Benjamin Myers KC delivers defence opening

At Manchester Crown Court, Benjamin Myers KC opens the defence case. The opening sets out, in sequence, the clinical-context frame (a unit under strain), the medical-evidence frame (non-specific findings read as specific), the statistical frame (selection bias in the shift chart), the notes frame (self-blame under stress), and the digital-evidence frame (curated subset without denominator). Each of these themes is substantially reinforced by the post-conviction independent expert evidence that has since accumulated.
