This is not simply a story about a horrifying miscarriage of justice. It is also a story about one of the most corrupt officers in British history and the police establishment that allowed him to thrive in his criminality and then protected him. It is about a justice system so indifferent to the fates of the men wrongfully convicted that it did nothing to clear their names for almost 47 years.
Wild. All these people had their lives ruined because of those officers. Had to live the rest of their lives in fear and burdened by a false conviction. I can’t imagine going through that.
