Tis true!
The evidence was rather flimsy to say the least,but the hounding press bayed for blood...and got it.
All the hallmarks of being tried by 'Murdoch jury',how can it be possible to get a fair trial with all that publicity?
It joins the long list of unsafe convictions,the Birmingham 6,Guilford 4,JK...well there's also more of course.
Thanks Tim

Read the 2 page story in today's Daily Express - no one (not even one of the Jurors !) was really convinced of his guilt !

There seems to be a feeling on this thread that British justice used to be beyond reproach, and has gone down the pan lately.
You can trawl through history as far back as you like and find miscarriages of justice. We used to burn witches after all. No point yearning for the old days. We need to rip it up and start again.

How can someone live with themselves after knowingly ruining someone's life by bending evidence or making false witness?
The knowledge inside them must destroy them.

I have watched all this horrible stuff going on in absolute horror. How many more people sent to prison because they "probably" did it or they "look" the part.

Dear oh dear.
