A man who has spent 38 years in prison for the murder of a woman in 1986 has had his conviction quashed at the Court of Appeal.
Peter Sullivan, who was 30 when he was sentenced and is now 68, is believed to be the UK’s longest-serving victim of a miscarriage of justice after three senior judges quashed his conviction for the killing, 17 years after his first attempt to have it overturned.
