'High-profile man': Suppression challenged in QLD extortion case

The Case Of

A Queensland man is accused extorting his former partner by threatening to expose her alleged past affair with a high-profile public figure. The identity of the high-profile man has been suppressed even though he's not accused of any wrongdoing. Cairns reporter Conor Byrne and investigative reporter Grace Tobin join the pod to explain what we can and can't report and why. If you have any questions you'd like Grace, Conor and Stocky to answer in future episodes, please email thecaseof@abc.net.au . The Case Of is the follow-up to the hit podcast Mushroom Case Daily, and all episodes of that show will remain available in the back catalogue of The Case Of.
