I’m listening to a brilliant pod cast at the moment called Shreds. Well worth a listen if you like pod casts.
All about the case.

Horrific murder of a vulnerable young woman
Those lads were totally fitted up , I remember a slogan .....free the boys !.......sprayed on a wall in bute town long before they were freed , the community knew those lads were known to the police but not murderers
They would have hung if capital punishment was law
As it is I think 3 of those charged and put on trial have died and the lives of the surviving two are forever blighted
The corrupt police officers were due to be put on trail.However the evidence was lost.Conveniently.
On full pensions as well
How can they live with themselves
Or indeed the jury who convicted innocent men on such flimsy evidence
Tom mangolds documentary on the cardiff three is superb
And found the very next day - shocking!! If it was a film you’d call it far fetched. One of the accused was working on a ship in Barry dock with about 50 witnesses but still got convicted of a murder in Cardiff
Yousef abdulahi
Remember him explaining all that to tom mangold on that documentary , it was unbelievable that any of them were convicted
Would make a nice change to see something like this in Netflix or the like (if it already isn't) as we seem to be bombarded with American stuff that isn't always as interesting
They just wanted them put away didn’t they, biggest fit up ever of a few docks lads
Didn’t they catch the guy who really did it by accident? Was it his brother or cousin who did something innocuous and had dna swab taken, it was almost identical to the person who did it, eventually led to the nutter?
I think it was his nephew who was 14 when caught for and offence and had his DNA taken bt he wasn't alive at the time of the murder, so they looked at his family and caught the true killer.
From what I could see online he's still inside having had parole refused twice.

I always find it surreal seeing the flat above the vape shop (old ladbrokes) thinking about what happened back then that evening and what that poor girl went through.
It’s mad what the place looked like back then and now places like the WMC is a stones throw away.
