Legal Troubles for Chris Dawson
Chris Dawson is appealing his guilty conviction related to the sexual abuse of a student while he was a teacher in Sydney during the 1980s. Currently serving a 24-year sentence for the murder of his wife Lynette Sims, Dawson received an additional three-year sentence for the abuse in 2023.

This appeal follows a previous unsuccessful bid to overturn his murder conviction made in June.
