I do agree that the person responsible deserves more than a slap on the wrist. The aircraft used looked pretty distinctive, and learning to fly RC aircraft well takes some practice, so I doubt he was a newby to the hobby. Somebody within the model community would know him and the police spotlight would be firmly on them, so it should only be a matter of time before he's ratted out.

I think he was more specifically referring to Perth.
