Amazing!
If anyone want to understand what it means to be the victim of a miscarriage of justice then this is the book for them. If anyone is the victim of a miscarriage of justice then this book will show them hope. Respect to all you angels for working so hard and thank you.

An Inconvenent Truth,
By Tony Napier (Sutton Coldfield, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Judge for Yourself: How Many are Innocent? (Paperback)
Read this book and be disturbed, very disturbed, about the state of justice in Britain - or indeed, anywhere else in the world. It is a pity this author cannot keep her political prejudices apart, because this book should be required reading for every MP of every party - judges and policement too. Our system of justice is fallible and it is not just corrupt police officers or prejudiced judges at fault: juries too can be prejudiced and give perverse verdicts accordingly. A study in Canada (remember that the Canadian and US systems of justice are based on ouurs) of nearly a thousand people called for jury service found that over 40% would not give the benefit of the doubt to any person charged with sexual offences against children - or as supposedly 40% of respondents to a similar survey in Britain early last year said about people brought to court for trial (for any form of crime) "They must be guilty, that's why they're here, isn't it?" Not suprisingly, an American study of a smaller sample involving men who have ultimately been proven to be innocent concluded that in the case of actually innocent men charged with crimes, juries on average convict 25% of them.

This review is from: Judge for Yourself: How Many are Innocent? (Paperback)
L A Naylor has obviously looked into and researched the issue very deeply. She writes in a clear, consise manner that keeps her reader interested and absorbed.
