Prosecutor and defence deliver closing arguments in carnal knowledge trial of The Teacher’s Pet subject Chris Dawson

The Crown and the defence have delivered their closing arguments in the carnal knowledge trial of Christopher Michael Dawson.

The carnal knowledge trial of Christopher Michael Dawson has officially come to a close. Just as he did in his murder trial, Dawson exercised his right to silence: he did not give evidence in his own defence.

In this episode, Hedley Thomas, Claire Harvey, David Murray, and Matthew Condon discuss the closing submissions of Crown Prosecutor Emma Blizard and defence barrister Claire Wasley.

Plus, we dissect the evidence of the final witnesses called by the Crown.
