Miscarriages of Justice

[Clear]

People start family history research for all sorts of reasons, one of those reasons is because they suspect something is wrong or something bad happened.  This is a fact I'm not in need of your agreement.

Newspapers are the best source for this kind of thing, in my experience.  I have some criminals [nothing too spectacular or violent] and some victims; no known 'miscarriages of justice.

I suspect that this just another of AngelJunctions posts thrown up to try and create controversy amongst rootschat members.

Look at his/her other posts - most quite contentious.  I suggest we stop falling for them.

If you're happy to share, which ancestor of yours is it that you feel has been wronged by historians/researchers? I'm curious.

As already mentioned, no one is disagreeing with you AJ.

Well why bother asking people for their input on a topic? Especially ones which you know people won’t agree with you.

Me neither - and it's an opinion shared by many other members as well. 

Given that AngelJunction only joined RC in May - she has posted quite a few controversial topics - but got very little support or agreement for them. 

See my reply 33 on another of her posts for full list

The Old Bailey online site has court cases but there is no database of established miscarriages of justice and none of suspected miscarriages either. No wonder the establishment is laughing at us.

My London family was the victim of several "frames", anybody else discovered something in their family ?

It seems your experience is a 'secret' but you want others to tell of their discoveries

Presumably someone connected in some way to the Ripper case.
