31/7/2014: SHADOW OF DOUBT CAST OVER CONVICTION: FOXTEL, AUG 3
Eve Ash’s investigative doco, Shadow of Doubt which last year triggered the outrage at the murder conviction of Sue Neill Fraser in 2010, is returning to Foxtel’s Ci Channel on August 3 at 9.30pm and also on Aug 4 at 1am and 9am, just days before the 5th anniversary of Neill Fraser’s arrest (Aug. 20).
The documentary, nominated for an AACTA Award earlier this year, exposes the flaws in the police investigation of the case of missing Hobart radiologist, Bob Chappell, Neill Fraser’s partner of 18 years.
Chappell was missing from their yacht, Four Winds, when it was found to be taking water early on 27 January 2009. His body has never been found
TasPolice were convinced Neill Fraser was guilty of his murder, but were unable to provide the prosecution with any probative evidence. The ODPP took the matter to trial, where the ODPP speculated that the missing man had been struck by Neill Fraser with a wrench from behind, winched up two decks, bundled into the dinghy and dumped in the water … somewhere, sometime, somehow, all by Neill Fraser, alone.
On August 20, 2014, Neill Fraser’s current legal representative, Barbara Etter APM, will be speaking at the Plenary Session of the Australian Academy of Forensic Sciences, at Sydney’s Union University Club. Etter, a 30 year police veteran and former Assistant Commissioner of Police (in WA) and former Integrity Commissioner (in Tasmania) will outline her first-hand exposure to a miscarriage of justice case in WA where Andrew Mallard spent 12 years in gaol for a murder he did not commit. She will also discuss the Neill Fraser case. She was awarded the Australian Police Medal (APM) in 2008.
