Jeff NEEDS Justice calls on new DPP to allow fair appeal with full disclosure

Mr Lloyd Babb begins his new job today, as the NSW Director of Public Prosecutions.

We’ve sent him an open letter, congratulating him on his new appointment.  We’ve also called on him to take a model litigant approach with the upcoming legal appeal.

Just about everyone understands that our legal system is adversarial.  The defence and the prosecution take opposing sides and generally use whatever legal means necessary to win their arguments (or to prevent their opponents winning theirs).

In contrast, the model litigant approach is about integrity, openness and fairness.  It is about truth in its purest form.

In his new role, Mr Babb now has the opportunity to take this approach and be part of a system that successfully corrects some of the mistakes of the past.  If he succeeds in doing this, we will see Jeff returned to his family sooner rather than later.

Our brief press announcement, as well as the letter to Mr Babb, can be found in our press releases section.
