Legal Studies Students Dive into Real-World Legal Debate

Legal Studies students recently attended a thought-provoking workshop with Just Lawful podcast hosts Daniel Panazzolo and Sean Fewster, who focus on elevating victims’ voices and exploring justice in real-world cases. Tied to their current unit on dispute resolution, students examined a 2001 case of Death by Dangerous Driving, analysing evidence, legal bias, and the difference between a legal outcome and true justice. Students were challenged to recognise personal bias, critically evaluate verdicts and sentencing, and question whether our system delivers justice, or merely legal resolutions.
