Following on from the "Murder v Manslaughter" episode which featured the case Hyam v DPP and used a test of foreseeability to establish indirect intent, we move on to look at further developments in the law.

Chris guides us through the facts on Woollin and stops along the way to look at R v Maloney. 

Plus, toast and Steve Wright.

Barrister and University Law Lecturer Chris Kehoe guides us through the legal issues regarding the Rwanda bound flight to process asylum seekers which was grouded on 14th June 2022. 

Was it grounded because a European Court overruled a UK Court? Is the idea to "Process" asylum seekers actually an attempt to reduce trafficking as some in Govt. claim? What are the legal duties of the UK with regard to asylum seekers?

All this, and more, in a special Chris Kehoe ONLY episode of Barely Legal Comedy Podcast

Direct vs Oblique Intention, Negligence, Recklessness, R v Smith is replced by statute which then leads to one of the most famous criminal cases of all time; Hyam v DPP.

Plus, Kehoe talks about life as a Law Lecturer, reveals his dream life and a book Chris lends Alex is read aloud in a coffee shop... 

Kehoe clicks his pen and Boardman ponders what might have been with a scouse solicitor. We also discuss Limmy, liken The Govt. to The Office and finally squeeze a little Actus Reus in for good measure.

Kehoe with some top tips for a barrister appearing in the family courts, plus an awesome case on the defence of automatism. 

Also, spare a thought for those poor students in Liverpool... 

Expert advice from two people who don't actually know what year we are in.

P&O Ferries and the 800 workers they let go without notice or consultation. Did they break the law, have they committed a criminal offence and what does the statute say the consequences of their actions are.

Also, Kehoe has a new part-time job.

Snow White, a forgotten mic, the law on accidental Actus Reus and continuation and a new sound effect to beep out some swearing.

The Actus Reaus of the offence of Perjury is explored in an interesting case. Also, we discuss the different types of barristers, what do people who aren't religious swear on in court instead of the holy bible, are harsher sentences really a deterrent and just how much does a barrister's wig cost?

A wooded copse, a policeman with a gun lying in wait for a repeat offender... sounds like a Scandi crime drama, but actually it's a case from Victorian England.  

Also; Actus Reus and the overlap into Mens Rea. What are Assizes? What are summary and indictable offences and what exactly is a felony?

And in a world exclusive, we examine the question on everyone's lips, what is an Ox Bow Lake and how are they formed?
