AC3.2 – draw conclusions from information
Just Verdicts:
The jury will find criminal defendants guilty and innocent defendants not guilty in a just verdict. They are obtained
during a period of time during which earlier trials or accusations failed to result in a conviction. Given that it took
the court more than 18 years to find Stephen Lawrence guilty, one may claim that his case serves as an example
of a fair verdict. A group of 5 white guys killed Stephen with a knife, but after 18 years, only 2 of them were found
guilty. The cops in this instance had disregarded a lot of evidence.
The floorboards of the suspects' home were never removed despite an informant telling the police that they kept
their blades beneath them. Police personnel also messed up a list of suspects that Stephen's mother had given
them. They also disregarded tips they received concerning prospective suspects. Additionally, it was discovered
afterwards that no first aid was administered to Stephen at the site by the policemen, and the police investigation
didn't start until four days after the murder. Two years after the inquest, a judicial investigation led to the
publication of the Mcpherson report, which determined that the Met police had an institutional racism. The jury
was instructed by the judges to find the defendants not guilty in the initial trial, which prevented the prosecution
from retrying the defendants. Before the double jeopardy law went into effect in 2005, suspects could only be
tried once, even if fresh evidence had come to light. One of the suspects' collar was found to have blood on it,
and this resulted in the conviction of ⅖ suspects. Only ⅖ suspects were found guilty in this case, despite the fact
that it took a very long time and that the police disregarded a significant quantity of evidence. Throughout the
whole investigation, the cops were inept.
MOJ:
"The erroneous conviction of an innocent individual" is the definition of a miscarriage of justice. A miscarriage of
justice may have occurred for a variety of reasons, including evidentiary issues like contamination, guilty pleas,
false confessions, and jury verdicts. Stefen Kiszko is an illustration of a case where a miscarriage of justice took
place. He was found guilty of raping and killing Lesley, a 14-year-old girl. Four schoolgirls came forward after he
was charged and claimed that he had exposed himself to them the day before he had admitted to the act. Later,
he admitted that he had been coerced into making a confession; he had also been interviewed without a lawyer
present, and his demands for his mother's presence had been ignored. In court, Stefan's attorney attempted to
plead reduced culpability on the basis that his client had the mental capacity of a 7-year-old and that he had
never met Lesley. Due to Stefen's impotence, evidence presented during the appeal demonstrated that the
material found on the body could not have come from him.
Additionally, it was later discovered that the four females who claimed he had exposed himself to them were lying
and had made up their claims "just for laughs". After his DNA was discovered on the body, the true killer was
identified thirty years later. This case exemplifies a miscarriage of justice since he was convicted despite the fact
that the semen detected on the deceased was not his because he was unable to erect. The four females also
provided false testimony, which resulted in an incorrect conviction.
Additionally, he was coerced into a confession, and all of this information was improperly considered when the
decision was reached, which resulted in a miscarriage of justice for Stefan.
Timothy Evans is another example that exemplifies a miscarriage of justice. For killing his wife and daughter, he
was hanged. The woman and children were discovered wrapped in a tablecloth, and the police discovered a
bone in their apartment's yard. He had confessed three times to the police. He said in the first that he had given
his wife a mixture intended to kill her pregnant child, but it had instead killed her, and he had dumped her body in
a manhole. In the second confession, he said that he had urged a neighbour to get an abortion while he was
abroad, but that when he came back, the woman had already passed tragically. In the third chapter, he said that
he had strangled both her and his daughter before hiding their bodies in the laundry room, but they had since
been moved. A fake confession was made in the third admission. Timothy maintained his innocence throughout
the trial even though he was handed the death punishment even though he had been accused of the murders by
his neighbour, who had an albi.
Police disregarded evidence that children were discovered on the street playing with a skull, which raises an
evidentiary problem. Additionally, police forced current builders to repudiate claims that there were no remains in
the wash house and that they must have been relocated. It might be claimed that the jury's 40-minute
deliberation period in court was insufficient and that not all relevant elements were taken into account because of
this. Due to evidential concerns, this case saw a miscarriage of justice [police ignored the evidence and also
forced witnesses to withdraw their accounts]. Additionally, the jury barely deliberated for 40 minutes, which can
be viewed as insufficient because they failed to take into account the fact that there were three guilty pleas, one
of which was a fake confession.
Stephen Downing is the third instance that illustrates a moj. Weny Sewell, who had been attacked and sexually
molested, was killed, and he was found guilty. Stephen stated that although though he was 17 years old, he had
the mental capacity of an 11-year-old when he discovered Wendy hurt but still alive. Based on forensic evidence
indicating the attack was what created the blood stains on his clothes, he was found guilty.
Additionally, he was found guilty based on a confession he provided during a 7-hour questioning without a
counsel present. Two scientists who were involved in the case's appeal cast doubt on the forensic evidence
