That is exactly why documentaries and publicity is so important in this case. This case is more in the public eye than ever since the conviction. The public are so close to finding out about the relatives misleading the jury and tampering with evidence, the news of the world deal and what and how much information has been withheld from the jury and the defence
Julie Mugford the main prosecution witness was guilty of numerous crimes, 13 separate cheque frauds, robbery, and drug dealing and also making a deal with a national newspaper before trial that if she could convince a jury her ex boyfriend was guilty of five murders she would receive £25,000

Is this done to make sure that everyone involved will all be pushing up the daisies ?

   How usual/unusual is this? Does anyone know? Are there many cases where photographs and other evidence is under pii for so long?

What does the Defence allege is being withheld specifically?

I don't know Steve. But if it something that the defence do not already have, then it's probably not good.

It's to do with the Home Office who'll no longer entertain re-opening this case.

Well one thing is for sure, it's not going to be anything that specifically aids the prosecution.
