“Met Guilty Over Killing Of Jean Charles de Menezes”
Yeah, it’s called Murder. It doesn’t take an Old Bailey trial to tell us these fools were out of line. Like anything’s going to be done about it anyway. Appease the public with a show trial and nothing’s changed as per usual.

Anorak,
apparently the trial
‘was nearly derailed after an armed police raid on the home of a juror’s ex-boyfriend in the second week of the case, in which the female juror’s baby was taken away’
Things like this make it hard to be a satirist…
