Anniversary of arrest without probable cause – Tasmania’s legal shame

Andrew L. Urban

There has never been a more blatant disregard for the rule of law – by officers of the law; when police arrested Sue Neill-Fraser to charge her with murder, they had no body of the victim, no murder weapon, no witness and no motive. And certainly no confession … 

Sue Neill-Fraser is now on parole, after serving 13 years of her 23 year sentence for the murder of her partner of 18 years, Bob Chappell. Tasmanian police arrested her on August 20, 2009 and she was tried & sentenced a year later.

Two years ago, in 2023, I published the second book that examines this egregious miscarriage of justice, showing how the legal system failed Sue Neill-Fraser. On purpose.

The Exoneration Papers – Sue Neill-Fraser –  also shows how the Tasmanian Integrity Commission, the Legal Profession Board, the Tasmanian Law Society and the Bar Association have all failed to demand the proper administration of justice.

The Tasmanian devil is in the detail ….

    We moved from Tasmania -it is very Corrupt Dangerous and very frightening – people go missing and no one does anything – if you speak out you will disappear – It is a Very Dangerous Place to live – a Police Woman wrote a book about the so call People in Power have parties and drug women and get away with it because they can – She had to leave Tasmania before she disappeared. There is more evidence to support that – scary.

    Well done Andrew, another excellent work. As stated in the Rule of Law Institute’s web site; The Rule of Law (TRL) is a “concept”. As the High Court pointed out in the Clive Palmer v WA Govt case, “TRL is not mentioned in the Aust. Constitution, it is an implied term” – my reading of that is, TRL is optional, as Sue Neill-Fraser found out.
    The public’s perception of the administration of justice in this country, slips inexorably into the abyss. The reality is, justice is optional.

    There are many cases just like this – but then none quite like this case.

    Tasmanian Justice system celebrating it’s arrival into the 19th Centaury.

    Keep up the good work Andrew.

    Shocking disregard for due process and diligence .. the police in Tasmania are very corrupt and so many are fearful of their power ..a gendered and class related incompetent police case run by a bunch of powerful thugs .. even the politicians and legal profession behold them in fear . It is common knowledge that she is innocent..
