People like Milat charged with very serious offences seem to me to live in a legal limbo that's not quite consistent with innocent until proven guilty. They are refused bail and incarcerated while awaiting trial, sometimes for periods of several years. They're effectively being punished for something for which they haven't been convicted. We don't hear too many sympathetic words for people in that position, their jobs aren't held open for them, yet their fate isn't posited as the end of the rule of law, as Porter asserted his situation would amount too if he stood aside.
