Basically I was found guilty yesterday of a crime I did not commit. If I can prove the prosecution witness swore an oath on the bible and lied on two occasion, what can be done, will they be charged with perjury and what happens to the court case? I am due to be sentenced in 1 months time for this crime

You may be better talking this through with your barrister rather than thinking aloud on here so much. You have had the view of barrister on here

also I have witnesses and doctors proof that I shout and swear punch and kick in my sleep. All this and there word is more believable. Not trying to say I have been shouting anything racial in my sleep but I do swear etc

the prosecution told the jury that I had been harassing them since 2011 but there is no proof. I only started getting complaints via the council since summer 2013?

These complaints consisted of hovering during the day, laughing talking and music till 5am. Strange nobody else heard these anything including my neighbor living directly above me. So can the jury be told facts without any evidence whatso ever. These events where made up

Put it this way if u was on a jury and was told I had been harassing them since 2011, what would you think? they don't have any proof so they could have said I defecated on there doorstep??

obviously I didn't but they can tell the jury I did?

Sorry if I didn't sound sympathetic, jason- it must be extremely frustrating to feel that lying o has led to a miscarriage of justice
