Somewhere, lost in the vortex of thousands of Brittany Higgins’ text messages being leaked to media outlets, is this simple truth.

Whatever you think of how Ms Higgins, in her own words, “weaponised” her own story, nobody deserves to have the private contents of their phone disgorged across the media.

It is a terrifying precedent if we are to accept that the price of ever speaking to the media is that your entire phone is “fair game”.

There has been a striking lack of curiosity about how Ms Higgins’ text messages have been finding their way into media outlets.

It extends all the way to the board of inquiry led by Walter Sofronoff KC, charged with investigating the trial and the aftermath.
