Calling on the Scottish Parliament to urge the Scottish Government to ensure that the new specialist deaths unit being created by the Crown Office and Procurator Fiscal Service is able to investigate retrospective and current cases of suspicious deaths, including after a Fatal Accident Inquiry has taken place, where the bereaved can reasonably demonstrate that the circumstances of the death were suspicious and that there is a robust and open mechanism, involving the families, for an independent review of such suspicious deaths.

Christmas time is the most difficult for people in prison. It is even more difficult when you have evidence of innocence like these people below.

We can help brighten a prisoners day by sending a card to them to let them know that they are not forgotten by people on the outside world.

Below is a small list of prisoners whom I am sure would appreciate a bit of Christmas Cheer. If you could send one card to any of these prisoners it would be so very much appreciated. It would also make their day to get a card outside of Scotland.


Thank you

Today was the 10th Anniversary Conference in Glasgow for the Scottish Criminal Case Review Commission.

William Beck who has been fighting for 28 years for justice, had to pay £102 to go to this conference just so that he can ask questions of the Justice Minister and others at this conference. Wullie will have his own report on how things went for him from inside the conference.

See: www.justiceforwulliebeck.webs.com

Ed Milne was also inside at the event to ask his own questions, as well as John and Cathy from MOJO, whom we met with outside the venue.

Outside the venue, me, Frank, (my husband) Louise (Wullie's wife) His two daughters and one of their boyfriends, plus Louise's brother stood outside with placards and leaflets to hand out to the public.

We were a small gathering but a very effective one. It has given us a much needed boost to continue to go out to the public with Wullie's case and other cases too. We will be doing leaflet drops again soon.

We met Chris Shead and other lawyers and officials.

We saw so many people we recognised. Many of them took the leaflets Wullie had made, which was brilliant.

Cars hooted their horns to show support.

Most of all we met the public, who I have to say where extremely supportive. We had no problem at all of getting rid of the leaflets. In fact people were coming up to us and asking for them. When we ran out of leaflets, we gave people Wullie's website to look at.

Several people actually came back to tell us they had already looked at the site and were appalled at what had happened in Wullie's case.

We did take pictures and they will be added to the site very soon.

Louise handed Kenny MacAskill a leaflet, and he took it and thanked her. We saw him and many other official looking people reading the leaflets.

Wullie actually had to come out and ask us for some leaflets to hand out inside as people were asking for them.

Members of the public came up to us with their stories of injustice and also to say they knew injustice did happen. People were genuinely interested. Take note documentary and news media, the public are indeed interested in these stories and want to know more.

We spoke to Scottish, English, Irish, Norwegian and Dutch people about miscarriage of justices.

We even saw Frank McGarvey, an old Celtic and St Mirren player, who came round to have a look at the placards.

A member of the Norwegian Criminal Case Review Commission came down and spoke with us and took photo's also

As did some photographer from inside the event.

An editor came along and spoke with us and went to her office, looked at the site, then came back to take photo's of us all. She said she admired the fact we were standing up for what we believed in.

What was particularly nice was the fact that Wullie's own family were all there, and watching his wife and daughters tell people who asked all about their fight for justice, was particularly humbling.


Meeting the public and talking to them about Wullie's case and many other cases too was absolutley brilliant. We had quite a gathering of people at times and they never stopped coming in the 5 hours we stood on our peaceful, but information issuing day.


It really has made me and the others want to do more of the same, not protesting as such, but telling people face to face about what is happening to people. It really was an effective day and so many more people now know about Wullie's case.


We have already had many hits on his site with people looking to see what it is all about.


I hope the next time we do this, that others will become involved. Today was a sort of experiment to see how things went, and we couldnt believe how quick many hundereds of leaflets went. And not once did we find one lying around on the streets.


We met many kind and funny people today and it restored my faith that there are people who do care and who do want to help. They just do not know how to help. W
