Sergeant Kevin Johnson was my law instructor at Redfern Police Academy in 1977. He was a genuinely nice man as Ken Jurotte has written. I don’t know much more about Kevin unfortunately
No cadet would ever call him ‘Heavy Kevvy’ to his face of course. I had Sgt Johnson as a cadet instructor and again during the Const.1/c Course. A friendly and genuinely nice bloke. Lost track after the Con1/c Course. Very sad to hear that he’s passed. RIP Sarge.
