Support for Andy's Law

Support for Andy's Law

The Issue

Coming up 17 years Andrew Jones, just 18 years of age was floored by a punch and fatally cracked his head on the pavement during a night out in city centre (Liverpool). His killer has never been brought to justice, with a group suspected of the attack accused of concocting a story to cover each others, something which has been called the wall of silence. The parents of Andrew Jones are initiating a judicial review into the police and CPS procedures that were taken at the time, that allowed crutial evidence to be lost. We would like to show the high court this case and other cases of unsolved homicide are in the public interest.

Andrew and Christine are hoping for a change in law. Evidence that is withheld should make somebody equally culpable to murder, help make it law; Andy's Law.

Whilst the Jones family appreciate and thank you for support from all corners of the globe in order for the petition to have the desired impact would request that only UK residents sign this petition. For those overseas wishing to help; sharing is caring.
