Three men, Daniel Muston, Ryan Peter Marshall, and Anthony Raymond Mitchell, have pleaded not guilty to charges of behaving offensively in public and knowingly displaying Nazi symbols outside the Sydney Jewish Museum. They claimed their actions were a joke, mimicking a skit by comedian Ricky Gervais. The incident occurred shortly after a deadly Hamas attack on Israel, raising questions about the timing and location. Magistrate Jennifer Atkinson expressed skepticism over their defense, particularly given the sensitive context. The men face a maximum penalty of 12 months' imprisonment or an $11,000 fine if convicted. The case highlights the tension between freedom of expression and the impact of offensive gestures in sensitive contexts.
