Half A Body & Homeless: There Are No Words to Describe this Level of Inhumanity by ACC
There are simply no words to describe this horrific absence of conscience, ethics or any form of humanity by the Accident Compensation Corporation . . . along with the seemingly uncaring attitude of "watchdog" agencies and politicians.
Lawyer specialising in ACC cases, John Miller, however, had these descriptors: "Shocking. I saw it on TV and I was appalled at ACC doing that. They've got considerable resources; something like $50 billion."
Watch to the end of the NewsHub segment to see the complete disregard with which the matter is being viewed by ACC management, the ACC Minister, Associate ACC Minister, and the Prime Minister himself.
ACC staffers told NewsHub they'd "advised her in an email in December" - an email Bev McIndoe says she never received. She says she pleaded with ACC not to make her homeless, finally asking if she was to "go and live under a bridge". McIndoe says their attitude to that was, "Do what you want."
