The trial of Bruce Lehrmann for the alleged rape of Brittany Higgins – an accusation he strenuously denies – will not see a court room again, and a verdict will never be reached. It leaves both parties in limbo, and already there is rampant speculation that civil lawsuits could be filed.

Today, contributing editor of The Monthly Rachel Withers on an unacceptable risk to those seeking justice. Socials: Stay in touch with us on Twitter and Instagram.
