The Verdict

The jury returns a verdict. Did they get it right?

The prosecution and defence close their cases with the stories they have gradually been revealing through the trial.

The prosecution lawyer emphasises David Lyttle's confession to the prison guards, his misleading statements about Brett's guns, the inadequately explained two-hour gap in his trip to the campsite.

The defence say it's all just a story David made up and most of it can't be true. And some drug dealers who killed Brett have gotten away with murder.

It's the job of the jurors to decide which side tells the most compelling story.

They return a verdict.

Did they get it right?
