Who really murdered Bob Chappell? Veteran ex-detective and author
of JFK: The Smoking Gun, Colin McLaren, uncovers disturbing new
evidence that an innocent woman is in jail. Daybreak, Sandy Bay,
Hobart, 27 January 2009. A yacht, the Four Winds, is seen listing
low to the waterline. When police board the sinking vessel there is
no sign of the owners, Bob Chappell and Sue Neill-Fraser but,
disturbingly, they find blood and a knife. Bob Chappell is never
seen again. The blood spatter leads police to the conclusion that
he has been murdered. Remarkably, Sue Neill-Fraser is arrested,
found guilty and sentenced to 26 years' imprisonment. May, 2016.
Bestselling true-crime author Colin McLaren probes the notorious
cold case that grips Australia. What he discovers shocks him. No
body, no motive, no witnesses, a puddle of unexplained DNA liquid,
undisclosed police documents, insubstantial scenarios - all lead
him to believe Sue Neill-Fraser was wrongly convicted. He is not
alone, as lawyers line up to help her. August 2017. Sue
Neill-Fraser remains in prison. When questions are asked of her
conviction, new witnesses are charged, including a lawyer, and
unbearable pressure is applied until, fearing for his own liberty,
Colin McLaren flees the country. Southern Justice lays out the
evidence that should force a Royal Commission to reopen the case
and exonerate an innocent woman. The guilty are still out there! '.
