We're here standing at the front of the bar at Law Courts where we can officially name
00:04
22-year-old Patrick Stevenson as the alleged murderer of Samantha Murphy.
00:10
It comes after a hearing today where lawyers acting for Mr Stevenson
00:14
dropped a potential application for a suppression order on publication of his name.
00:20
He appeared in court yesterday after his arrest where he made no application for bail and didn't
00:25
indicate whether or not he was going to plead guilty or not guilty. We did hear from lawyers
00:29
that they were thinking of applying for a suppression order. As a result the magistrate
00:34
grants an interim suppression order which can be granted without debating the merits of a
00:42
potential suppression order. He was arrested on Wednesday morning but charged running late
00:47
on Thursday, pretty late, about an hour or two before he appeared in court. He's going to reappear
00:53
next on August 8th for a committal hearing. He'll get sent off to eventually resolve in the Supreme Court.
