Rape and abuse survivors clash with convicted mens’ rights group outside Scottish Parliament

[IwantToRetire]

Members of Justice for Innocent Men Scotland (JIMS) were met with a counter protest as they campaigned against “unfair trials” at the Scottish Parliament on Tuesday.

Members of Justice for Innocent Men Scotland (JIMS), who have been slammed for targeting women speaking out on abuse, planned a “silent protest” at Holyrood on Tuesday, campaigning against "unfair trials" in Scotland.

But the 100-strong group turned out with a piper and megaphone to be met with chants of “shame on you” from a group representing victims of abuse, led by rape survivor Ellie Wilson.

I'm puzzled about that too - if there are all these unfair trials, if 'an innocent man was convicted because key evidence was not allowed to be heard by the jury'/ 'they have not been allowed to admit evidence which is central to the case.', have they been appealed?

There are legal definitions of 'admissible/non-admissible evidence' so I'm guessing there were strenuous discussion between judge/prosecution/defence about the nature of the 'key evidence' in question, and it was decided and agreed that it did not meet the criteria for being admissible.

Maybe they got it wrong in all of these rape cases, but isn't that what appeals are for?
