An in-depth discussion of the first of the canonical attacks in the Mr Cruel series - the Lower Plenty Attack. This episode analyses the majority of what has been written or said about this case in the media and highlights many of the contradictions of these representations.
Mr Cruel is the moniker for a serial rapist, and most probably murderer, who terrorised Melbourne in the late 80s and early 90s and has never been caught for his crimes. In this first post, I start with an overview of the case and try to clear up some confusion about which crimes were actually attributed to Mr Cruel.Music by Yellowtree.
Lawyer X, Informant 3838: Nicola Gobbo was a barrister representing key players in Melbourne's gangland war. At the same time she was secretly passing information to Victoria Police. Nicola is at the centre of one of the biggest furors the Australian legal system has seen. It has sparked a Royal Commission inquiry into Police handling of informers. We discuss the very interesting issues here where the Police use of informants have come under investigation and one high profile Lawyer's ethics are questioned.All this potentially jeopardizing the conviction of some of Australia's most ruthless criminals.

Karen Ristevski vanished in June 2016. Her body was found 8 months later in Feb 2017 in bushland at Mount Macedon.Her husband Borce was found guilty of killing Karen and was sentenced to 9 years to serve a minimum sentence of 6 years.There was outrage, and rightly so. The sentence did not meet community standards. The Prosecution appealed the sentence and in early December 2019, the Victorian Court of Appeal re sentenced Borce to 13 years with a minimum period of 10 years.We quickly revisit the first episode to discuss the result.Your hosts:David Galbally AM QC is one of Melbourne's most respected legal authorities.

Her body was found 8 months later in Feb 2017 in bushland at Mount Macedon.Karen's husband Borce, was identified as the main suspect following a series of miscommunicated facts or lies about his whereabouts following Karen's disappearance. He would later be charged with murder and eventually plead guilty to manslaughter. He was sentenced to 9 years jail with a minimum of 6 years.This perceived light sentence caused public outrage in a community fed up with domestic violence and sentencing lengths.Your hosts:David Galbally AM QC is one of Melbourne's most respected legal authorities.
