Overview

• Bruce Lehrmann appeared by video/phone in Hobart Magistrates Court, with bail continued in the Tasmanian motor vehicle theft matter.
• Defence lawyer Zali Burrows said she will subpoena a media interview by complainant Gail Oates, alleging it conflicts with her police statement.
• Burrows noted newly unredacted material that names another person the complainant believed might have taken the Toyota Prado and flagged potential further requests.
• Police prosecutor Bunewat Keo said disclosure to the defence is complete except for maps of the alleged incident and a bank officer’s statement about a search warrant.
• The prosecution expects evidence from Oates, her husband and son, five police officers, a friend of Lehrmann and a service-station worker, with CCTV and body-worn camera footage to be tendered, and the matter returns to court on October 31.
