Siobhan Grey QC, Jason Lartey and Richard Vardon worked with Inside Justice, a charity dedicated to investigating miscarriages of justice in successfully overturning the murder conviction of Patryk Pachecka and securing his acquittal for murder at the Central Criminal Court in 2021.
The whole process took more than three years and involved fresh pathological and scientific evidence led by Professor Jack Crane CBE and Dr Claas Buschmann along with forensic scientist and blood pattern expert, Jo Millington.
Join us for an evening in conversation with the key players in the case as they lead you through the appeal and retrial process, and explain how the forensic and pathology evidence and collaboration with journalists changed the narrative of this wrongful conviction case.
