04 The Two Intruders | How did Irma die?

As the pathologist tasked with explaining Irma Palasic's cause of death gave his evidence, he criticised the quality of the reports he relied on, revealing a surprising oversight.

In this episode, Elizabeth Byrne explains to Stephen Stockwell how defence barristers used these revelations. The jury also heard about how milk was packaged for Canberra in 1999 — a nod to DNA evidence found on a milk bottle at the crime scene.
