Update

For reasons unknown I have been unable to access my blog recently. I was told it was under investigation!!! I did try to post a comment on the successful result for Barry George but obviously that comment did not go in?? However I just wanted to let people know I still await the CCRC decision - the waiting is so stressful, but as long as the decision is positive I must be patient. As always I want to thank all those who continue to send messages of support.

Barry George

[this message got lost in the post for a couple of weeks]

The right result today, that eventually Barry has been cleared. He now has to face the difficulties of the damaging effects of prison and being wrongfully convicted, it will not be easy. I was disgusted at the statement from both the CPS and the police - yet not surprised. They may not welcome today's verdict but as well as, and rightly so, expressing sympathy towards Jill Dando's family they should also show the same respect for Barry and his family. It was and still is the police's duty to have found the right person who killed Jill ,and had they done that correctly then both families would not have been tortured for so long. I hope Barry can get his life back together now he is free from the confines of jail.
