As far as u-turns go, the ACT’s top prosecutor Shane Drumgold has put on his blinker and went for it… Yesterday, he retracted a statement that he believed politicians interfered with an investigation into assault claims made against former Liberal staffer Bruce Lehrmann. On Wednesday, he named former Coalition minister Linda Reynolds – the then boss of Lehrmann and his accuser Brittany Higgins – as someone he reckoned pressured ACT investigators to “make the matter go away”. Drumgold didn’t provide evidence for the claim, and Reynolds called it a “baseless suggestion”. But that’s not all… He made another startling revelation yesterday, saying he believed the juror whose misconduct caused the trial to be aborted was the only one out of the 12 tasked with considering the verdict who wasn’t convinced of Lehrmann’s guilt. That’s not a verified fact – it’s just his take on the situation. The inquiry continues with Lerhmann’s lawyer Steve Whybrow set to give his version of events.
