Excerpt from an article in The Sydney Morning Herald on 3 August 2023:
Outside her large home in the seaside suburb of Merewether, Santina Manitta berated reporters and warned they would be shot for asking questions about the family’s property holdings at the heart of this saga.
As for her besieged son-in-law, she had this to say: “My son is a f---ing politician. F--- you and f--- them.”
Pressed over why her son-in-law had been sacked, Manitta could not offer any explanation.
“Truly, sincerely, I don’t give a s---,” she said. “Look, you’ve got to understand politicians are there because they’re f --- ing dumb.
“I told you if my son get arrested, good, I’m happy for him ... because he should never have been a politician. It is wasting his time.”
It was only hours after Crakanthorp was sacked as a minister and referred to the corruption watchdog for failing to disclose “substantial” private family holdings and breaching the ministerial code of conduct.
