Miscarriage of Justice statement

A wrongful conviction is not an accident. It is a demand for accountability.

This short 2011 statement gives the moral frame for Kevan's fight: justice has not merely gone wrong in the abstract. A life has been taken into prison, and the case demands close public scrutiny.

The term miscarriage of justice carries with it the inference of accident but also of death. There is a pressing need to investigate in detail how it has come about that there has been a form of death in this case - the death of justice - and who shall be found responsible.

The force of the statement

Look closelyKevan's case deserves full public examination, not silence or drift.
Name the harmA wrongful conviction is a human loss, not a paperwork error.
AccountabilityThe campaign calls for answers from the systems that failed him.

Follow the statement into the record
