It has also carried editorial and correspondence engaging with conviction safety, including an April 2025 collective letter from senior criminal silks and legal academics urging the CCRC to prioritise its review.
What remains uncertain
The Times is paywalled and this site holds no verified public deep link to the April 2025 letter, so it is catalogued against the publisher rather than an article URL. Readers wanting the text will need a subscription.
