Bail process should include relatives, says murder victim's family

The family of a teenager killed, ask they be included in considering bail for the youth charged with the killing, after he took up residence 1km from the family home.

Marie Dyhrberg said it is in the defense's own interests to ensure clients are bailed as far away as possible from their alleged victims and their families because it protects a client from confrontation and allegations of improper contact.
