WASleuth;There was a doco about the case on telly which showed what the police had done and the evidence they had made up about LR killing is wife at the house but all the evidence was fabricated. The judge was scathing of the police.
The Judge was also scathing of Lloyd Rayney and I quote: "The accused has engaged in discreditable conduct, including knowingly arranging for illegal telephone interception, making a false declaration and giving deliberately false evidence to a court while on oath."
I refer you to the Judges summary; http://www.supremecourt.wa.gov.au/_files/Judgment_Summary_Rayney.pdf
I don't believe the "pods" were planted IMHO they were "missed in the autopsy"
If the pathologist could I.D. grains of sand that came from 2 different areas of Pert he isn't going to miss seed pods that size especially that particular pathologist
