The Supreme Court judge who convicted aged-care worker Garry Steven Davis of murdering two elderly residents and attempting to murder a third applied “backwards reasoning” to come to the conclusion that one person was responsible for the SummitCare Wallsend nursing home killings, according to documents filed with the Court of Criminal Appeal. Davis, 30, was jailed for a maximum of 40 years with a non-parole of 30 years in December, 2016 after he was found guilty of the murder of Gwen Fowler, 83, and Ryan Kelly, 80, and the attempted murder of Audrey Manuel, 91, after a four-week judge-alone trial in the Newcastle Supreme Court. It was reported in August last year that Davis’ legal team, led by solicitor Mark Ramsland, had lodged a notice of intention to appeal the convictions to the Court of Criminal Appeal, obtained Legal Aid NSW funding and enlisted the service of barrister Graham Turnbull, SC. And today the matter will be mentioned for the first time in the Court of Criminal Appeal, where it is expected to get a hearing date in October.

Cardiologist Sam Wilson was the doctor who secretly filmed women in a toilet at Nelson Hospital. The High Court on Thursday rejected Wilson’s continued bid for name suppression over the secret filming of colleagues at the hospital and two visitors to his home between 2012 and 2014. Wilson, through his lawyers, issued a public apology for the pain and distress that his “selfish and foolish” actions had caused. The doctor resigned from the hospital after being charged in 2015, and is no longer working as a medical practitioner. He is also being investigated by the Medical Council and is likely to face disciplinary action.
