Acknowledgements

Once more, for the sixth time now, thanks to those on all sides of the law for their ongoing help and advice. Special thanks, again, go to Supreme Court media guru Anne Stanford and her County Court counterpart Anna Bolger for their swift responses to all requests and queries. Thanks also to High Court registrar Rosemary Musolino and Victorian Office of Public Prosecutions media chief Lisa Walker. And then there’s the Hardie Grant crew—Rose Michael and my handler this time ’round, Rihana Ries— for their unwavering professionalism and commitment. Also thanks to my editor Susan Keogh, and all the crew at the Victorian Government Reporting Service.
