Tragic clues; Giving the dead their day in court.
Court in the Act - Ein Podcast von The West Australian
Who, how and why. Put brutally, those are the three questions a coroner has to answer when investigating a death. Seemingly simple questions. But sometimes so hard to answer. Sometimes impossible. In the coming weeks and months in Western Australia, headlines will be writ large about inquests set to be held. Cleveland Dodd – the young man who died by his own hand in the custody of WA’s Department of Justice. JC – the young indigenous mother shot by a police officer in Geraldton. And Lisa Govan – the young woman last seen outside a Kalgoorlie bikie den in 1999. And then never seen again. All inquiries which all the families involved hope will provide some answers, some truth out of death. Joining Tim on Court in the Act is Noor Blumer – director of Blumer’s lawyers whose practitioners are well practised in representing those hoping for answers out of an inquest.
