Description: Shows a block of melting ice labelled, 'Just-ice Binnie's report', with the title, 'David Bain Compensation'. In 2011, former Canadian Supreme Court Justice Ian Binnie was asked to investigate a compensation claim made by New Zealander David Bain, who spent 13 years in prison for murdering his family - but was eventually acquitted in a retrial. After a 12 month investigation, Binnie concluded that original police investigation was incompetent, declared Bain to be innocent on the 'balance of probabilities' and recommended he should be paid compensation. The new Justice Minister Judith Collins rejecte the findings of the report, saying it lacked robust reasoning and showed a misunderstanding New Zealand law.
