Chair of miscarriages of justice review body quits
Briefly

In her resignation interview, Helen Pitcher expressed frustration, stating she had been made a scapegoat for the CCRC's shortcomings, particularly regarding the Andy Malkinson case.
Mr. Malkinson responded sharply, characterizing Pitcher's remarks as 'shameless,' reinforcing his position as a true scapegoat who spent 17 years wrongfully imprisoned.
The independent report into the CCRC's handling of Malkinson's case revealed severe deficiencies, indicating that much of the necessary investigative work was ignored during his appeals.
Justice Secretary Shabana Mahmood's conclusion that Pitcher was unfit to lead the CCRC was based on a thorough review of the agency's failures to address Malkinson's claims.
