British Jury Faults Police Over 1989 Hillsborough Soccer Stadium Deaths

[Commander Wallace]

Quote : The verdict, which capped the longest case heard by a jury in British legal history, comes more than two years after the inquest began, on April 1, 2014, and after a decades-long push by relatives, fans and the Liverpool club for a full accounting.

When the 2012 report was published, Prime Minister David Cameron of Britain issued a government apology to the families of the victims, saying that they had suffered a double injustice: “The injustice of the appalling events, the failure of the state to protect their loved ones and the indefensible wait to get to the truth,” and “the injustice of the denigration of the deceased — that they were somehow at fault for their own deaths.”
