They're there to think about what facts are being presented and what's, I guess, the most plausible case theory.
So we operate in terms of theories or strategies.
So the prosecution rely on evidence the police have obtained and they piece together a jigsaw puzzle based on those pieces.
As Defence, we create a different puzzle with the same pieces.
And it might be that that one is more, I guess...

Definitely.
And we've got, you know, the beauty of we live in a democratic society and there is that opportunity to have a jury, 12 people from society, all walks of life, think about what is the best argument here.
So Catherine, I've got to make clear I didn't represent her, but she... Well, you would have been too young, by the way.
I was 20, but thank you.
I was still probably studying law, yeah.
No, so look, we've seen it now with the mushroom murder, you know, and you're right, social media now puts everything out there on various platforms.

It's probably the most, I'd say, reprehensible crime at that stage in Australia that had occurred.
And what makes it more, I'm not going to say attractive, but people fascinated by true crime.
And why were they so fascinated by her?
It's because she was a female.
A lot of people don't expect women to be so aggressive.
