It's included a criminal trial, corruption probes, multiple defamation cases, and fresh allegations aimed at her rapist.
In this episode of The Briefing, Tara Cassidy and Chris Spyrou unpack everything that’s happened since the explosive defamation trial between Bruce Lehrmann and Lisa Wilkinson, up to the latest courtroom sagas, payouts and “James Bond-esque" investigation.
