She's been found guilty of murdering her 2ND Child 14 years ago.
All evidence is circumstantial.
Obviously she has something to hide because she has not been telling the truth.
But how can you convict someone of murder without any proof?
There is no evidence that the child is murdered.
There is only the evidence that the child is missing.
Possible Conspiracy/s:
"Ms Lane told police she gave Tegan to her natural father, Andrew Norris,
his girlfriend, Mel, and his mother in Auburn Hospital car park the day she was discharged.
Police have found no evidence that such people exist."
It seemed evident that she had been promiscuous and if it was a one-night stand,
she may not clearly remember this Andrew Norris or Morris,
and it is highly probable that she has never seen his ID, so he may not be he said he was.
It has been proven that she had been lying,
and what story she's telling now is not accepted by 'The Crown' and the 'Jury'.
It is solely because of these lies that she is charged with murder.
But how else do you explain 'The Missing Child' who deserves justice too.
This is really a Tough Case!

Here are the news excerpts from various sources... Story of First Child Earlier, a witness, who cannot be named for legal reasons, said he had a sexual relationship with Lane for about six weeks to two months around the middle of 1994. But he said it was not until 2005 that he found out he was the father of Lane's first child, whom she adopted out. "At any time during or after your relationship with Keli Lane did you become aware that she was pregnant?" asked prosector Mark Tedeschi QC. The witness replied no, and repeated the answer when asked if he became aware that she had a baby. The man said he gave evidence at the 2005 inquest into the disappearance of Tegan Lane and afterwards provided a DNA sample. "Subsequently, were you informed that you are the father of (Lane's first baby)?" Tedeschi asked. The man said he was. "Did that come as a complete surprise to you?" Tedeschi asked. "Yes, it sure did," he replied. Story of Second Child (Tegan Lane, the missing child) {apparently, it wasn't her current boyfriend's (Duncan Gillies) child at the time but a certain Andrew Norris or Morris. This is the Child that she's on trial for.} From what they saw in the summer of 1994-95 she found it hard to believe Ms Lane's boyfriend, Duncan Gillies, did not know of the pregnancy. Yesterday would have been Ms Lane's first questioning under oath on the suspected death of her daughter Tegan. According to the State Coroner, John Abernethy, she has told a "litany" of lies to police, adoption agents and health workers. But instead of facing questions, she wept beside her father as Mr Abernethy abruptly adjourned the inquest to September 12 - the same day as her missing child's ninth birthday. After suspending hearings until a forensic psychiatrist has examined the brief of evidence and testimonies given so far, Mr Abernethy told Ms Lane's lawyer, Peter Hamill, SC, that "it wouldn't be a bad idea for your client to consider seeing a psychiatrist". Counsel assisting, Rebbecca Becroft, said that after a week of questioning witnesses, the inquest was no closer to uncovering Tegan's fate. Ms Lane gave birth to three children in the 1990s. Two of them, a daughter born in 1995 and a son born in 1999, were legally given up for adoption. However, Ms Lane did not register Tegan's birth, and Tegan has not been seen since Ms Lane left Auburn Hospital with her two days after giving birth. Ms Lane told police she gave Tegan to her natural father, Andrew Norris, his girlfriend, Mel, and his mother in Auburn Hospital car park the day she was discharged. Police have found no evidence that such people exist. Mr Abernethy said that before hearings resumed he wanted to carry out a comprehensive cross-check of registered births with data collected by midwives. He wanted schools to finish looking for students fitting Tegan's birth details, "if in fact that child is alive", and asked anyone who knew of a couple "hitherto childless, who all of a sudden they have a child", to come forward. Such a thing "must be odd", he said. He also told police to interview Taryn Woods and her father, Dave Woods, a water polo coach. Ms Woods is the only witness who has refused to make a statement. Last week Mr Gillies testified to having had sex with her during his relationship with Ms Lane, which lasted from 1994 to 1998. Story of 3rd Child The jury also heard from the biological father of her third child, who told the court he was just 19 when he had a four-to-six month relationship with Lane, four years his senior. The father of the third child, who cannot be identified, told the court the pair were together after Lane's relationship with footballer Duncan Gillies broke up in 1998. The man said he had no idea Lane had fallen pregnant during their relationship - his first "adult" one - and only found out he was the child's father two years ago, when he was asked to supply DNA. |
Here are the various news found on the internet...
Story of 1st Child Keli Lane's stomach was "huge", jury told Published: 8:42PM Wednesday August 25, 2010 When Keli Lane was pregnant with the baby she is accused of murdering, another water polo player donned goggles to get a close look at her "huge" stomach, a Sydney court has been told. But Stacey Gaylard told the NSW Supreme Court jury Lane did not tell her she was pregnant and she did not ask. Gaylard said the incident happened as they were training with the Balmain women's water polo team at the Homebush pool around May or June 1996. Lane, 35, has pleaded not guilty to murdering her second baby, two-day-old Tegan Lane, on September 14, 1996. The Crown has alleged she kept three pregnancies secret, adopting out two infants and murdering Tegan. But Lane has told police she handed Tegan over to the infant's father. Police have found no trace of Tegan since September 14, 1996. On Wednesday, Gaylard said that while other players wore shorts at the Homebush session, Lane had on tracksuit pants even though the pool area was very warm. She said Lane tucked a towel around her before taking off her outer garments, and then slipped into the water. "I put my goggles on when Keli got in ... I went under the water and looked at Keli's stomach," she said. Justice Anthony Whealy asked the witness: "What business was it of yours?". "The fact that Keli looked huge around the torso, I guess we wanted to have a closer look," Gaylard said. "Keli's stomach was very large." Under cross-examination from Lane's barrister, Keith Chapple, SC, Gaylard agreed she had been "spying" on Lane. "You were a long-term buddy for years but you did not say anything to her?" Chapple asked. Gaylard agreed. "If Keli was pregnant and playing, that was her decision, it had nothing to do with me," she said. The fact that Lane did not tell her she was pregnant "made me think she didn't want my help and it was none of my business," Gaylard said. Earlier, a witness, who cannot be named for legal reasons, said he had a sexual relationship with Lane for about six weeks to two months around the middle of 1994. But he said it was not until 2005 that he found out he was the father of Lane's first child, whom she adopted out. "At any time during or after your relationship with Keli Lane did you become aware that she was pregnant?" asked prosector Mark Tedeschi QC.

