Unlawful Killings by Wendy Joseph KC
Unlawful Killings peels apart five dramatic murder and manslaughter cases and removes this distinction between ‘them’ and ‘us’. There are many and subtle ways in which we can all be touched by these killings; any one of us could end up in the witness-box or even in the dock. But most people have only the sketchiest idea of what happens inside a Crown Court. By revealing the inner workings of the Old Bailey and UK law, the author makes clear that every member of society has a vested interest in what happens in the court room. By describing with breath-taking skill and deep compassion how the cases unfold, they illustrate exactly what it’s like to be a murder trial judge and a witness to human good and bad. Sometimes very bad.
Right now, the courts are straining under the weight of the many heinous crimes being committed, but it’s not merely the system that is flawed. The fracture lines that run through our society are becoming harder and harder to ignore and, from their unique perspective, the author warns that we do so at our peril.
