Watching this case makes my blood boil. That poor bloke spent over a decade locked up for nothing, and now they're quibbling over wording? Justice my arse.
It's not quibbling, it's the law. Emotions don't fix judicial process.
Honestly, what a load of shit. The courts need to be held accountable.
Yeah nah the whole system is a joke. They'll probably find some technicality to keep him in there longer.
But do we know all the facts? Or just what the media prints? I'm not saying the system's perfect but let's not jump to conclusions.
get stuffed with that attitude, mate.

lol you sound like a cop
I actually know someone who worked on this case. They reckon the Supreme Court ruling was solid. Defence saying 'at all costs' is just desperate.
I'm just saying there's two sides. But yeah, the system's let people down before.
at all costs? ffs they just don't want to admit they stuffed up.
two sides? one guy lost years of his life. that's the only side that matters.
Hope they do the right thing for once. Give the man his life back and compensation.
Exactly. He's not getting those years back.
