Susan Neill-Fraser: Bulletin: Crucial hearing Friday, (August 12): Update by supporter Eve Ash on her change.org web-site. (Link below):


UP-DATE: (HEADING:  (August 10 , 2022): "1 day to go to High Court Special Leave hearing for Sue Neill-Fraser: "Sue needs a win this Friday when her legal team (led by Robert Richter QC) present to 2 High Court judges, so she gets her fair chance to Appeal to the full High Court in coming months.  Maybe an unstoppable SNOWBALL EFFECT adding to lawyer Jeff's charges being dropped this week (see link below), UNDERCURRENT TV series on air in Tasmania and possible parole for Sue. We await the published judgement for Jeff and suppression lifted so we uncover the "reprehensible" and "illegal conduct" of TASPOL referred to in the wrongfulconvictionsreport.org article. We must fight for an INDEPENDENT JUDICIAL INQUIRY into the death of Bob Chappell, so the actions and inaction of Tasmanian authorities are scrutinised and perpetrators are brought to justice. Poor Sue. It's not fair. IT'S TIME TO TURN THE TIDE."

FINAL WORD:  (Applicable to all of our wrongful conviction cases):  "Whenever there is a wrongful conviction, it exposes errors in our criminal legal system, and we hope that this case — and lessons from it — can prevent future injustices."
Lawyer Radha Natarajan:
Executive Director: New England Innocence Project;

FINAL, FINAL WORD: "Since its inception, the Innocence Project has pushed the criminal legal system to confront and correct the laws and policies that cause and contribute to wrongful convictions.   They never shied away from the hard cases — the ones involving eyewitness identifications, confessions, and bite marks. Instead, in the course of presenting scientific evidence of innocence, they've exposed the unreliability of evidence that was, for centuries, deemed untouchable." So true!
Christina Swarns: Executive Director: The Innocence Project;
