‘What happened to Janine Balding was an absolute disgrace and a tragedy.’ 60 Minutes Australia: Get Shorty, 2014
His file [Stephen Shorty Jamieson] was marked never to be released. So why 35 years later are so many experts saying the evidence used to convict this murderer doesn’t stack up? ibid.
Rotting in prison for 36 years now, Stephen Shorty Jamieson’s file was marked never to be released. He’s one of Australia’s most reviled criminals. That’s because in 1988 Jamieson was the ringleader of a group of young thugs who abducted, raped and murdered 20-year-old Janine Balding. ibid.
New forensic evidence is driving a re-examination of an old conviction. ibid.
And from his co-defenders who still maintain he wasn’t with them that night in 1988. ibid.
Mark Wells: Incredibly, he’s twice said he was there … He’s the man that Jamieson’s co-defenders also say was actually with them the night Janine Balding was killed. But while the bandana found on Balding has been repeatedly tested against Jamieson with no match, it has never been tested against Wells. ibid.
