	A Cry in the Night
		They were the words that Lindy Chamberlain had screamed out into the flness of the cold night in a camping ground close to Ayers Rock, Central Australia, on the night of August 17, when she discovered that her nearly ten-week-old baby, Azaria had been taken by a dingo.
		Lindy desperately searched in amongst the blankets that had fallen to the ground, she might be hurt.
		Lindy ran from the tent moments later, although it seemed like an eternity, to see a dingo running off to the right, around the front of the car, and away into the scrub.

	The Trial of Lindy and Michael Chamberlain: A Commentary
		Tears slid down Lindy's face as she described the clothing her daughter was wearing the last night she laid her down: "She had a white knitted Marquis jacket, with a pale lemon edging." Phillips asked Lindy to place her index finger next to Cameron's exhibit which, the professor claimed, showed bloodied fingers.
		Among those invited by the Chamberlains were defense witnesses and lawyers, a couple whose daughter was taken from their car by a dingo, and journalists and politicians who had supported them during their long ordeal.
		Lindy Chamberlain wrote in the last pages of her 1990 book, "And now we wait, we wait for the Northern Territory to pay us what they owe." That day finally came two years later when she received $1.3 million in compensation from the Northern Territory government for wrongful imprisonment.

		Lindy Chamberlain was convicted on 29 October 1982 of murdering her baby daughter, Azaria.
		I argue that each of these factors influenced the jury's decision to convict Chamberlain but that each factor and the outcome of the case was also affected by the jury's assessment of Chamberlain as a mother.
		Chamberlain presented her own view of herself as innocent yet angry at the misappropriation of her daughter's memory and at the damage that the legal process and media attention had inflicted on her family.

		Although Lindy Chamberlain is clearly the heroine in the opera, composer Moya Henderson worries about its effect on a family that has already suffered greatly.
		Chamberlain has so far declined to comment on the opera, but she is expected to see one of its four performances.
		Part of the hostility Chamberlain provoked was a backlash to 1970's feminism, she argues, even though some of her most trenchant critics were women.

	A Cry in the Dark
		When Lindy Chamberlain claimed that a dingo had made off with her baby (the phrase made famous by the film's ads: "That dingo's got my baby!"), many Australians felt it as a personal affront.
		The Chamberlains were not only victims of a flagrant misprision of justice, which Lindy's release from gaol did something, however small, to redress, they were condemned just as ruthlessly by the public.
		Lindy was tried and convicted of her daughter's murder, suffered imprisonment while pregnant, had to deliver her baby in gaol, and was given a whole hour to hold her newborn daughter before she was taken from her.

		Lindy, the wife of a Seventh Day Adventist pastor, is converted into the voice of a New Age spirituality, pleading not to disturb the dingo spirit.
		Lindy’s cross-examination comes close to being dramatic but its cut-and-thrust is clogged by the operatic device of repeated syllables and phrases.
		The surety of her mezzo established a presence equally appropriate for the representation of Lindy as earth mother.

	One of the strangest cases in Australian history gets even stranger. \| Samizdata.net
		The events of the resulting Azaria Chamberlain case, in which Chamberlain was ultimately convicted of the murder of her daughter, and the conviction was later quashed after the forensic evidence was completely discredited, are epochal and notorious in the country's psyche.
		Lindy Chamberlain had been calm and collected after losing her baby, and had later sold her story to a women's magazine, which somehow wasn't "appropriate behaviour" in the circumstances.
		Lindy was left to take the fall for the death of her only girl because somebody didn't destroy a dangerous animal due to personal attachment.

		Two years later a heavily pregnant Lindy was led weeping from the dock of the NT Supreme Court in Darwin after a jury had found her guilty of murdering her nine-week-old baby.
		The Chamberlains were convicted by decidedly dodgy forensic evidence against a welter of clear eyewitness evidence against the dingo from a bunch of tourists and a number of Aboriginal trackers led by an old man, Nipper Winmatti.
		Lindy Chamberlain, now pardoned and remarried, would later say in her autobiography that she would still be languishing in Darwin's Berrimah Jail if it were not for Collins' public and parliamentary intervention.

	BBC ON THIS DAY \| 29 \| 1982: Mother jailed in dingo baby murder
		Lindy Chamberlain has been found guilty of the murder of her nine-week-old daughter after a jury dismissed her claim that a dingo took the baby.
		Her husband, Michael Chamberlain, was found guilty of being an accessory to the murder of baby Azaria, but has not yet been sentenced.
		In an earlier inquest the judge accepted the Chamberlains claim that a dingo had taken their baby but further investigations by British pathologists showed the wounds, indicated by bloodstains on the baby's clothes, could not have been caused by a dingo and a second investigation was started.

		While Richardson believes Lindy was innocent of the charge, he also believes she and Michael were hiding something and his book explores their behaviour before, during and after the tragedy.
		Lindy Chamberlain was subsequently acquitted after several years in jail when a matinee jacket worn by Azaria at the time of her death, was discovered in the desert.
		Not only that, but the elder son, Aidan, was with Lindy the whole time she was supposedly murdering the baby in the car and neither of them showed any distress when they returned from the car to the barbecue and then the baby was heard to cry.

	Grant me closure - Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton :: ABC Northern Territory
		As Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton spoke to Annie Gastin on ABC Local Radio the Northern Territory Coroner ruled out re-opening the inquest into Azaria's death, saying it was not satisfied with the evidence in a police report into recent claims made by Melbourne Pensioner Frank Cole.
		Lindy Chamberlain-Creighton has re-released her autobiography "Through My Eyes", which was originally published in 1980.
		She says she had the forensic facts checked by analysts and the information in the book about the night Azaria disappeared is written from a number of people's points of view, and is the most accurate it can get.

		Corby was just five when the 34-year-old Lindy Chamberlain was sentenced to life imprisonment with hard labour for the murder of her baby daughter.
		In Chamberlain's case, the allure of the story was almost allegorical, given the possibility of infanticide, the legendary desert location and the presence of the despised dingo, the Chamberlains' unusual religion and the persistent rumours that the baby was dressed in fl and her name meant "sacrifice in the wilderness".
		Popular suspicion was fuelled by Chamberlain's refusal to cry and by her bizarre behaviour that of her husband as the court case rolled on.
