Searching Networked Knowledge

We have introduced a new "search" option for users of Networked Knowledge
All documents on the site are fully indexed so just enter a name or topic and you can immediately create your own list of NetK documents where the name or topic appears.
Click on the red button "search NetK" to the left of the screen. We hope you find what you are looking for. If not, let us know.
Please bear in mind that it takes the search engine a few days to index new materials. So always good to check "what's new" for the most recent materials

The New Networked Knowledge Forum

The Networked Knowledge Forum
We have often been asked by people to create some means by which they can discuss and debate issues raised through the materials on this site. The new NK Forum allows us to do that. You can raise a topic for discussion, or join in one which is already under way.
But a note of caution: please do not attempt to use the forum to attack any individuals or organisations, or to express outrage at the conduct of a particular or specifiable case. The whole point of this site is to identify possible failures of due process. Where we have concerns about individual cases, there are procedures through which we can obtain solutions, or at least to have the concerns addressed. A forum is a place where we can learn together about the issues and processes involved. Please treat it with the respect and care which it deserves. And read the forum rules.

Media developments

We now have three documentary film companies who have funding to undertake documentaries on our South Australian and interstate cases. Further information will be provided here as the projects progress

NetK success story

It can be seen from the figure at the top of the page that the use of our materials has been increasing significantly in the previous few months. A significant number of our visitors are from universities and other educational institutions.
We also have many visitors from government departments and law enforcement agencies.
Just over 50% of our visitors are from Australia with the rest coming from international destinations with Canada, UK, USA, Hong Kong and Thailand being amongst the most frequent users. India and China are the most noticeable growth areas. Developing countries are much in evidence.
The rate of accesses is increasing steadily as more and more people are adding the NetK site to their list of bookmarks.
Our current policy is to continue to expand the range of information available, as well as to develop the internal links to facilitate your access to the information.

What a good idea!!

Why not click on the "visitors book" and say hello. Tell us something about yourself - where you are from? How have we been of assistance to you?

In May 2006 - Angus and Robertson Online Bookshop listed this book as No 3 in the top ten law books

"We're excited"

Most people presume that the legal system works pretty well at dispensing justice. Alarmingly, this is not always the case. This book, by Dr Robert N Moles, examines various cases where forensic investigations were later found to be flawed. On each of these occasions the diagnosis of the cause of death had a profound impact on whether or not a criminal investigation ensued. Each case provides compelling and disturbing reading.

This book is an astonishing indictment of the legal system in South Australia.

In 1994, a woman was found dead in the bath at her home. Her fiance was soon charged and convicted of her murder. Subsequent research by Dr Moles has revealed fundamental shortcomings in the evidence and procedures up to and including the trial and the appeals. A Petition by Keogh has been "under consideration" by the South Australian Attorney-General, Michael Atkinson, for nearly four years now. It would usually be expected to be dealt with within three months.

Because of the widespread national concern about these matters, and because some of the officials based in South Australia seem either unable or unwilling to investigate these matters, we have brought together a unique legal and forensic team to ensure that these issues do not continue to be ignored.
