If Liam Allan's barrister hadn't found thousands of exculpatory text messages from his accuser the day before trial, he may well have been wrongfully convicted Dame @VeraBaird is ultimately responsible for independently locating wrongful convictions in the UK @EmpowerInnocent

“”Sir Richard agrees: “They thought, in the very initial stages, this was going to be the greatest police investigation of all time. There was a terrific buzz, and they were all up for it. They thought, ‘I’ll become a chief constable on the back of this.’”

Following the early release of Carl Beech, the Bramall family, Lady Brittan, the Sir Edward Heath Charity Foundation & I have written to @DavidLammy calling for a review of victim status so those targeted by perversions of justice are finally recognised in law.

Many more who have been through the system could instil valuable change. Especially when it comes to working with prisoners who maintain innocence.

Ouch. It's true that @VeraBaird has had many chances to at least try to put things right at the @ccrcupdate, but seems to prefer to post on X about 'women's issues' So also yet another failure by @UKLabour in appointing an activist lawyer rather than an unbiased figure

Charlotte Proudman has published to all three of her 'X' accounts a serious accusation about a barrister and warned people off instructing him. Unfortunately, she provides a link to the wrong barrister, who has the same name. Some hours ago the barrister in question requested she delete. Now his Chambers have had to repeat the request. For someone so concerned about online abuse and harassment, this is very strange behaviour. I trust she will delete and apologise.

It’s a huge problem, Nick. I’ve spent almost 25 years advising clients who have been falsely accused of sexual offences, including lots of young men. I’ve seen family breakups, destroyed careers and suicides. It’s one of the worst things that can happen to an innocent person. There are many, many dangerous predatory men out there who should be found and jailed, but I think the ‘believe all women’ mantra does more harm than good. False accusers like Stacey Sharples and Carl Breech do genuine victims of sex crime a terrible disservice. @NickBuckleyMBE

Hey @OVWJustice Remember when I tried to talk about false accusers and you pushed back at me with great force? You told me this rarely happens! 😡 Happens every day all over the world. 4 1/2 years in prison for destroying the lives of 10 men and the countless number of family and friends that love them! She is now your role model—a true product of organizations like yours all over the world. 😡

Too often false accusers receive lenient sentences. Justice should mean parity: a false accuser should face the same punishment their victims would have received had the lie prevailed. @FACTukorg
