadow Minister for Home Affairs and deputy leader of the Opposition in the upper house, declined to speak about her son. 'Kristina Keneally is not going to comment,' a spokeswoman for the senator said Constable Keneally's conduct was raised by One Nation MP Rod Roberts, a former detective, in the NSW Upper House on November 24.

'The LECC will take over a matter when police investigations are reported to it and an assessment is made that the special powers of the LECC to take evidence or to investigate would be appropriate,' a commission spokesman said. 'These investigations usually result in a report to parliament.' Mr Moore has been sent a letter of apology on behalf of the State of NSW which would be liable for any compensation claim he made against NSW Police. 'The State accepts SC Keneally was in error when he said that you wanted another Police officer "Dead",' the letter says. 'The State regrets what was said. 'The State also regrets not having investigated your assertions that you had not threatened the life of another Police officer more expeditiously.' It also 'acknowledges that more timely investigations would have discovered the audio recording you made contradicted SC Keneally's assertions.' The Commonwealth DPP dropped all charges against Mr Moore after it became clear the threats attributed to him in Constable Keneally’s statement were not recorded.

He describes himself as 'Australia's Number 1 police and political corruption expert', a human rights advocate and 'justice warrior'. A decade ago Mr Moore took advantage of a banking error that allowed him an unlimited overdraft and got away with spending $2.1 million of St George's money. He recently completed a law degree and is working on expanding his evolving business that offers to resolve civil claims over wrongful actions by police. Mr Moore called Newtown police station about 8.30pm on February 24 and spoke with Constable Keneally about his concerns regarding matters including unlawful strip searches. Unbeknown to Constable Keneally, Mr Moore recorded everything they said. Mr Moore revealed he was the founder and CEO of isuepolice.com and Constable Keneally accessed that website during their chat. The website contained references to a detective at Goulburn. Constable Keneally subsequently filed an intelligence report and made a statement about the telephone call alleging Mr Moore had made threats against that detective. He claimed Mr Moore told him he wanted the detective 'gone' and 'off this planet' and that when he asked Mr Moore what he meant he replied, 'Good as gone. Dead.'

Advertisement About 12.50pm the next day Mr Moore was arrested in Nowra on the NSW South Coast by officers from the fixated persons investigation unit. He was refused bail after being charged with using a carriage service to threaten to kill and two counts of using a carriage service to menace, harass, or offend. Mr Moore strongly denied the allegation made by Constable Keneally and was adamant the recording of the conversation would prove his innocence. While in the cells at Nowra police station, Mr Moore says he was called a 'princess' by the custody manager. He broke a clock over his head in frustration and was also charged with damaging or destroying property. Police executed a search warrant at Mr Moore's home and seized items including a mobile phone but did not immediately access the recording he claimed was on it. Bail was again refused at Nowra Local Court on February 26 and Mr Moore remained behind bars at the South Coast Correctional Centre for 24 days until March 19. The Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions dropped all charges in June after the recording of the conversation between Mr Moore and Constable Keneally was located and found to contain no threat against the detective. On August 27, a magistrate awarded costs of $10,000 to Mr Moore and a further $1,840.50 to Legal Aid. The destroy or damage charge related to the clock was also withdrawn on October 27 and police were ordered to pay Mr Moore $19,000 in costs. Constable Keneally's conduct was raised by One Nation MP Rod Roberts, a former detective, in the NSW upper house on November 24. 'Any similarity between Moore's recorded conversation and Keneally's statement is purely coincidental,' Mr Roberts told parliament. 'The two do not marry up. One is a complete fabrication, and that is Keneally's statement.' Mr Roberts, who served in the Criminal Investigation Branch, said Mr Moore was the victim of practices known as 'loading' and 'verballing' in the 'bad old days' of NSW policing. Mr Moore lodged a complaint which was investigated internally and a finding was made against Constable Keneally that he had not acted with due care and diligence in making his statement. Constable Keneally is pictured as a schoolboy with his mother 'I am aware of a practice - although I never partook of it myself - of loading and/or verballing suspects,' Mr Roberts told parliament. 'This is the best example I have ever seen.' Mr Roberts said the investigation into Mr Moore's complaint was not conducted independently and and should have resulted in findings beyond him not acting with due care and diligence. 'Due care and diligence?' Mr Roberts said. 'He has fabricated evidence. As a result of that, an innocent man spent three weeks in custody.' Mr Roberts called on police to produce to parliament documents related to Mr Moore's prosecution, including those created by Constable Keneally. 'Why was Keneally not subject to criminal charges?' he said. 'Why was he dealt with departmentally with a smack on the wrist? This goes to the heart of the administration and operation of the NSW Police Force.' All rights reserved for this news site (dailymail) and under his responsibility
