Supreme court appeal,  two of the three judges had little experience in criminal law and disented with the views of the judge with vast experience in criminal law.

Unanimous High Court Ruling  ( 7 Judges all with vast experience)  far outweighs the supreme court ruling.

How therefore can one have faith in the Justice System when the Supreme Court can appoint two inexperienced judges in such an important appeal? How can one truly be confident that justice has prevailed? I accept the High Court decision, but the fractures in System leave that element of doubt.

Jim Maxwell has extensive experience in criminal law, having been hearing appeals of criminal law convictions for nearly 20 years.

Of the High Court Justices, only one - Bell - would have more criminal law experience.

Anne Ferguson had to sit on the appeal, it was her duty as Chief Justice.
