David Bain ReportDavid Cullen Bain (born March 27, 1972 in Dunedin, New Zealand) was convicted in May 1995 for the murder of his parents and siblings on 20 June the previous year. He served 12 years of a life sentence before his final appeal to the Privy Council was successful in May 2007. Finding there had been a substantial miscarriage of justice, the Privy Council quashed his convictions and recommended a retrial. He has been released on bail awaiting the retrial, which is scheduled to be held in Christchurch starting on 6 March 2009, and is expected to take twelve weeks.[1]

His case has been the subject of numerous appeals and inquiries, and is one of New Zealand's most controversial murder cases...

  • @Lacedaemonia Not a religious nut and thats been removed I think. There are also two doco's that have been done about the case by Bryan Bruce for TVNZ. They are called "A Question Of Justice" and another called "The Case Against Robin Bain" which was recently screened on tv. You can also get some more details by looking at the "The Investigator" on Facebook. Theres also another site on Facebook with a substancial number of members called "Justice For Robin Bain" .

  • @vicpur Cheers- I'll have a look. But what's with this 'Unraveling [sic] the mysteries of the life of Christ' on the site? I just want to know more about this particular case, not read some religious nut's take on fairytales.

  • @Lacedaemonia counterspin.co.nz its all here.

  • WAS IT DAVID -OR- ROBIN Evidence pointing to David 1. David's fingerprints in blood on murder weapon. 2. The glasses implicate David, his lawyer said David would not dispute that he was wearing them on the weekend of the murders. 3. Brothers blood on David's clothes. 4. Opera Otago Gondoliers sweatshirt was worn by David over weekend, had blood stains on right shoulder and cuff but of course no explanation from David.
  • I have Karam's book but would like to have some background information; is there no documentary that discusses the case in its entirety?

  • This HeartlessArchAngel69 person is a joke. Learn the case before you say David Bain is innocent. All the courts through the years have said David did it. You wont find a non biased person with half a brain cell who knows the case saying hes innocent. The only reason the 2009 jury got the wrong verdict was the reasonable doubt created. They made little effort to dispute the strong forensic evidence implicating David. Smart legal move, but it doesn't change the fact that David is guilty

  • If you watch this with no sound you can lip read Karam!! He appears to be saying

    "Show ME the money!!!!!"

  • Well you might think there's reasonable doubt.

    I don't.

  • I have considered either way! I am unsure of whether he is gulty or innocent, I said I reaccon he is innocent becasue of reasonable doubt!

    theres a pretty big question mark over this, that you could send a man who could well be innocent back to jail over a bunch of maybes! pretty big risk! and IF he is innocent hes suffered through these trials for 13 years!
