End the miscarriage of justice of the 'Craigavon Two'
End the miscarriage of justice of the 'Craigavon Two'
The Issue
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 descredited 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 was headed by iconic miscarriage of justice victim Gerry Conlon of the Guildford 4, campaigning for this miscarriage of justice to be rectified, Gerry was chair of the JFTC2 Group and signed this petition days before his passing (RIP).
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.
