Deliberately. By police who suppressed & altered evidence. Absolutely appalling that this was firstly, able to happen & secondly remain in place for so very long; the man's mother sold the family home to try to finance their legal costs. 

I hope this poor man is given massive compensation, & those police responsible will pay the penalty for their crime if they're still alive.

"On Wednesday, Hall, now 60, his family, and supporters, including investigators Tim McKinnel and Katya Paquin, will be at the Supreme Court, hoping to hear that his conviction has finally been quashed, after numerous previous appeals and 35 years trying to prove his innocence.

In a remarkable sign that it now accepts Hall didnÔÇÖt commit the murder, Crown Law has admitted HallÔÇÖs claim that his case was a trial gone wrong, ÔÇ£is lamentably correctÔÇØ.


ÔÇ£Succinctly put, the Crown accepts that justice substantially miscarried in Mr HallÔÇÖs case ... the Crown acknowledges the unacceptable truth that an unanswerable cause of miscarriage here, and of unfair trial, was deliberate failure by those responsible for the prosecution to disclose material that would have plainly been important in Mr HallÔÇÖs defence,ÔÇØ Crown Law stated in its submissions to the Supreme Court, filed last week.

Meanwhile many third world countries still havent got readily available access to the vaccine.
But hey, they all have natural immunity now and africa gave us the more mild Omicron strain

Surprising - no,  not even slightly.

"Since the introduction of a new top personal tax rate, Inland Revenue has recorded a boom in the number of lower-tax entities created by high earners, which could be used to reduce tax bills.

The department (IR) warns efforts to dodge the new 39% tax by diverting income through companies (where they can be taxed at a maximum of 28%) and trusts (which can be taxed at a maximum of 33%) is likely to contribute to a $2.89 billion fall in revenues from high earners in the 2022 tax year.

The department is likely to re-open consultation on law changes to cut off methods of using companies to dodge tax later this year, after submissions raised issues during an initial consultation that closed in late-April, and moves are intended to be taken to crack down on trusts next year.

IR spokesperson Tony Morris says staff are not waiting on these changes, and if behaviour indicates someone has tried to avoid the top personal tax rate by diverting income to lower-tax entities they would be contacted and face substantial financial penalties."

These mass shootings in the US are becoming heavily politicized...

If this isn't a blatant case of greed, masquerading as Christianity, then it's an excellent imitation. I think the time has come to de register 'religions' like this which are really a business in all but name.
I wonder if this is making the McBishop nervous....

I do have to wonder though - what if she meets someone else she wants to marry? Will she have to divorce herself first....?

Apparently so - it has happened!

The idea of "marrying" oneself first made news nearly 20 years ago when Carrie Bradshaw, a character in the hugely popular American series Sex and the City, raised it. But the show was a comedy drama.


And in one highly unusual case, a 33-year-old Brazilian model "divorced" herself three months after her "wedding".
But since such stories are as yet unheard of in India, news of Ms Bindu's impending nuptials have become a talking point."

I have been receiving advertising emails from this company and unsubscribed at least twice now, but they keep coming. It appears I have a profile with their company. I have no idea how that would have happened as I would not have done that and I am quite upset about it. I cannot find any way to contact them. Maybe I will have to click on 'forgotten password', go into my profile and delete it that way, but I would also like to know who or how it was set up in the first place.  Has anyone else experienced this.

Diggers is where its at nowdays!

Was reading this article this morning...

I noticed this behaviour several years ago so thought it might be worth mentioning here...

When buying stuff online from overseas, I always find it is best to allow the purchase to occur in the local currency ie GBP USD etc
The currency conversion websites do at the time of purchase is always at a higher rate and loaded with fees.


As an example, my last online purchase was for a subscription to a remote desktop support app...

The purchase cost was Ôé¼98.00 euro
Using the currency conversion offered by paypal as payment processor, the total charged would have been $176.00 NZD.
By electing to pay in euro, and allowing the conversion to happen on the credit card (ANZ) the overall cost was $168.00 NZD

Paypal seem to have a conversion fee of around 3.5% plus a decidedly obscure fixed fee...
ANZ credit card conversion fee is 1.3%
