Bad news for justice 4 Years, 1 Month ago  
www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9698711...victions-tumble.html

''Deeply ashamed' ministers apologise for convicting just 1,439 rapists out of 128,000 rapes committed in the UK in a year and 43,187 that were reported to police'


'The review blamed the collapse on intrusive police probes into victims' digital communications and court and investigative delays.'

Are we to assume 'victims' are simply to be believed, and what is often the only evidence to back up claims will be ignored?

In the same article the reason why we have these extensive checks.

'A government source said there was concern the justice system had become over-cautious after the 2017 case of Liam Allen, a student wrongly accused of rape.

It emerged that a huge database of electronic messages had not been disclosed to his defence team which proved the complainant had pestered him for 'casual sex'. Sources said the 'pendulum had swung too far the other way'.'
