Every time I see a case like this I am horrified the that it takes decades, still there is virtually no compensation for the victims.
To me the evidence of failure on the post-office side looks absolutely damning, including third party audits and physical impossibilities.
" The auditor supposedly witness all transactions for half a day and witness Horizon being short, thereby corroborating her account and also now a potential witness for her"
"Horizon generated a shortfall of £9,000 over Christmas and New Year 2009, a period when her post office branch was closed."
This goes way beyond presumption of robustness, the first time any of this evidence saw the light of day, that should have been the end of it.
Also the court seems to be full of people making statements to the system's robustness who have no business doing so - they appear to present no evidence, know nothing about development process and have no qualifications. Please point out if I am getting this wrong.
