In the news today it has emerged that he is not getting any compensation for his 6 years in prison which appears to be a case of false imprisonment. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-10922487

Quoting the article on the beeb website "The Ministry of Justice said it would not comment on individual cases but that damages for wrongful imprisonment were paid only when a person was shown to be "clearly innocent."

I thought that you were innocent until proven guilty in this country? If he is guilty then he should be inside, if he is innocent then give him the money!

I am not sure whether the man is guilty or not, it certainly is not my place or the police or anyone other than the courts to decide that.

So in my view either he is guilt or not guilt, to have something in between black and white is totally wrong when you are talking about either someone having 6 years of their life taken away for no reason, or a girls life be taken all together. I have seen how sometime the police get it wrong in this country and also how the press also behave so this is why I am not formulating any judgement on the man.

I think the situation is wrong.
