Australian state to scrap law that lets killers get away with gay murder
Reading now: 406
gaystarnews.comThe state of South Australia is finally poised to scrap the ‘gay panic’ defense which killers can use to get away with murder.
The state’s government is introducing a bill into the Parliament of South Australia. They hope it will pass and see the defense outlawed by the end of 2020.
Gay and trans panic defenses are legal strategies which lawyers use to defend murderers and attackers. The defendant may claim that a gay or trans person made an unwanted sexual advance on them.
They then justify any attack as self-defense. Or they claim the advance shocked them so much that they were temporarily insane.
