Summary of Case:	"Corey Norman was wrongly convicted in July 2016 of possessing a prohibited drug and possessing a prescribed restricted substance in Sydney, Australia. The prosecution of Norman, a NRL star, was based on the discovery of drugs in his pocket at The Star casino in May 2016. A friend with Norman at the time told security guards that the drugs belonged to him. Norman pled guilty in the Downing Centre Local Court, and he was sentenced to AUS$800. Norman appealed.