The man said he gave evidence at the 2005 inquest into the disappearance of Tegan Lane and afterwards provided a DNA sample. "Subsequently, were you informed that you are the father of (Lane's first baby)?" Tedeschi asked. The man said he was. "Did that come as a complete surprise to you?" Tedeschi asked. "Yes, it sure did," he replied. The trial is continuing. |
Story of 2nd Child Pool mates found the bump in Keli's story By Matthew Thompson June 28, 2005 Keli Lane's three pregnancies may have slipped under the radar of her parents, close friends and even her boyfriend, but her fellow water polo players were more observant. Stacey Gaylard told Westmead Coroner's Court yesterday that Ms Lane "looked huge around the torso" and that she and the Sydney Olympics gold medallist Taryn Woods suspected she was pregnant. When they saw Ms Lane wearing a towel over her swimsuit in the stifling summer heat of the aquatic centre at Homebush Bay, they decided to investigate deeper. "Taryn and I both put goggles on and swam underwater to confirm our suspicions. I saw Keli underwater and from her body shape I had no doubt Keli must have been pregnant," she said. From what they saw in the summer of 1994-95 she found it hard to believe Ms Lane's boyfriend, Duncan Gillies, did not know of the pregnancy. Yesterday would have been Ms Lane's first questioning under oath on the suspected death of her daughter Tegan. According to the State Coroner, John Abernethy, she has told a "litany" of lies to police, adoption agents and health workers. But instead of facing questions, she wept beside her father as Mr Abernethy abruptly adjourned the inquest to September 12 - the same day as her missing child's ninth birthday.

Two of them, a daughter born in 1995 and a son born in 1999, were legally given up for adoption. However, Ms Lane did not register Tegan's birth, and Tegan has not been seen since Ms Lane left Auburn Hospital with her two days after giving birth.

Last week Mr Gillies testified to having had sex with her during his relationship with Ms Lane, which lasted from 1994 to 1998. Mr Abernethy also ordered police to conduct a forensic investigation of Ms Lane's car. Ms Lane's mother, Sandra Lane, told the inquest she had not noticed her daughter's pregnancies. Nor had she asked Ms Lane about them since she found out about the police investigation last year. "I have had a very distressing year with several difficult things that happened, and when I have tried to approach it I would get very upset," Mrs Lane said. |
Story Of 3rd Child Keli Lane and her baby 'secrets' - friends not told of pregnancy Lisa Davies From:The Daily Telegraph August 27, 2010 12:00AM THEY had known one another since they were kids, but that was not enough for Keli Lane to confide her biggest secret to them, a court heard yesterday. Lane, accused of murdering her second-born baby, became tearful yesterday as Olympic water polo stars Taryn Woods and Bronwyn Mayer (now Smith) gave evidence at her Supreme Court trial. Ms Woods said she had known Lane since they were about 15 and described the pair as "very good friends". They played water polo together for the Balmain club and for NSW between 1993 and 2000, but Ms Woods agreed with Justice Anthony Whealy yesterday that Lane had never represented Australia at an open level. Ms Woods said women's water polo was admitted as an Olympic sport in October 1997, but that she could "not recall specifically" ever having had a conversation with Lane about her ambition to play. However, she said she had noticed her friend had put on weight but admitted never mentioning it to her, or suspecting she was carrying a child. Mrs Smith said she too had noticed weight gain because "I saw her in a swim suit" at training. But she too confessed she had said nothing about it to Lane. Lane, 35, appeared to hold back tears numerous times during the evidence. She has pleaded not guilty to murdering her baby Tegan in 1996. The Crown alleges Lane murdered baby Tegan in 1996, in part due to a desire to represent Australia at the 2000 Olympics. The Crown alleges she gave birth three times in the 1990s, keeping all pregnancies secret from her family, friends and lovers. Lane has also pleaded not guilty to three charges of perjury relating to two other children she put up for adoption either side of Tegan's birth. The jury also heard from the biological father of her third child, who told the court he was just 19 when he had a four-to-six month relationship with Lane, four years his senior. The father of the third child, who cannot be identified, told the court the pair were together after Lane's relationship with footballer Duncan Gillies broke up in 1998. The man said he had no idea Lane had fallen pregnant during their relationship - his first "adult" one - and only found out he was the child's father two years ago, when he was asked to supply DNA. The trial before Justice Whealy resumes on Monday. |
