Laos methanol deaths result in minimal fines

Two hostel workers in Laos received fines of only $185 each for destroying evidence related to the methanol poisoning deaths of Australian teenagers Bianca Jones and Holly Bowles. The families discovered the court verdict through a group chat with other victims' families rather than being notified by Australian authorities. Additionally, a party room for the Greens in Parliament House has blown out from a $500,000 budget to $2.2 million, with Senate President Sue Lyons declining to take responsibility for approving the cost increase.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
