Nope, simply another example of money buying a verdict. I'd have thought
that you’d have been against that sort of thing. She'll be found guilty
again on the re-trial and meanwhile us poor taxpayers will be several
hundreds of thousands of pounds worse off.

If you'd actually read the judgement you'd probably (assuming old age
hasn't yet fully calcified your thinking muscle) come to the same
conclusion.
