Welcome to the Bream Fishing Project Podcast, where we dive deep into the world of competitive bream fishing. In this episode, we bring you riveting conversations with top anglers from the recent tournament.   First up, we sit down with Judd Kirkland, who clinched second place in the non-boater division. Join us as Judd shares his tactics and success fishing alongside Cam Whittam, including his early bag-out on yellow fin using 2 1/2 inch grubs.   Next, we chat with Liam Allan, the non-boater division's first-place winner, celebrating his inaugural victory in an ABT event. Liam recounts his prefish experiences, including pre fishing with previous round winner Marlon Thompson.   Transitioning to the boater division, we catch up with Mark "Crommo" Compton, securing third place. Despite a challenging round in Gippsland, Mark shares how he strategically turned things around, offering valuable insights into his competitive mindset.   Then, we hear from Mario Vukic, the formidable second-place boater, who noticed crucial improvements in water quality since holidaying during the Christmas season. Mario unveils his prefish strategies, emphasizing the importance of "ruling in" and "ruling out" techniques, alongside a pivotal observation that led to his impressive results.   Finally, we spotlight the unstoppable winner, Mark Healey, who's been on a winning streak, dominating the last four qualifying events. Discover how Mark's meticulous prefish preparations paved the way for yet another triumphant performance.   Tune in to the Bream Fishing Project Podcast for expert analysis, insider tips, and captivating stories from the forefront of competitive bream fishing.

The collapsed trial of Liam Allan reveals a widespread problem in the legal system, which criminal defence lawyers have been warning about for some time. Liam was accused of rape and sexual assault, but his defense was that any sexual contact between himself and his former girlfriend was consensual. The Prosecution's case relied heavily on the ex girlfriends account, which is a common situation in sexual assault allegations that often occur in private settings without any independent witnesses.It took two years from Liam's arrest for his trial to proceed in the Crown Court. Prior to the trial, his lawyers had repeatedly asked the Prosecution to disclose text and social media messages between Liam and his ex girlfriend from her phone. Despite clear guidelines on disclosure, the officer in charge of the case failed to hand over this potentially useful information to the defence team. It wasn't until the trial started that this material was brought to the attention of the Prosecuting barrister, who ordered it to be handed over immediately. The messages cleared Liam of all charges. His ex girlfriend and accuser had messaged him asking for sexual contact and spoke of a desire for violent sex and rape fantasies. In other messages to friends, she stated that no crime had been committed.To their credit, the Crown dropped the case as soon as he became aware of this material. It also made a public statement acknowledging "a very serious miscarriage of justice" had only narrowly been avoided.You can also listen to my interview with Liam on my audio book 'You Are Accused', available on Audible.

Liam Allan's life was turned upside down when he was falsely accused of rape. It wasn't for another two years that tens of thousands of text messages proved his innocence. Why did it take so long? More links and details at https://www.innocence.fm/

In this episode, Lauren and Tara return to the issue of disclosure in the CPS, and talk about the CWJ and EVAW coalition judicial review case, RASSO 2025, and the cases of Liam Allan and John Worboys. Trigger warning - this episode discusses rape. 

In this episode, Lauren and Tara set the scene to explore the End Violence Against Women Coalition's judicial review challenge against the CPS, and how pre-trial disclosure failings lead to the collapse of cases, including that of Liam Allan in 2017.

“Give us your phone or we’ll drop your case” is just one of the arguably sensationalist headlines that appeared in the media in the last couple of days in response to the news how police and prosecutors use information from the mobile phones of people who report rape or other sexual offences. This rightly or wrongly has caused some consternation and confusion. There have been by way of background two high profile rape cases which provide some context. There is the case of Liam Allan who faced being convicted of rape. Disclosure of text messages from his accuser suggested that the sexual offences she complained off were arguably consensual. The content of the messages painted a very different picture apparently to the one that she had given as part of the prosecution. There is the case of Alex Hepburn the ex-Worcestershire cricketer who has been convicted of rape. He had set-up a sexual contest “game” on WhatsApp which undoubtedly was of interest to the jury trying his case when considering his claim that his victim had consented to the sexual offence that he had subjected her to. The relevance of these two cases is two-fold: Consent Social media and electronic information used as evidence Looking at consent this is defined by section 74 Sexual Offences Act 2003. Someone consents to vaginal, anal or oral penetration only if s/he agrees by choice to that penetration and has the freedom and capacity to make that choice. Consent to sexual activity may be given to one sort of sexual activity but not another, e.g.to vaginal but not anal sex or penetration with conditions, such as wearing a condom. Consent can be withdrawn at any time during sexual activity and each time activity occurs. In investigating the suspect, it must be established what steps, if any, the suspect took to obtain the complainant’s consent and the prosecution must prove that the suspect did not have a reasonable belief that the complainant was consenting. The realities of modern life mean that many of us communicate, and some more than others, by means of text and other forms of communication. Inevitably such communications potentially become evidence viz evidence of guilt or innocence. The rape cases of Allan and Hepburn are good examples of where electronic communications in its widest sense have formed evidence that points to innocence or guilt. Concerns about access to private communications are understandable. It is readily understood why victims may find it intrusive and a further invasion of their privacy. It follows though that the contents of mobile phones, for example, may help convict abusers. Conversely, they may assist justice in disproving an allegation. The Crown Prosecution Service has advised that mobile phone data, or social media activity, will only be considered by the police when relevant to an individual case.   The CPS has made it clear that for an investigation to proceed and be fair for both complainants and suspect, all reasonable lines of enquiry must be pursued. This is not new and the policy has not changed - mobile devices will not be needed in every case - but when they are, there is explicit guidance that only material relevant to a particular offence may be pursued, to minimise unnecessary intrusion. This applies to all offences and is not restricted to allegations of sexual offending. More detailed information and advice will be found on the CPS website at: cps.gov.uk The position as advised by the police and CPS should be welcome because it reflects modern life and the  necessary steps to ensure  that evidence is secured to assault in the conviction of sex offenders. The vast  majority of offences are committed behind “closed doors” which mean there are inevitably no witnesses, and so the police and prosecution are dependent on medical evidence, and that lies in the form of electronic communications.

Before the #MeToo movement, publicly speaking out against sexual harassment was a much riskier exercise. Calling out behaviour could find you isolated and even alienated in certain industries, both professionally and personally. Despite these risks, that's exactly what our latest guest did – challenging a senior solicitor over a now infamous message he sent via LinkedIn. In episode 12 of The Hearing, barrister and self-proclaimed feminist Charlotte Proudman sits down with Kevin to speak about how she dealt with her face being splashed across the front pages, being trolled by keyboard warriors and even being labelled a 'feminazi'. Charlotte and Kevin also cover the feminist movement, gender parity, women's only events, her 'inspiration' Catharine MacKinnon, and the difficult subject of disclosure around rape cases.

Pilot episode where we look into the most pressing issue of our time - Disclosure. To help me understand this crisis better, I spoke with Michael O'Brien, who wrongfully served over 11 years in prison for murder and Liam Allan himself. I was also joined by his lawyer and 2018's Barrister of the Year, Julia Smart. Maya Chopra gave me an insight into the crisis at magistrates Court, and Danielle Reece-Greenhalgh spoke with me about the possible ways forward.
