Col, your comments on the Downing case implies that he got off on some legal technicality. The legal mechanisms are live for 25 years for a retrial before a case of this kind is declared closed. Who says he is a ‘prime suspect’? Those who tried to frame him for a murder he did not commit? Why would he want to be interviewed again by those who stole his freedom for so many years?
