Kathleen Folbigg waits on compensation 18 months after release

Kathleen Folbigg is still waiting for a decision over her compensation, 18 months after being released from jail. She was released in June 2023 after serving 20 years of a 25-year sentence. The 57-year-old was pardoned after doubt was cast over the deaths of her four children. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, Ms Folbigg says the drawn-out process has rubbed “extra salt” in the wound. NSW MPs allegedly broadly support an "act of grace" payment which could tally into the millions.
