Ex-prisoner Russell Manser, who has seen and experienced the worst of Australian prisons, said Chris Dawson should expect a harsh welcome in jail - and not just because he killed his wife.
Chris Dawson was seen shaking his head and his twin brother muttered bulls as the judge found the teacher and former football star guilty of the 1982 murder of his wife Lynette.
Christopher Dawson, 74, is spending his first night in the squalid cells beneath Surry Hills police centre in a one-out (single) cell before he is taken off to a Sydney prison on Wednesday morning.
