Activism
Inside Justice
Free Invitation. Will be of interest to writers of crime fact/fiction or procedural literature. On behalf of Inside Justice, the charity which investigates miscarriages of justice, and myself we are delighted to invite you to a special event at the iconic MANCHESTER ART GALLERY on Friday 1 July.
We hope you can join us for an exclusive evening reception where Tony Award winning actor Tom Conti will welcome you all, introducing Louise Shorter (Founder of Inside Justice), Siobhan Grey QC (Libertas Chambers) and Jason Lartey (Lartey & Co Solicitors) who will discuss their successful overturning of the murder conviction of Patryk Pachecka. Patryk was wrongly convicted and then acquitted at the Central Criminal Court in 2021.
This is a unique opportunity for you, and others from the legal profession, to hear first hand from the key players in the case including Richard Vardon (18 St John Street Chambers) and forensic expert Jo Millington along with pathologist Professor Jack Crane CBE and Dr Claas Buschmann about their experiences in reviewing the Crown’s scientific evidence.
The evening presentations will lead you through the appeal and retrial process, and explain how the forensic and pathology evidence and collaboration with journalists changed the narrative of this wrongful conviction case.
Join us at the Manchester Art Gallery, Mosley St, Manchester. Doors open at 5.15pm. There will be a drinks reception after the presentations until 8pm.
Places are limited but you can secure your place by registering on Eventbrite: Miscarriage of Justice: A Post-mortem Tickets, Fri 1 Jul 2022 at 17:15 | Eventbrite Tickets will be going on general release next week and so please book now to avoid disappointment.
