There isn't one at the moment. Mods may correct me, but if I remember correctly it's because the police asked them nicely to have no discussion here.

Nice Girl doesn't say whether Keli left the wedding with or without Duncan. It just covers them arriving. It's very weird that no-one mentions the possibility of her actions after the reception, I agree. Maybe Kehoe or Gaut ruled it out because there were a lot of credible witnesses (maybe in...

I think we can agree that we'd like to see Tegan found and Lane's sentence adjusted to something more appropriate for negligence than murder. It would be the best of the probable outcomes.

Yes, I thought that on Exposed she came across as a very sweet and caring person, but her evidence was only that she'd heard Keli mention an Andrew a few times. And the book Nice Girl (I got a ebook copy too now, happy to post any excerpts people would like to see) says that she only told police...

I agree that the new evidence found by the BoHI and Meldrum-Hanna is not very strong. There's a rush on now, after Serial the podcast etc, for every media outlet to have a true-crime investigation which changes public opinion. But I'm not sure Tegan Lane was a good case to pick. There are lots...

Sorry, just saw the mistake in my last post - there were two seed pods in Corryn's hair and one in the bag, for a total of three. Other things that bugged me about that 60 Minutes interview besides ignoring 2 seed pods: The ex-Scotland Yard guy complaining that within 2 days of Corryn's body...

Is the inquest information online, and if so does anyone have a link? I'd love to see it.

There were three seed pods found in Corryn's hair, and one found later in the body bag. The judge only excluded that last one because it hadn't been recorded at the time of examination and autopsy. Lloyd's lawyers said it could have been planted by police, the prosecution said it was just crappy...

Nice Girl seems like a pretty thorough look at the case, based on the excerpts posted here. I'm going to grab a copy if I see one.

I was a bit underwhelmed by this whole show. I don't think it takes much time to abandon a baby on a building site or similar, and it would fit with her excellent denial skills "oh I'll come back to pick her up after the wedding". But everyone seems to assume Lane brutally murdered Tegan and...

Oh I'd forgotten about the sketch, or rather, the lack of one! You're quite right. Lie detectors are really stress detectors, so they're not much use in an investigation. They're only common in some states of the USA. I don't have an opinion either way about the psychological assessment...

Yes, unless we think it was a Virgin Birth then some dude must have been the father. But that doesn't mean anything else about her story is true. And even if she is telling the truth about his name being Andrew Norris :rolleyes:, there's no guarantee that he gave her the right name to begin...

Doctors are often give minimal instructions for medications, even though they're supposed to be the primary source of information. And after a few renewals of the script they just ask "any problems with it?" and give you the same again. Responsible parents should check for gaps in knowledge and...

Here's Part 1 of a 60 Minutes interview with the parents, from 2016. That page should have a link to part 2 as well.

Just watched the first episode. I wasn't sure I'd be interested because there's no real mystery here and I didn't just want to hear Lane's lies. But the look into the coaches and parents who should have known about the pregnancies is very good. The mother seems like a very cold person...
