Hypothetical question
If Jeremy did somehow prove he didn't do it. What would happen?
The police and the extended family would be in deep sh*t
Would be such a scandal
In deep sh*t for what?
The only way a cop or family member would be in trouble would be if the reason he were proven innocent related to wrongdoing by a cop or the family member in question.
No one was in trouble for the Cardiff convictions, police and the jury believed a confession/testimony implicating co-criminals but later subsequent evidence about the mental stability of the witness made an Appeals court doubt it. There wasn't found to be any wrongdoing by police so no one got in trouble over it.
