First anniversary of the Shoo Lee Panel report

One year on from the Panel's London press conference. In the intervening 12 months: a Joint Insulin Report was published (May 2025), an Additional 10 Cases report was published (June 2025), three ex-executives were arrested (30 June 2025), the Bar Council letter was published (April 2025), supplementary expert material was filed with the CCRC (October 2025; the underlying application was received by the CCRC on the evening of 3 February 2025 (publicly announced 4 February)), and Lord Sumption's broadsheet intervention followed (November 2025). The body of post-conviction evidence is now the most substantial in an English murder case in living memory.
