Great to catch up with Jeremy in Shrewsbury and give him a copy of Collateral Damage.
Typically, it was a priority for him to make the journey to join a packed event to celebrate the #Shrewsbury24 Appeal Court ruling that the convictions of the building workers were unsafe.

Terry Renshaw, one of the #Shrewsbury24, told the event to mark their victory: "If I get emotional, forgive me. The thing is, we didn't give up. It took 47 years, but we kept going. We took on the police, the government, the judiciary and, yes, the secret service - and we won."
For those who'd like a copy, there's a secure PayPal facility that takes credit cards on my website and two options for eBooks: steve-howell.com/collateral-dam…

The news is brutal. But we knew better than to trust the criminal justice system to get it right.
Appeal judges might get to decide who stays in prison, but they don’t get to decide what the truth is.
And the truth is that the #FreshwaterFive were wrongfully convicted.
