In this episode, Vanessa asks a confronting question: just how much can due process and an
acquittal — being found not guilty — be affected by the pressures and trends of social and
cultural movements in our society? How far have these movements, and the trending hashtags
associated with them, infiltrated the bastions of the law?
This episode focuses on the complainant known as C2 and the charges laid against Craig McLachlan in relation to her evidence. Vanessa takes listeners through allegations involving a
“hug” and an “onstage kiss,” and examines courtroom commentary from the Magistrate that
raises serious and troubling questions about how such matters are assessed.
