Wild Justice: Lynn Siddons Story

Product Information

His first brief – a driving case – was from a firm of solicitors in Sussex, and they continued to brief him for many years until, in 1998, he was instructed by them in the case of Siôn Jenkins, convicted of the murder of his foster daughter Billie-Jo. In a subsequent unsuccessful appeal, Scrivener argued that the scientific evidence against Jenkins was open to serious challenge. He did not continue on the case after that, but Jenkins was subsequently acquitted on a second appeal, and in February 2006, after a retrial, was officially declared not guilty. In 2005, Scrivener was invited to lead the defence team of Saddam Hussein, but he did not do so.

All this experience of solving murder cases might make one think that Scrivener is a supporter of the government's plans to scrap the double-jeopardy rule. This states that if someone is acquitted of a crime, they will face a second trial if compelling new evidence of their guilt subsequently comes to light, such as DNA or fingerprint tests or new witnesses. But Scrivener is very much against the reform. "You'll find the majority of lawyers are very much opposed to it," says Scrivener. "And I'm certainly one of them." Why? "I think the CPS would exploit it. The prosecution would be able to use the first trial as a dummy run. They could bring cases to trial when they really weren't ready, on the basis that it would only be the first outing. That really isn't good enough.
