1
00:00:00,520 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 1: Together do for cel coming up five to eighteen. Now,

2
00:00:03,360 --> 00:00:05,920
Speaker 1: yet another twist in the Jared Haynes sex assault case.

3
00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:08,559
Speaker 1: The former NRL star has just had his conviction quashed

4
00:00:08,600 --> 00:00:11,640
Speaker 1: in the Court of Appeal for the second time. Michael

5
00:00:11,680 --> 00:00:14,200
Speaker 1: Bradley is a managing partner at Mark Lawyers and joins

6
00:00:14,200 --> 00:00:17,520
Speaker 1: me now from Sydney him Michael, Hi, is he getting

7
00:00:17,560 --> 00:00:19,919
Speaker 1: off on a technic technicality or is this fair enough?

8
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:26,239
Speaker 2: Oh? Well, I mean these are all technicalities whichever way

9
00:00:26,239 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 2: it goes. The Appeal Court has overturned this conviction on

10
00:00:32,400 --> 00:00:35,919
Speaker 2: a couple of Yeah, those technical grounds to do with

11
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 2: the way that the judge, the trial judge conducted the

12
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:45,599
Speaker 2: trial in terms of evidence that he allowed and his

13
00:00:45,720 --> 00:00:51,040
Speaker 2: directions to the jury, which the New Pearl Court obviously

14
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:55,200
Speaker 2: came to the view, meant that the conviction was unsound.

15
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:56,600
Speaker 2: So here we are.

16
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,480
Speaker 1: Do you think he's going to go to trial because

17
00:00:58,480 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 1: if he goes to trial again, it'll be the full time,

18
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:00,840
Speaker 1: won't it.

19
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:04,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's going to be in the hands of the

20
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 2: Director of Public Prosecutions. It would be surprising if they

21
00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:12,560
Speaker 2: take him to a fourth trial. Usually when it gets

22
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,959
Speaker 2: to this sort of point, particularly because he's already served

23
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:21,400
Speaker 2: prison time. There comes a point where, you know, in

24
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:24,039
Speaker 2: terms of the public interest and also just sort of

25
00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:29,120
Speaker 2: basic fairness, they will pull the pin. So but yeah,

26
00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:31,160
Speaker 2: I mean that's it's a discretionary call for the TP.

27
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:32,760
Speaker 1: How do you feel about it if they decide to

28
00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:33,120
Speaker 1: go with that.

29
00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 2: Oh, look, I mean obviously the whole case has been

30
00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:42,000
Speaker 2: a debarcle. You know, it's in no one's interest for

31
00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 2: a rape case to be tried three times and it's

32
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:52,440
Speaker 2: appalling for everyone, clear up. Obviously, an ordeal for him,

33
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 2: an awful or deal for the complainant. You know, there

34
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 2: are no winners in this side just underlines how broken

35
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 2: the system is.

36
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, to aol Right, Michael, thank you for your time.

37
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:05,919
