Sofronoff Board News Today

Shane Drumgold has filed proceedings against the ACT government’s Sofronoff Inquiry that found he engaged in serious misconduct during Bruce Lehrmann’s trial for the alleged rape of Brittany Higgins.

The ACT governments initial decision to delay the public release of the report of its Sofronoff Board of Inquiry into the criminal justice system was a textbook example of how not to manage a public inquiry.

When the blame lies clearly with the chief minister and his government, he shifts the blame to someone else, says letter writer RON EDGECOMBE, of Evatt. 

The Sofronoff Inquirys failure to address the juror who caused the Lehrmann rape trial to be aborted raises questions about the A.C.T. legal system.

Walter Sofronoff KC provided copies under embargo to ABC and the Australian, but ACT spokesperson said release ‘affected the inquiry process’
