Australian True Crime

Katherine Knight is the only woman in Australian history to be sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.
In 2001, she was convicted of murdering her partner, John Price, in a case so shocking and brutal that it remains one of the most infamous crimes Australia has ever seen.
Today, we're unpacking the crime, the trial, and the legal questions surrounding the case with Lauren Cassimatis, Principal Lawyer and Director at Gallant Law.
