The Victorian office of public prosecutions has yet to rule out contempt charges in relation to comments made on the Kyle and Jackie O Show about the triple murder trial of Erin Patterson, four months after the co-hosts were criticised by a supreme court judge.
Justice Christopher Beale referred the comments to the office for contempt proceedings in June, after Kyle Sandilands made comments including, “just lock that bitch up” and called the case “not strong for her”.
The OPP said in a statement to Guardian Australia this week it was still considering whether to commence prosecutions in relation to the comments, as well as to a separate referral relating to comments made about Patterson during an event billed as “The Psychology of Serial Killers” at Hamer Hall in Melbourne.
