As bad as it gets.
This from former Attorney-General Chris Finlayson on the Alan Hall case.
Hall has had his conviction for the 1985 killing of Arthur Easton quashed by the Supreme Court.
Police have launched an internal inquiry, and the Solicitor-General has hired an independent lawyer to look into all Crown Lawyers involved.
Finlayson told Tim Dower we're possibly talking about suppression of evidence.
He says this sort of thing undermines his confidence in our system and makes you wonder if we're any better than some central African republic.
