Death Of Azaria Chamberlain

Her body was never found. Her parents, Lindy and Michael Chamberlain, reported that she had been taken from their tent by a dingo. However, Lindy was tried for murder and spent more than three years in prison. Michael received a suspended sentence. Lindy was released only after Azaria's jacket was found near a dingo lair and new inquests were opened.

The findings of the inquest were broadcast live on television—a first in Australia. Subsequently, after a further investigatio ...
