Flutterby™! : Australian thought-crimes

Australia gets a little closer to prosecuting thought crimes: man faces pornography charges for writings in his diary:

Julie Sutherland, who represented Daryl Quick, 59, in a committal hearing at the Melbourne Magistrates Court yesterday, argued her client's "private jottings" were kept away from the rest of society "at all costs".

I wish I could get the full story, it sure sounds like this is ancillary to some other charges, but Deputy Chief Magistrate Daniel Muling has ruled that publication was unnecessary.
