Australia: Probe on wrongful j
AN eight-hour police interview with a Perth man jailed for 12 years for a murder he did not commit raises questions about potential misconduct, a corruption inquiry heard yesterday.
Western Australia’s Corruption and Crime Commission is investigating whether public officials engaged in misconduct during the police investigation into the murder of Pamela Lawrence in her Mosman Park jewellery store in May, 1994, and Andrew Mallard’s 1995 wrongful conviction for the crime.
It is also examining Mr Mallard’s subsequent appeals, including the High Court’s 2005 quashing of his conviction.
Mr Mallard was charged following an 8˝-hour interview with police on June 10, 1994.
Counsel Peter Quinlan said “there were a number of matters which raised questions as to potential misconduct”, during the interview.
These included the fact investigators waited until the mentally ill Mr Mallard was released from a psychiatric hospital that day before interviewing him.
Mr Mallard’s name was cleared in 2006 when a police cold case review found there was sufficient evidence to implicate another man, Simon Rochford, in the killing.
