Broadwater Farm Murder....
http://tinyurl.com/39h2waf
Looks like the savages that murdered PC Blakelock will finally get brought to justice. No thanks to the local estate who have been with holding information all along. Not really a question just thought I'd bring it up.

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.Three men, Winston Silcott, 26, Engin Raghip, 19, and Mark Braithwaite, 18, were jailed for the murder but their conviction was quashed by the Court of Appeal in 1991 after lawyers argued that police had fabricated evidence against them.
The cases against three other juveniles also arrested in connection with the murder were dropped amid concerns about their detainment and treatment by police.
( lawyers argued that police had fabricated evidence against them. )
Have the Police some new fabricated evidence ?

Other than the Geezer's all-seeing eye, how do you know the local estate knew who committed the murder?
If they did know, can you blame them for keeping quiet, when the local police were fitting innocent people up left right and centre. The lack of trust in the police is the reason that PC Blakelock's killer has remained free for so long, not the fault of people on Broadwater Farm.
As usual, corruption, incompetence and cover up go unpunished, while murderers remain free, which is conveniently forgotten Geezer and his ilk.

To those idiots on here making allegations of the Police "fitting people up", where's your evidence, proof or reasons for saying so?
Or are you just the usual morons quick to point the finger with no justification whatsoever? Winston Silcott was eventually cleared, but were there any charges brought against any Police Officers for corruption etc? Duh.....no, I do believe.
The Police had to try to establish who had hacked a human being to death during a mass riot on the stairwell of a block of flats at night, and the fact that the victim was one of their own was neither here nor there. A family had been bereaved and were entitled to an investigation in the pursuit of justice.
For those who still know to this day who was responsible but still haven't ever given the bereaved family the opportunity of closure to this dreadful episode by doing their public duty by helping the investigation are obviously some of those responsible for hacking PC Blakelock's head virtually from his body.
Not only are they shamed and damned for ever, but any person on this forum who truly regards himself as a human being should be condemning the guilty instead of the Police whose thankless task can sometimes result in violent death in the course of their duty. Shame on those gutless detractors on here.

// Winston Silcott was convicted of hacking to death PC Blakelock during the 1985 Broadwater Farm riots in Tottenham, north London. But he and two other men had their murder convictions overturned in 1991 after the Court of Appeal heard the police had fabricated evidence.
Despite more than 1,000 police photos of the riots, none showed Silcott to be present. He won £50,000 damages for false imprisonment and malicious prosecution from the Metropolitan Police four years ago. //

OrcadianOil do you remember this man
Stefan Ivan Kiszko
before his trial the police had the evidence to prove his innocence, but they kept it secret. all them years in jail for nothing
Kiszko's innocence was demonstrated conclusively through medical evidence; he had male hypogonadism, which rendered him infertile, contradicting forensic evidence obtained at the time of the murder. His testes measured 4 to 5 mm in 1975, whereas the average male testicular size was 15 to 20 mm. During his research, Jackson found someone who said correctly that Kiszko was seen tending his father's grave with an aunt. They said they couldn't understand why they hadn't been called to give evidence at the trial. Someone else said he was in a shop around the time of the murder. Then, the three females involved in the original conviction admitted that the evidence they gave which led to Kiszko's arrest and conviction was false, and that they had lied for "a laugh".
Stefan Kiszko died of a massive heart attack, in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, on December 23, 1993, 18 years and two days after he made the confession that helped lead to wrongful conviction for murder. He was 41 years old. Lesley Molseed's sister was one of those who attended his funeral two weeks later on January 5, 1994. His mother, Charlotte Hedwig Kiszko, died four months later, in Rochdale, on May 3, 1994, at the age of 70.
After he was released, Kiszko was told he would receive £500,000 in compensation for the years he spent in prison. He received an interim payment but neither he or his mother got the full amount they were awarded as both died before Kiszko was due to receive it.

The pathologist who examined Molseed's clothes found traces of sperm, whereas the sample taken from Kiszko by the police contained no sperm. There was medical evidence that Kiszko had broken his ankle some months before the murder and, in view of that and his being overweight, he would have found it difficult to scale the slope to the murder spot. The sperm findings were suppressed by the police and never disclosed to the defence team or the jury: neither was the medical evidence of his broken ankle disclosed to the court.

Does anyone remember the Colin Pitchfork murders? Before he was brought to book another man 'confessed' to the killings. Much weight was given to parts of his confession 'that only the killer would know'.
It's true the killer would have known those details, as would the police officers who investigated. They forced an admission out of an innocent man and then added a little detail to help ensure a conviction.
Little changes.
