For me, the most important journalism of 2022 has been Mike White’s reporting on the Lois Tolley murder case over on Stuff. The refusal to release the report follows continued efforts by police to withhold material relating to the Lois Tolley investigation and the CIPEM interviewing method. Detective Superintendent Tom Fitzgerald also was responsible for that other great questionable miscarriage of justice case, the murder of Olivia Hope and Ben Smart. Of course, in all of this is the whanau of Lois Tolley, whose murder has not been solved and whose family can not rest. Lois Tolley and her family deserved far better than this debacle.
