Andrew O’Keefe apologises to court

Former Chase host Andrew O’Keefe has apologised to Sydney’s Central Local Court after an outburst last week in which he told magistrate Daniel Reiss, “You have no interest in justice.”

“I do wish to offer an apology unreservedly,” O’Keefe told the court today.

“My behaviour last time was quite disrespectful to the court.

“I come from a family that has experience in the judiciary; my father was a judge, I know how difficult the job is.”

Last week magistrate Reiss warned O’Keefe would risk contempt if he did not offer an apology to the court.

After his latest appearance, O’Keefe made no further bail application and his case returns to court in September for a hearing.
