Like John Button, Darryl Beamish and Andrew Mallard, Scott Austic’s acquittal is another WA miscarriage of justice
The miscarriage of justice suffered by Scott Austic will go down in history as yet another botched murder investigation by WA Police that saw an innocent man spend years in jail for a crime he did not commit.
It will be listed alongside cases such as John Button, Darryl Beamish and the late Andrew Mallard — all of whom were found years later to have been wrongfully convicted of murder.
The cases all featured serious failures by police, who focused on the person they believed responsible, built a case against them, and failed to properly investigate other suspects.
