[SP] Oliver Campbell wins fight to clear his name

Earlier this year, the Socialist ended an article with the words “Hopefully 2024 will be the year that Oliver gets justice”. Oliver Campbell, who has learning difficulties, was forced into a false confession by the police without a solicitor or appropriate adult present, spent decades in prison and since then campaigning to clear his name. The news that Oliver, convicted of a murder he did not commit in 1991, has had his conviction quashed is an important step towards him realising justice.
