Petition to end the ‘Craigavon 2’ miscarriage of justice
Posted by admin on June 29, 2014
Brendan McConville and John Paul Wootton are serving life in prison for
the killing of a police officer in the North of Ireland in 2009.
“No evidence exists linking the men to the killing; instead the
prosecution case hinged on the testimony of a paid perjurer who is
discredited by his own father and whose eyewitness testimony is
medically impossible.”
Both men were found guilty and convicted by a single judge without a
jury under special powers in a ‘Diplock Court’.
“Despite the original prosecution case being destroyed during a two-week
appeal hearing in October 2013, both men had their appeals dismissed on
29th May 2014.”
A high profile campaign calling for Justice for the Craigavon Two headed
by iconic miscarriage of justice victim Gerry Conlon of the Guildford 4
continues to campaign for this miscarriage of justice to be rectified.
We ask you to support Justice for the Craigavon Two by helping us end
this miscarriage of justice.
Please sign the petition and ask everyone you know to do likewise:
———–
To:
Chris Grayling MP, Lord Chancellor and Secretary of State for Justice
David Ford MLA, Stormont Minister of Justice
End the miscarriage of justice of the ‘Craigavon Two’ Brendan McConville
and John Paul Wootton.
Sincerely,
[Your name]
