Wrongful Conviction Exposed: The Shocking Rape Case That Rocked Britain
The case of Paul Quinn exposes how a victim was failed and an innocent man wrongly jailed for 23 years. This in-depth investigation reveals one of Britain's greatest miscarriages of justice.
One of Britain's most shocking miscarriages of justice began before dawn on a summer day in Salford more than 20 years ago. A young woman had walked the darkened streets alone for about five miles when she was honked at and wolf-whistled, leaving her so frightened that she hid for a while in the undergrowth.
This terrifying encounter was the start of a case that would eventually lead to the wrongful conviction of an innocent man, Paul Quinn, 23 years after the attack. The story exposes how the victim was repeatedly failed by the justice system, while an innocent man languished in prison for over two decades.
