Description: Senior Lecturer Thalia Anthony reviews the case of Lex Wotton, the man who led the uprising following the death in custody of Mulrunji Doomadgee. Lex made an appeal based on the beach of the implied constitutional right to freedom of communication.
Quote: “Nonetheless, Lex’s lawyer argued that the objective of the legislation did not relate to protecting victims, but prohibits any form of communication on any matter and is at the complete discretion of the Chief Executive.”
