About this episode

The episode discusses the critical evidence provided by Tara Crabtree in her mother's murder case and the conditions surrounding her testimony.

Maree Crabtree's daughter Tara gave critical evidence in the murder case — but she did so with one condition. Brisbane court reporter Talissa Siganto explains what deal was done in order for Tara to turn crown witness. If you have any questions you'd like Talissa and Stocky to answer in future episodes, please email thecaseof@abc.net.au . The Case Of is the follow-up to the hit podcast Mushroom Case Daily, and all episodes of that show will remain available in the back catalogue of The Case Of.
