Retired US doctor Thomas Chris Lang has lost his High Court appeal against his conviction for the murder of Brisbane Socialite Maureen Boyce. Lang was found guilty twice of stabbing Boyce five times in her apartment in 2015. The High Court dismissed his appeal, stating that the jury's verdict was reasonable and that the forensic pathologist's evidence supported the prosecution's case. Lang's lawyers argued that Boyce had taken her own life. The judges unanimously found that the evidence presented at trial was sufficient to exclude suicide as a reasonable hypothesis.
