A top prosecutor has told Chris Dawson’s murder appeal the convicted wife killer appeared to show a “complete lack of sentiment towards his own children”.
Convicted killer Chris Dawson,whose appeal is before the courts,claimed his wife never returned after he dropped her at a bus stop. A top judge has asked a pointed question.
The convicted killer claimed his wife called him at Northbridge Baths and told him that she needed “time away”. Within days,his daughters’ babysitter moved in.
The convicted killer has asked the state’s top criminal appeal court to overturn his conviction for the murder of his wife Lynette Simms,who vanished in 1982.
Dawson groomed and sexually abused a 16-year-old girl he met while teaching at a Sydney high school in the 1980s. He was found guilty in June in the NSW District Court.
The woman alleges the NSW education department failed to protect her from being groomed by her teacher.
Paul Dawson,the twin brother of convicted murderer and child sex offender Chris Dawson,has been accused of having sex with a student in the 1980s.
Dawson,who was convicted last year of killing his wife,faced a judge-alone trial in the NSW District Court on a charge of carnal knowledge of a student.
The 74-year-old former teacher is on trial in the NSW District Court after pleading not guilty to carnal knowledge of a student under the age of 17.
Convicted wife killer Chris Dawson allegedly alluded to a secret sexual relationship with a teenage girl in a comment on her school report card.
The family of the 33-year-old,who was killed in Sydney in January 1982,want to do away with references to her marital name linking her to a man who “discarded her”.
