I’m not familiar with the laws in Australia, but do they not allow a video deposition just in case? Thanks!
The problem would be that he couldn't be cross-examined. The defence would have grounds for objecting that his evidence therefore wasn't admissible.

No, I shouldn’t think so. They would want him to be cross-examined. This would need to occur live.

I'm expecting fiction as well. But make it good.

So no Walk the Dog!! 2: Electric Boogaloo in our future.

(imo) IF EP is found guilty she should not be able to profit from this.

The Commonwealth Proceeds of Crime Act should ensure that any profits are taken from EP if she decides to write a book (if she is found guilty).


Take Schapelle Corby for example – famed international drug smuggler – who has been a household name since her arrest in Bali in 2004. Just two years later Corby released her bestselling book My Story, which ultimately saw $128 000 seized by the Director of Public Prosecutions as it was deemed a proceed from her crime.

Do the crime, get paid to write the book?
