A magistrate has blasted a decision for the police officer accused of tasering a 95-year-old grandmother not to appear in person before court over the incident.
The 33-year-old NSW senior constable who tasered a great-grandmother has been suspended and a worker at the aged care facility has received a death threat.
The NSW Police Commission says the force is treating the tasering of a 95-year-old woman in a nursing home by an officer "with the utmost seriousness".
