The individual accused of creating the “Pam the Bird” graffiti has entered a not guilty plea to over 200 charges and is set to contest these allegations in court.
The defendant is facing 209 charges, which include numerous counts of reckless conduct that poses a risk to life or causes serious harm, as well as charges related to criminal damage, theft, and aggravated burglary.
The magistrate reviewed the prosecution’s evidence and deemed it substantial enough to warrant a jury trial in a higher court.
When asked by Magistrate Mykytowycz, “In relation to these charges, do you plead guilty or not guilty?”
The defendant, Gibson-Burrell, responded with a firm “Not guilty,” while standing at the front of the courtroom.
The magistrate has scheduled a directions hearing in the County Court for March 3 to further address the case.
Gibson-Burrell was granted trial bail on the same terms and conditions, including that he is subjected to a $30,000 surety, a nightly curfew, cannot possess graffiti or abseiling equipment and must not travel interstate or overseas.
The accused vandal, who departed court dressed as Spider-Man last year, left the premises via a two-wheeled RipStik in front of dozens of media on Monday.
He declined to speak as he precariously travelled down Williams Street towards Flagstaff Station.
