Rohen James Hanson, 41, pleaded not guilty to murder over the death of his partner Dee Annear in a bush hut in September 2021.
The family of a woman killed during a camping trip on the NSW mid-north coast will have to wait longer for a judicial resolution after a jury was unable to deliver a verdict for her alleged murderer.
Hanson falsely claimed in a triple-zero call and then to police that his partner had been injured in a ute accident and later died at the hut, jurors heard during the trial. Prosecutors alleged during the trial at Coffs Harbour that Hanson and Annear had a fraught relationship. After her death, forensic examination found Annear had multiple injuries consistent with blunt-force trauma.Leaders in crisis control after Sydney bishop stabbing attack
