After months of controversy, CrimeNet claims to have been cleared by a Supreme Court judge of prejudicing court proceeding by publishing details about a murder suspect on the Internet.
Australian lawmakers will form a working party to examine CrimeNet and its future operation as an online criminal database in Australia.
CrimeNet -- the site that sells the details of convicted criminals -- has accused the Australian federal government of double standards on the eve of an Attorneys General meeting where the Web site's future will be decided.
Despite demanding the closure of controversial Web site CrimeNet, the Victorian government is in fact conducting a similar line of business -- selling records based on court proceedings.
Shut down or else. That's the message Australia's legal establishment is sending CrimeNet, a Web site that sells criminals' details. The Victorian Attorney General is determined to banish the site.
