Working and writing about all things related to crime and justice in Scotland. I am especially interested in deaths in custody and wrongful convictions.

Really interesting article on an under researched area. So little is understood about the realities of living with a wrongful conviction post release and the long shadow it casts over their lives.

My 10 year old son is a big fan of the Alex Rider book series and we often end up talking about espionage, the powers of the state, conflict and control. 📚
