I think her defence lawyer is just extremely incompetent.

I mean, to be fair a lot of the details haven't been made public so we don't actually know.
However there are very specific and narrow grounds for appeals to be granted (which she clearly doesn't meet) - otherwise every Tom, Dick & Harry would be appealing their guilty verdicts within 5 minutes. |

Yes but also you could just get unlucky, I do think a lot of people should have an automatic right to appeal. In cases that a juror had to leave and a lot of verdicts were 10-1 especially. Obviously this is a complex case with a lot of people you don't want to put through a trial again and it'll take forever BUT given the potential for a huge miscarriage of justice I think just ruling out an appeal completely doesn't seem right. If the evidence is strong enough and she is guilty surely she will be found guilty again and that will be the end of it |
