Unsafe Convictions? Peter Breen on Two Infamous Australian Cases

from Real Crime with Adam Shand · host Podshape

Lawyer and former NSW politician Peter Breen argues that two of Australia's most controversial murder convictions deserve fresh scrutiny. He explains why he believes the convictions of Phuong Ngo for the murder of MP John Newman and Steven Wayne "Shorty" Jamieson for the murder of Janine Balding were unsafe, raising questions about indemnified witnesses, disputed police interview techniques and evidence that, he says, points to serious miscarriages of justice.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
