This fresh edition of Satish Sekar’s classic work brings events up to date as at 2017 and includes matters that the author was prevented from publishing sooner. Among other things it deals with the collapse of the 2011 trial of police officers and others concerning the original miscarriage of justice in this case and in a new Epilogue calls for a Truth and Justice Commission. The author shows how this extreme miscarriage of justice destroyed families, divided communities and undermined confidence in the criminal justice system. The book takes the reader from the sadistic killing of Lynette White in Cardiff in 1988, via the subsequent investigation and trial to the aftermath of the folding of the 2011 trial over ‘lost’ documents that later materialised. But above all it deals with the hard scientific facts of the first vindication case of the DNA-age.

On Valentine's Day 1988, a young woman was found horribly murdered in her flat in Cardiff, Wales. Despite the evidence of a single white male criminal, somehow five black men were arrested and tried in the longest criminal trial in British history. Were the men convicted truly the killers? Or were the South Wales Police corrupt and desperate to rid the streets of petty criminals at the cost of letting a real murderer roam free? Peculiar Papers publishes short, succinct and unbiased accounts of interesting events in true crime, supernatural phenomena, extraordinary or forgotten lives, accidents, disasters and more.

Real Cardiff Three written by Peter Finch and has been published by Real Wales this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2009 with Travel categories.
The first volume: Cardiffian Peter Finch discovers the real Cardiff: lost rivers, Roman forts, holy wells, Arthurian knights, itinerant poets, the old race course, the revitalised city centre, the redeveloped Cardiff Bay - 'Europe's most exciting waterfront' - as he travels the city from east to west and north to south. This is offbeat topographical writing, peppered with Finch's poems, which will enthrall the native, the visitor and the armchair traveller. Peter Finch is a poet who has been at the centre of Cardiff's literary life for thirty years. Formerly the manager of the Oriel Bookshop, he is now Director of Academi, the writer's organisation for Wales. In horse racing parlance it's odds on that this book will be just as popular as the first two which went into reprints.

The Dossier written by Michael O'Brien and has been published by Seren this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2021-10-15 with True Crime categories.
The Dossier investigates fifteen cases of proven or alleged miscarriages of justice in south Wales between 1982 and 2016. In the first part of The Dossier Michael O'Brien presents new evidence concerning his own case, which further calls into question the actions of the police which led to his conviction. The second part of the book considers another fourteen cases for a variety of crimes including murder. These cases concern the convictions of twenty-three people, who between them have spent eighty years in prison. The earliest is Anthony Yellen, convicted of murder on a manufactured confession in 1983. The book includes the Welsh conspiracy trial, the case of the Darvell brothers in Swansea, the Cardiff Three, Jonathan Jones, the Merthyr arson case, and the Clydach murders.O'Brien calls into question methods of policing and a judicial system in which too little has changed over the past thirty years, and calls for a judicial inquiry to investigate the culture which has resulted in so many dubious and plainly wrongful convictions. No police officer has been brought to book for their part in these cases, despite the evidence produced for the convictions to be ruled unsafe. Some officers have been involved in more than one of the cases considered, and some have been promoted to senior levels in the force. Many are now retired and are no longer subject to police disciplinary procedures. How, asks O'Brien, could so many important cases have resulted in unsafe conviction, and what can be done to improve procedures in future?

An account of the muder enquiry of 20 year old white prostitute Lynette White who was brutally killed in the early hours of Valentine's Day 1988, this study offers insights into the subsequent miscarriages of justice and aims to expose institutuional failings of the criminal justice system. It explains how followng the murder police issued two photofits of white men, yet 10 months later arrested five black men and subsequently charge three of them with murder. The investigations by a support campaign led by legal authority Satish Sekar forced the authorities to re-open the enquiry which led to the release of the convicted Cardiff 3. The text brings to light new evidence showing the blood groups of the two earlier suspects - both white and both eliminated by DNA profiling - were almost identical to that of the rare grouping found in the dead woman's flat.

Harry Bingham’s Talking to the Dead introduced readers to one of the most compelling new heroines in crime fiction, Detective Constable Fiona Griffiths, earning comparisons to Stieg Larsson’s Lisbeth Salander. Now D.C. Griffiths returns to investigate a series of gruesome murders—and their connection to her own shadowy past. D.C. Fiona Griffiths is facing the prospect of a dull weekend when the call comes in, something about illegal dumping in a Cardiff suburb. But when she arrives on the scene she finds, in a garage freezer, a severed human leg, complete with a pink suede high-heeled shoe. South Wales police are able to ID the body part as that of a young woman who went missing five years earlier; a young woman who once made a living as an exotic dancer. All at once, Fiona’s job as a detective and her role as a loving daughter collide: Fiona’s father owns a Cardiff strip club and was once deeply involved in the local crime scene. Still in recovery from a devastating psychotic breakdown, Fiona is wary of exploring a path that might end at her father’s door . . . yet her obsessive approach to criminal investigation leaves her no other option. But Fiona’s specialty is not the living, it is the dead. And as she is just starting to get into the murdered girl’s head, a severed hand is found—and this one is male. Soon, police are swamped with an increasing number of body parts found in and around suburban gardens, sheds, and garages. Media attention is intense, and investigators are working from a list of hundreds of persons of interest. When the department identifies the second victim, Fiona struggles to connect him with the dead stripper. What do the victims have in common? And why this macabre method of disposing the corpses? The answers may be more than Fiona can handle. Because in order to solve the riddle of these hideous murders, D.C. Fiona Griffiths will have to delve into the mysteries of her past—and hope she comes out intact . . . and alive. Praise for Love Story, with Murders “A most intriguing, if peculiar, detective . . . Although his volatile protagonist certainly dominates the first-person narrative, [Harry] Bingham doesn’t stint on plot (very complicated), procedures (very detailed) or action (very brutal). . . . Satisfying.”—Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review “Love Story, with Murders is a dark delight, and I look forward to Fiona’s future struggles with criminals, her demons and the mysteries of her past.”—The Washington Post “Bingham’s superb second police procedural featuring Det. Constable Fiona Griffiths delivers an even more intense plot and richer character study than his first. . . . Fiona’s past mental problems and her unconventional personality make her a distinctive lead.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review) “Some of the most memorably staccato narration in the genre . . . [Bingham’s] remote, unquenchable heroine makes her stand apart from every one of her procedural brothers and sisters.”—Kirkus Reviews “Compelling . . . [Love Story, with Murders] amply proves the freshness and flair that [Bingham] has brought to the police procedural. . . . Surprisingly delicate, it weaves a sinuous, seductive spell and confirms we have a new crime talent to treasure.”—Daily Mail (UK) “Love Story, with Murders boasts what must be the most startling protagonist in modern crime fiction.”—The Sunday Times (London) From the Hardcover edition.
