How Common Are Miscarriages of Justice in Australia?

Professor Stephen Cordner AM has been at the forefront of forensic medicine for decades.

His expert evidence has played a role in some of Australia’s most controversial cases, including those of Lindy Chamberlain and Kathleen Folbigg.

He joins us to discuss his book Wrongful Convictions in Australia: Addressing Issues in the Criminal Justice System and why he believes wrongful convictions are a significant and largely unmeasured problem in Australia.
