Unusually stupid remarks for you, Giok. The reason the plods don't often charge anyone innocent with five murders is that they don't often charge anyone with five murders.

And what has the figure five got to do with it? Were you not able to sleep easier when Colin Stagg was charged? Or Stefan Kiszco? Kiszco, you may remember, spent 16 years in prison for murdering Lesley Molseed, during which you presumably slumbered peacefully. Another guy has now been charged with that crime, so if the police are right as ever, she must have been murdered twice. Then there were the 11 innocents caught up in the Guilford bomb trial fiascos. And the Cardiff three, And ... but oh, the list is endless.

British justice is perhaps no worse than in several other developed nations, but none so far as I am aware comes with the smug hypocrisy that characterises the British system.

Here's a BBC report in which the agency responsible for prosecuting Stephen Wright urges restraint in commenting about him, on the basis that like anyone else, he is innocent until/unless proved guilty.
