It was all her fault

Sakelarios “Charlie” Kambouris says so.  Giving evidence at the inquest into the death of Dianne Brimble, he said, when asked his opinion about her death:

“I think there was a 40-year-old woman who had the option to leave, decided to stay.

“Partying with some younger men and had a misadventure that now has brought this - what could have been a happier time - into a chaotic time.”

While on the subject of blaming everyone else for his troubles, he also had a shot at the way the inquest has been conducted, saying he thought innocent families and taxpayers had been hurt because of her (the coroner’s) approach to the inquest.

Kambouris is the seventh of the eight persons of interest to give evidence at the inquest.  The eighth, Mark Wilhelm, has indicated to the inquest that he will exercise his right to decline to give evidence on the grounds that he might incriminate himself.
