I find it sickening Heather Kennett will get away with this, which is why this source MUST go to the Police with their information. If you've already done this, try the Australian Federal Police.

So you'd think this is what Peter Campbell from Kelly & Co Lawyers has done.. But not entirely; Heather Kennett did recently quit her job from Eastern Courier, so something must be working?
