Overview

• Prosecutors aired a 2023 message in which Davidson joked about Thailand ‘divorcees’ and de-facto laws, presenting it as evidence of financial motive.
• Telecommunications data shows his phone ‘ceased to exist’ on the network at 11:14 am, roughly three-and-a-half hours before the emergency triple-0 call.
• The Crown argues these revelations strengthen its circumstantial case by underscoring inconsistencies in Davidson’s accounts of his wife’s kayaking death.
• Davidson’s defence has labelled the evidence weak and proposed strict bail terms including a $250,000 surety, curfew, daily reporting, ankle bracelet and passport surrender.
• A ruling on the bail application is expected this Friday, when Justice Sullivan will weigh flight risk and potential witness interference against the proposed conditions.
