[Mon Ami Mate]

Just announced on the radio - Barry George has been found not guilty of murdering Jill Dando in his retrial.

Interesting, very interesting. A self admitted stalking with traces of cordite (or whatever) in his pocket matching that found her body...

Can anyone say 'jails are too full'?

[woof]

just heard that as well !

I was driving down Munster Road when she was shot - unfortunately i didn't see anything unusual and could give any information

It never seemed right that case - bodged evidence from the CPS.

So back to the eastern mafia theory

But there was actually cross contamination and the particle the found was microscopic

Forensic evidence about a tiny speck of gun residue in Barry George's coat helped secure his original conviction but was not permitted in the retrial.

..but some very iffy forensic work is alleged to have contaminated his jacket....

Sorry but without proper evidence I would rather see a guilty man walk than an innocent man imprisoned.

Didnt know that, I'm sure we all have a little bit of the gun that killed jill in our pockets.

Case of the investigators finding a suspect then looking for evidence that linked him to it imho.

Hmmm, personally I'd be double checking the ex-boyfriends.

Am I the only person who thought Barry George was the bloke who did the Cillit Bang commercials?

"Hi I'm Barry George and I'm here with new Celebrity Bang, just one quick squeeze on the back of the head and the celebrity dirt is gone!

Limescale, rust ground in dirt....look what it does to Jill Dando!"

How much compensation will the fruitcake get out of our pockets then?

[Tony*T3]

Cant beleive that any jury beleived a man of his obviosuly sub normal inteligence could habe pulled off such a crime.

The 'gun powder particle' was never compelling evidence. If he had fire the shot there would have been a coating of this powder all over his hands and clothes, so how come they only ever found one (alleged) particle of gunpowder? It raises more questions than answers to anyone with half a brain.

As I understand it there was never a shred of real evidence that actually linked this sad little loser to Dando's killing. Just a wierdo that should probably have spent his life in care (if we had a decent care system).

How much would you want for 8 years in jail for a crime you didn't commit.
