I've just posted on to the Dawn Rowan Documents Blog the only response I've heard of by Mal Brough to Dawn's dire situation. If you read it carefully, you'll note how cold and legalistic it is. Again, our point is that something can be technically 'legal' but at the same time be unjust and immoral. And Dawn disputes the idea that the Commonwealth made any meaningful attempt to settle out of court.
Here's an informed response from Bob Moles, a legal expert in the area of miscarriages of justice, and author of A State of Injustice who has followed this case closely. It is reproduced here with his permission:
I find the response by the Minister to be particularly disappointing.
It fails to have regard to the equity, justice and substantial merits of the case which were all in favour of Dawn Rowan.
It is particularly disappointing that the Minister refers to the duty to act as a "model litigant".
If regard had been had to that issue from the outset, this matter would never have occurred, and Ms Rowan's reputation would never have been put in question.
Let me know if you require something more,
Best wishes to all,
Bob
