(image; Media Wales) On 14th February 1988 Cardiff girl Lynette White was brutally murdered by Jeffrey Gafoor who escaped justice for many years. In a gross miscarriage of justice. five men from Butetown, Cardiff were arrested despite decrying their innocence. 

In 1990 three of these, Tony Paris (who recently passed away), Stephen Miller and Yusef Abdullahi, ended up being convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment for a crime they did not commit.

1992 saw the Cardiff Three released when the Court of Appeal ruled their convictions as unsafe. The nightmare was over but the damage was done and still reverberates through the core of 'Tiger Bay' to this day. 

In 2003, justice caught up with Jeffrey Gafoor when his DNA pinned him firmly to the crime. He was sentenced to life yet, despite being deemed 'not suitable' for release' he is now allowed out on 'day release'??

This is the man who stabbed a young woman over 50 times for 30 quid. Who lived with his guilt as a whole community heaved and suffered because of HIS crime, and we're supposed to be ok with that!??

He cannot be released. He has to remain behind bars. For the sake of all those who were, and continue to be devastated by what he did, these merry outings are nothing less than an insult!

For Lynette and the dark shadow that Jeffrey Gafoor still casts, please sign and let's keep him where he belongs. LOCKED UP!
