Nova Peris has accepted an apology from a NSW chiropractor who posted an expletive-laden racist tirade to the Facebook page of the outgoing Northern Territory senator two months ago.
NSW Central Coast man Christopher Nelson, 64, also a former NSW Liberal Party member, was charged in June over the abuse.
Ms Peris says she accepts an apology from Nelson and considers it to be "genuine and remorseful", she wrote on Twitter.
"I hope he reconciles (with) his family," she said.
