Series 2 Episode 7 - The Appeal of Aidan Johnson

In this episode we go to the Court of Appeal Criminal Division to hear the appeal of Aidan Johnson against his conviction for the murder of Daniel Clarke.

Seeking to overturn the conviction on the grounds of fresh evidence and material non-disclosure, Gabriella Hadden - Aidan’s barrister - is confident in her approach, but sometimes hearings in the Court of Appeal can be less straightforward than you anticipated!

I hope you enjoy this episode and thank you for listening.
