He doesn't have to prove that someone else did it. The onus of guilt is on the Prosecution. The defense only has to create doubt in the minds of the jurors. This may include suggesting that others killed Allison. The trial can be stopped technically at anytime if the DPP decided not to proceed...

This case reminds me of another case in nearby Gatton in the late 19th century in which two girls were repeatedly raped and along with their brother and horse killed. At the time, the town was bent on blaming an outsider but it would seem that just like Toowoomba in the 1970s there were a gang...

I do remember some kind of inquiry or report during the last year in which Victorian parole officers were critisised for not reporting breaches of serious violent offenders, some of whom went on to commit further actual crimes. There does seem to be a problem in Victoria though of inadequate...

They have to apply to have a number put on a list of numbers that they can ring. The person they want to phone also has to agree. I'm not sure that he would be allowed to have Toni's number on his list . He could be accused of interfering with a witness. All calls are recorded and sometimes...

http://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/queensland/nurses-inquest-witness-describes-seeing-men-in-gang-bang-with-two-women-20130409-2hitz.html Clearly, many people knew something about what had happened to these two unfortunate women.

I really wonder what happened to that phone. It being so close and unlocated is also very suspicious. If she had really walked off with it it would not have pinged so close or it should simply been still at home. So clearly it has been concealed at that time close to the property. Now a random...

Yet for all his efforts the texts still come across as stilted.

Everything is recorded in court. Private converations are usually ignored but are recorded. Consultations with legal team are usually done before or after sessions in another room.

More proof that he knew full well that Allison was not coming back. He never would have dared ring TM if he thought that Allison would find out. I'm afraid that G really didn't want a divorce, probably for financial reasons. The 20th was far too early for him to have resigned himself to her...

I really do wonder why he felt the need to get rid of Allison's phone? There must be a reason. Or perhaps it's as simple as him thinking that she wouldn't leave her phone behind and he wouldn't be able to pretend to text her. It is strange too that they couldn't find it with all the searching. I...

Toni explains in one of her statements that when G told her that Allison was missing she immediately was worried that she would lose Gerald over it. She saw Allison as her direct competitor in a war for Gerald. She was not secure in her relationship with Gerald. Initially, she thought Allison...

I agree. It seems to be that Toni was afraid of being personally confronted by Allison.

I think that they have been flying by the seats of their pants the whole time and still are! I cannot think of anything that they could say at this point that would convince anyone that Gerald didn't do it. They may question the evidence piecemeal but there will be no escaping some individual...

I didn't know about Bwana's refusal but in answer to your question I think no. The item would remain in the hands of the owner or a search warrant would not be required to begin with. I do recall several searches at Nigelaine's. Who remembers that their garden shed was searched and items...
