Chamberlain 旗s 陪審/陪審員団 change in wake of Folbigg 容赦

Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton wants 陪審/陪審員団s to be 許すd to lean on a パネル盤 of impartial 専門家s in コンビナート/複合体 事例/患者s after watching another mother wrongly 罪人/有罪を宣告するd, then 容赦d.

Kathleen Folbigg was 認めるd an 驚くべき/特命の/臨時の 容赦 in June, two 10年間s after a 陪審/陪審員団 設立する her 有罪の of three counts of 殺人 and one of 過失致死 over the deaths of her four babies.

進歩s in science and a 連合 of 主要な scientists 結局 led the 明言する/公表する's former 裁判長 to find reasonable 疑問 about her 犯罪.

In her first comments since Ms Folbigg's 容赦, Ms Chamberlain-Creighton told The Australian Women's 週刊誌 science was over the 長,率いる of the 普通の/平均(する) person sitting on a 陪審/陪審員団.

"We're giving 陪審/陪審員団s very コンビナート/複合体 tertiary and even PhD-level 法廷のs to decipher and decide whether a person is 有罪の or innocent," she said in the magazine's November 版 published on Thursday.

"It's not their fault if they get it wrong."

Ms Chamberlain-Creighton spent four years in 刑務所,拘置所 for the 1980 殺人 of her baby Azaria until the girl's jacket was 設立する in a dingo lair 近づく Uluru, torpedoing the 起訴 事例/患者.

Ms Folbigg waited even longer for freedom, にもかかわらず 抗議するs of her innocence and the 現れるing understanding of some 極端に rare genetic disorders afflicting two of her children 存在 known during a 有罪の判決 review in 2019.

It took until a second review in 2023, 長,率いるd by former NSW 裁判長 Thomas Bathurst, for 当局 to 受託する the former Hunter Valley 歓待 労働者's 犯罪 was far from watertight.

"Kathleen's 事例/患者 has once again really slapped this (gap in understanding) in the public's 直面する," Ms Chamberla in-Creighton said.

She called for 陪審/陪審員団s to have 接近 to a パネル盤 of impartial 専門家s in コンビナート/複合体 事例/患者s to advise on the 有効性,効力 of the 証拠.

パネル盤s of 専門家s are いつかs used in 刑事裁判所 事例/患者s and are bound to give truthful 証拠 but those 専門家s are often called by the 起訴 or defence to 控訴 their 各々の 事例/患者s.

"A lot of people think that if you go to 法廷,裁判所 and tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth, you'll be believed, 司法(官) will be served," Ms Chamberlain-Creighton said.

"But that's not the way it 作品."
