Defence barrister Greg Walsh told reporters Dawson was “very upset” by yesterday’s verdict,

Walsh asserted that it wouldn’t be right to send Dawson to jail, considering the health issues the former school teacher is currently facing.

“He’s been diagnosed with dementia,” Walsh said.

“Jail will be much harder for him … he’s got problems with his hips and knees too.”
Does Mr Walsh think that prisons are not able to look after convicted prisoners with medical conditions??? :rolleyes:

Prisoners get some of the best medical care, far better than what you receive in a public hospital today!

Well, cry me a river! I'm sure there are incarceration facilities that are a good match for his needs.

BTW, does Australia have mandatory sentencing for murder? What should we expect in that regard?

If he had been in jail the last 40 years, perhaps they would release him in his old age.

Whoops! Now that is a trade off. He enjoyed his freedom in his middle age. He can't have it both ways. Too bad.

It's just amazing how health issues appear at a time like this :rolleyes:

What does anyone care what his old age medical issues are? Lyn was never given the chance to develop her own old age medical issues.

I am sure his lawyer must know he is bleating a refrain that will fall on deaf ears.


About 2 in 5 prison entrants (40%) and prison dischargees (37%) reported a previous diagnosis of a mental health condition ...

Well. It is Chris Dawson's fault that he is facing prison at this time in his life. He can hardly complain, he should have given himself up 40 years ago. No point whinging now. Nobody's problem except his.

And his brothers should have seen this coming and got him into serving his sentence much much earlier, instead of slipping and sliding around for decades hoping and believing that he'd got away with it.

I believe NSW has a fairly standard 20 year sentence for murder.

OMG here he admits the diamond from Lyn’s engagement and eternity rings were used in JC’s!
He would have wrung them from her cold dead hands... the petty meanness of these brothers was a talking point around the Rugby fields.

At least, I hope she was dead when he removed them.

It takes a certain kind of mindset to pop those rings into his pocket, zip down to the jewelers, chose another setting, pay to have it done, bring them back and place them on a 16 yr old's hands. And JC knew they once were Lynns.. a peculiar and distinctly off arrangement. Marilyn and Paul, and Peter and his wife knew , too. No body said a dicky bird!

Out rageous.

Episode 18 of the Teacher's Trial is up.

Aptly titled 'GUILTY'.

but it only goes for just over 3 minutes.

I wonder if a wheelchair may soon be on the horizon.
Well in time for the sentencing :rolleyes:

It is just a 3 minute announcement that Dawson was found guilty.
Oh sorry the 3 minute bit didn't register on my brain :)

I bet they're working on another full length episode.
