On 6 February 2014, Newman had commented to journalists that lawyers who represent bikies “are hired guns. They take money from people who sell drugs to our teenagers and young people. Yes, everybody’s got the right to be defended under the law, but you’ve got to see it for what it is: they are part of the machine, part of the criminal gang machine, and they will say and do anything to defend their clients, and try to get them off—and indeed progress their dishonest case. They are paid by criminal gangs”. Bleijie later remarked that Newman was “referring to Hannay Lawyers, based on the Gold Coast” and that he too was “quite disturbed by their advice and fear campaign”. He also noted that he agreed with Newman’s comments. The case was settled out-of-court in 2016.

In an interview with the ABC, Walter Sofronoff QC called for Bleijie’s resignation, saying that Bleijie had betrayed McMurdo’s confidence and was “unethical”.
