The Toowoomba case involving Bruce Lehrmann was mentioned in court last Thursday. There's a dispute over the brief of evidence. Lehrmann has sacked his previous legal team & lawyer Zali Burrows has just picked up the case. Adjourned until 22 May. #auspol https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-04-24/bruce-lehrmann-rape-allegations-toowoomba/105207022

For someone or some media outfit to say something untoward, so he can claim he can't possibly get a fair trial and have the matter dismissed?
Or is he just trying to inflict more pain on the victim?
I can't see into the mind of the defendant but the longer the delay, the longer any guilty verdict, and the longer a gaol sentence commences.
Obviously Mr Lehrmann enjoys the presumption of innocence until then.
