Urban recounts how his life is changed when he is drawn into the field of wrongful convictions after \nreviewing a documentary about the case of Hobart grandmother, Sue Neill-\nFraser, convicted of murder - without evidence. As he probes further, he comes\nacross other cases and finds police investigations marred by tunnel vision; lawyers \nflouting the rule of law chasing convictions; courts admitting inadmissible (and \nfalse) forensic evidence; the Crown withholding exculpatory evidence; and worst\nof all, prosecutors making up murder scenarios. Driven by disturbing discoveries over five years of research and writing -\ncovering five extraordinary cases: Sue Neill-Fraser, Gordon Wood, Henry Keogh, \nDavid Szach, and Gary Nye - Andrew interviews specialist legal academic Dr \nBob Moles and others as he charts the damning list of errors. Bringing together his writings and interviews on the subject as well as his correspondence with legal \nacademics and politicians, including Attorneys General, Andrew lists action points \nthat if implemented would help reduce the incidence of wrongful convictions.\n\n\nABOUT THE AUTHOR \nAndrew L.
