Miscarriage of Justice

On Australia Day 2009 Mr Bob Chappell, Royal Hobart Hospitals chief radiation physicist went missing. His body has never been found. His partner of 18 years Susan Neill-Fraser has since been found guilty of his murder in the Tasmanian criminal courts.

The conviction, which relied entirely upon circumstantial evidence, resulted in a prison term for Susan of 26 years, despite the fact that there was;

*no proof presented of a murder weapon 
*no witnesses to the alleged act
*no clear motive
*and no body has ever been found

Susan has never waivered in her claim of innocence.

Please sign this petition so that we can appeal to the Tasmanian Attorney General for a re-trial for this grave miscarriage of justice.

"We the undersigned wish to express our concern regarding the circumstances of Robert Adrian Chappells' disappearance on 26th Jan 2009, the subsequent investigation, trial and conviction of his partner of 20 years. We believe the verdict may have been unjust and ask that Susan Neill-Fraser be granted a retrial."
