Show Notes
Australias most decorated soldier, Ben Roberts-Smith, faces war crime charges from his time in Afghanistan. Prosecutors allege unlawful killings of unarmed civilians and prisoners. After losing a defamation case, he now faces a criminal trial with strict rules. Public reactions are divided, with some hailing it as long-overdue justice and others defending troops in brutal war zones. Critics slam supporters for attacking the process. The trial will determine Australias commitment to the rules of war, with life sentences possible if convicted.
