Summary

Meshel Laurie, host of the incredibly successful Australian True Crime podcast speaks to the forensic pathologists, homicide detectives, defence barristers and victims' families in this moving and gripping study of violent crime and largescale natural disaster. CSI HAS TOLD YOU LIES is a surprisingly moving account of the real forensic pathologists at the frontline of Australia's major crime and disaster investigations. These are the men and women whose post-mortem examinations help the dead to speak. Along with the pathologists, Meshel Laurie, host of the Australian True Crime podcast also speaks to the homicide detectives, defence barristers and victim's families in this ground-breaking study of the ripple-effect of violent crime and largescale natural disaster. After reading CSI HAS TOLD YOU LIES you'll never read another homicide headline without thinking about the forensic pathologist who happened to be on call. You'll never read another story about a murder trial or an inquest without acknowledging the forensic evidence and considering the brilliance and the sacrifice of the person who submitted it. You'll never hear the terrible news of a disaster without imagining one of the characters in this book pulling a suitcase down from on top of a wardrobe and bidding farewell to their own family for who-knows-how-long.
