A lack of regulation over the use of expert witnesses in English courts could be leading to miscarriages of justice.

I think that there is a fundamental problem in relation to our appeal system generally, that it just won't face up to the fact that mistakes can be made. "It stubbornly wants to stick to the original flawed conviction."

The CPS's practice of offering no evidence shortly before trial, leaving victims without recourse for appeal, leads to miscarriages of justice and wrongful acquittals.
