Not just a miscarriage...

Very troubling news about the Lockerbie trial, where it appears that the Libyan convicted back in 2001 will almost certainly be cleared on appeal. The worrying aspect is the suspicion that this wasn't just a matter of the court getting it wrong, but rather that the evidence was deliberately tampered with when it became clear that things were starting to point to countries who, at the time, we did not wish to offend, and Libya was chosen as the fall-guy. This could turn into something really bad.
