**When Rob Storey first appears in 1994, he is apparently returning to Summer Bay and knows everybody.

* WrongfulAccusationInsurance:
** Inexplicably applied to Kane Philips, who went on the run after being framed for armed robbery, resorted to several actual armed robberies to provide for Kirsty and their son over the next three years before being recaptured and tried for those as well. Despite pleading guilty to protect Kirsty, he later appeals and somehow gets released despite having no way of exonerating himself for any of the robberies.
** A somewhat more justified case in 2023 with Irene, who learns that her lodger Harper is hiding her sister Dana, who's on the run from a false robbery charge. While Dana is soon exonerated and the DirtyCop responsible is exposed, Harper and Irene are still on the hook for harbouring a fugitive. However, at Irene's trial, while the judge acknowledges that she was technically obligated to turn Dana in, he takes into account the police corruption and the fact that she was only involved in these events fairly late in the day, and ends up dismissing the charge.

Added DiffLines:

* LimitedSocialCircle: A sort-of example. Summer Bay is an incredibly close-knit community where it is often difficult to separate the personal and the professional. This was especially evident when Annie Campbell suffered from alcohol poisoning: her brother Geoff's adult best friend Tony Holden rang the ambulance, while Tony's son Jack was the police officer investigating her case and Tony's wife Rachel Armstrong was the doctor treating her.
