More DescriptionDuring a fearsome Chas Robertson steals fodder for his horses from a police outpost but is observed by the station's Aboriginal tracker.The theft is discovered by the outpost's senior-constable who sees the crime as a personal slight. What should have been dealt with as a minor matter ends up in Darlinghurst Criminal Court before a hanging Judge, Sir William Windeyer.
