I must be missing something here, the evidence looks shocking, surely this is fairly clear cut..... If Bell looses this, there is surely something rotten in the state of Denmark....

Thanks.

I gave a bit o money because this one is pretty important - but surely the Sonia Appleby case is going to hugely inform the outcome too?
