After 40 years, a verdict is just days away. As anticipation builds, we answer more of your questions: What happened to the dressmaker who Lyn talked to about her bruises and her “violent” husband Chris? Do inquest findings carry any weight in a criminal trial? What does reasonable doubt mean anyway?

We have a frank and honest discussion about how the language we use to talk about crime has evolved. And we hear from a woman who's travelling hundreds of kilometres to hear the verdict in person out of respect for Lyn, a woman she has never met.
