December 2, 2022 / 5:54 AMChris Dawson arrives at New South Wales Supreme Court, August 30, 2022, in Sydney, Australia. Dawson, a former Newtown Jets rugby league player, was accused of murdering his wife Lynette and disposing of her body in January 1982.— A former Australian high school teacher convicted of murdering his wife after a hit podcast unearthed new evidence was on Friday sentenced to 24 years in prison.
Her body was never found and there were few leads in the case until 2018 when"The Teacher's Pet" podcast sparked renewed public interest and ultimately a fresh police investigation. The murder had been driven by Dawson's"possessive infatuation" with his former student, which led him to kill his wife, Judge Ian Harrison said Friday while announcing the 24-year prison sentence."Mr Dawson is not old by contemporary standards, but he will not live to reach the end of his non-parole period," Harrison said.
