FALSELY CONVICTED: How Australia’s broken legal system is locking up innocent people

Walkley Award-winning journalist Neil Mercer joined Gary Hardgrave to discuss his book Falsely Convicted, drawing on childhood memories of notorious serial killings in Perth and Sydney to examine Australia's deeply flawed legal landscape. Together, they expose how forensic failures, racial prejudice, forced confessions, and institutional self-preservation leave innocent Australians wrongfully imprisoned for decades.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
