News Corp vultures exploit legal system to control Lehrmann story

Strange goings on. This is the 2nd leak to News Corp that could influence the outcome of the trial against Bruce Lehrmann as it did against Brittany Higgins. Is News Corp practicing the same corrupt media methods that saw Murdoch’s UK tabloid News of the World shut down? Do we have the laws to bring News Corp to heel?

The Bruce Lehrmann plot thickens as News Corp journalists claim to have obtained confidential information regarding new accusations against the alleged rapist.

Are News Corp journalists in possession of confidential or privileged information about this case that will not be used in court, should the matter proceed to trial?

If so, will they publish any of it, as did The Australian journalist Janet Albrechtsen after Lehrmann’s A.C.T. trial with the leaked Higgins text messages that were not used as evidence in court?

This is the second time a police brief concerning Lehrmann has mysteriously found its way to the wrong address.
