Good afternoon. The flow-on effects from the Bruce Lehrmann trial rolled on today, with the former director of public prosecutions Shane Drumgold scoring a partial victory in his ongoing case against Walter Sofronoff and the ACT government.
A court found that extensive communications between Sofronoff – who headed an inquiry into the Lehrmann trial – and The Australian columnist Janet Albrechtsen may have given an impression of bias against Drumgold. The former DPP launched legal action against the ACT government last August after the Sofronoff inquiry’s damning findings against him.
