Not trying to be sensationalist.

That's probably more likely than not. How many times I wonder.

This is one of reasons why capital punishment should never be implemented - innocent people are often convicted.
In addition, it's ineffective as a deterrent, and it allows the State to kill its own citizens. That's a dangerous road to go down...

Plenty other ways for them to kill citizens.

Justice, at last.
38 years wrongly imprisoned — and now a cell opens up.
Just in time to house someone convicted of the new capital offence: mean comments on Facebook.

Well that comment is an insult to the Judiciary, so expect your summons to court shortly....

You have the right to thank for that. They were the ones who started complaining to the police about antifa threatening them on social media back in the early 2010s and now here we are.

Heard on R4 that they want to pay him £1m. That’s just over £26k per year he was imprisoned. What a joke.

I keep rereading this and thinking, did the police statement get abridged or something?
