- Keli Lane visited her father after he suffered a stroke.
- Her parole application was refused under NSW law.
- Lane continues to maintain that she is innocent.

## Summary

Keli Lane, serving a sentence for the murder of her newborn daughter Tegan, was allowed to visit her father in hospital after he suffered a stroke. The visit has sharpened her worry that he may die before she is released, while friends say she is frustrated at remaining in prison.

Lane has spent nearly 16 years behind bars and was eligible for parole in May 2024, but her application was refused under New South Wales’ “no body, no parole” law. The law requires convicted murderers to help authorities locate victims’ remains; Lane maintains she is innocent and says she gave Tegan to the baby’s biological father. Her father, Robert Lane, has publicly supported her and questioned her conviction.
