The first volume is a report from INUK’s symposium which highlighted 45 cases of alleged victims of wrongful conviction as part of a campaign for urgent reform of the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC). The event hosted talks from – among others - Susan May and Eddie Gilfoyle, who are widely believed to be innocent of the murders they were convicted of, and Paddy Hill of the Birmingham Six who was fitted-up with others by the police for an IRA bombing and served 16 years in prison as a result. The report provides an overview of the papers presented at the event as well as two papers that were submitted afterwards. The dossier volume details 44 cases of current victims of wrongful conviction which have been refused a referral back to the Court of Appeal by the Criminal Cases Review Commission at least once, despite doubts about the evidence that led to their convictions.

The two volumes are available as a free download:
