The #PostOfficeScandal is a stain on the British justice system.

This book dives into how legal professionals failed in their duties, silenced the truth and even turned against the victims, including accounts from victims who were advised to enter guilty pleas. John Hyde

Met Police finally get full government funding for national Post Office investigation #PostOfficeScandal www.computerweekly.com/news/3666511...

Lee Castleton: ‘Some wonderful news this morning. It has been confirmed that the required funding for the police investigation into the post office scandal has been given. Now for accountability.
True to your word [ @andyburnham.bsky.social ]
Very much appreciated.’

Would an innocent person ever plead guilty?

For some defendants, the choice is tough:
Plead guilty early, or go to trial
Neither choice makes someone less innocent.
But either way, there is a price.
Which would you pick?

Disgraceful conduct by all the Executives involved in the Post Office Scandal and its subsequent cover-up.

This sub-human Paula Vennells should be made to hand back all the millions she received in bonuses and pay-offs etc.
#BBCBreakfast #PostOfficeScandal

As of today *nobody* has been tried, convicted and sent to prison for the corporate conduct at the heart of the #PostOfficeScandal.

Not one executive.

None.

Lives were turned upside down; innocent people were living with extreme stress for years; there were 13 suicides.

John Hyde reveals how the real #PostOfficeScandal was that their lawyers knew the evidence was flawed but failed to act.
