This is one of the longest running Miscarriage of Justice cases in Australia.

 

Leanne Sarah Holland, 12 years, was murdered on or about 23 September 1991.

On 28 September 1991 Graham Stuart Stafford, then 28 years was arrested and charged with her murder.

In 1992 he was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment.

He served 14 years and 9 months in Queensland prisons before being released on parole, 3 months short of the minimum required sentence of 15 years.

His conviction was overturned in December 2009 and a retrial ordered.

In 2010 the Queensland DPP advised they would not be retrying Graham Stafford.
