The story of Dr Colin Manock, the former Chief Forensic Pathologist for South Australia is one of long term failure of the SA legal system.  This was a man who was unqualified to give evidence in courtrooms and yet he did so, time and time again, with some 400 criminal cases that many say should be re-opened.  It is the largest volume of potential wrongful convictions in a single jurisdi...

Today is part 2 of the story of former high ranking gang member Jayme Rodgers. Jayme was a gang guy from a pretty young age. Growing up in a home without much love or stability meant Jayme would look outside the home for acceptance and belonging. This would sadly mean that he would fall into the gang life, he not only fell into it but threw himself into it. Jayme lived and breathed gang life, he b...

Paula Kensu is the wife of Temujin Kensu, the man from Michigan serving a life sentence for a murder he says he didn't commit. Paula and Temujin did not meet at a bar, on tinder or through friends, Paula an...

Recently I caught up with Jnr Salas after a massive decision was recently made in the court of appeals and it seems some in this case will be forced to answer some seriously tough questions. Evaristo Salas was accused of firing two shots into Jose Arreola’s head in Sunnyside in November 1995. He was tried as an adult and convicted by a jury of first-degree murder three days after his 16th birthday...
