South Australian parliamentarian loses appeal on conviction of $400,000 not-for-profit theft

South Australian Independent MP Troy Bell is quitting parliament after losing an appeal to overturn convictions for stealing more than $400,000 from not-for-profit educational organisations he headed. While Bell waits to learn if he'll be jailed for his offending, voters in his southeast seat are also yet to hear whether they'll go to the polls for a by-election before the state election in March.
