Episode 33, Aussie Court Rules
Last week was unusual because the court didn’t sit at all due to the Bank Holiday and juror sickness. Today Lucy Letby resumes her evidence from the witness box and we’re hoping to bring you a bonus episode on this later in the week.
In the meantime, we hope you enjoy this interview with Australian Associated Press Reporter Karen Sweeney. Caroline and Liz chat to Karen, who has been following the podcast from the beginning, about her career and court reporting in Australia.

Customer Reviews
Decent podcast
The podcast is a little repetitive but the story is interesting. Love the idea of exclusively presenting the case that the jury hears so listeners can make their mind up about it based on evidence. It seems quite clear that she did kill them on purpose, too many cases to be a coincidence.
Piano interludes overused to the point of emotional distress
Interesting podcast iI guess, episodes very repetitive, use of simple piano every few minutes is excruciating and clearly used as a filler to flesh out episodes. Its really every few min and becomes very painful. Nothing really happens each episode and podcast really doesn need to go on for this long with only short updates. Overall, bit of a time waste.
Innocent until proven guilty?
I believe that the hosts of this podcast are presuming her guilt and not presenting it impartially but it’s still informative.
