The Exoneration Papers - Sue Neill-Fraser

Never faltering in her claim of innocence, Sue Neill-Fraser was released on parole in October 2022, after 13 dark years in a Hobart prison for murdering her partner Bob Chappell. But her rightful fight to quash her wrongful conviction continues. This book reveals the entire shocking case of Sue Neill-Fraser, whose crime was invented and her conviction protected by the Tasmanian devils of the entire legal establishment, including the police, the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, the political leadership, the Legal Profession Board and the Integrity Commission. Based on speculation without evidence, her conviction has drawn condemnation from over 36,000 petitioners, lawyers, barristers and much of the media. In Vol.1, investigative journalist and author Andrew L. Urban traced the first stage of this shocking miscarriage of justice; in Vol.2 he reveals the full extent of a catastrophic failure of Tasmania's legal system. Now, after two dismal appeals that followed the trial, there are still plenty of grounds to appeal again - and to have the conviction quashed. There is hope, but it needs the swell of public pressure to disarm the power of Tasmania's legal 'club'.
