A misdiagnosed murder P1 - Henry Keogh

Henry Keogh is an Australian convicted of murder. He grew up in Adelaide, South Australia and was educated at Saint Ignatius College and briefly at the School of Dentistry at The University of Adelaide.

In 1995 he was sentenced to 26 years in prison for the 1994 murder of his 29-year-old fiancée, Anna-Jane Cheney, then head of Professional Conduct at the Law Society of South Australia: it was alleged that Keogh had planned the murder for over two years.

Mr Keogh and his family have always maintained his innocence, and raised their doubts regarding some of the evidence upon which the conviction was based. Mainly that of South Australia's former Chief Forensic Pathologist Dr Manock.

Henry admitted to signing five life insurance policies on behalf of Cheney. Whereas the prosecution alleged the combined value of $1.15 million AUD was motive for the murder, Henry says that these were submitted to prevent insurance agencies he had established from lapsing, and that the amount eligible to claim was closer to $400,000. The prosecution would conceded during the trial that Anna-Jane was aware of at least two of these policies.

After over 20 years Henry would subsequently be released from prison on appeal, the prosecution would look to take him back to court on the charges but it would never eventuate.

This is the story of Henry Keogh as told by him.
