The only good thing to come out of all this is that people are starting to develop a very serious and healthy mistrust in our judicial system.
Things can only get better,aqlthough from this far down the climb will be a long and hard one.
Good luck on your own appeal JK,that vital bit of evidence is just waiting to come to light;)

I hope you are right, SE, but how much more vital does evidence have to be than proving you were in a different continent at the time of an alleged crime?

I agree that it does appear to be getting a bit more fashionable for the media to highlight miscarriages of justice. If that continues, it can only be a good thing.

Just why aren't these police officers prosecuted? In the Stefan Kiszko case, the Police knew he could never have committed the rape and murder of a little girl because he was INFERTILE, yet they still convinced the CPS to go ahead with the trial, just hiding the evidence that proved that they knew they were punishing an innocent man.

Oh, from Wikipedia:

In 1994 the two senior officers in charge of the investigation, Ronald Outteridge and Dick Holland were formally charged with suppressing evidence against Kiszko, namely the results of scientific tests on semen taken from the victim's body and from the accused. On May Day, 1995 the case was challenged by defence barristers, arguing that the case was an abuse of process and that charges should be stayed as the passage of time had, ironically, made a fair trial impossible. The presiding magistrate agreed and as the case has never appeared before a jury, the law regards the accused as innocent.

JK, weren't the claims against you from a longer time frame?

(Dick Holland was also a Police Officer who mucked up the Ripper inquiry, IIRC.)
