   S1:E14/12/2011

   Killing Time follows the compelling life story of the infamous Australian lawyer, Andrew Fraser. At the top of his game, Fraser commanded a huge salary and lived the dream whilst defending the most controversial criminals that Australia has ever seen. His ethical ambiguity, cocaine addiction and believing bullshit, finally caught up with him and he lost everything. He was disbarred, discredited, financially bankrupt and spent five years in a maximum security prison for drug smuggling. Killing Time is a fascinating insight into the brutal upheavals of the Australian justice system when the war between the criminal class and a corrupt police force finally became public..
