As a community we tend to believe that the fairness, rigour and democratic principles inherent in our justice system mean that the presumption of innocence is protected, that only the truly guilty are sent to prison. But that is not always the case. Drawing on painstaking research and insightful analysis, "A State of Injustice" examines various cases where forensic investigations were later found to be flawed. These cases have prompted calls for the establishment of a Criminal Cases Review Commission and raised doubts about the involvement of the former Chief of Forensic Pathology for South Australia, Dr Colin Manock, whose qualifications for the job have come into question. In view of the errors brought to light, author Robert Moles asks - have innocent people been wrongly imprisoned and have guilty parties literally gotten away with murder? *** Quantity Available: 3.
