Sam Hallam
Sam Hallam, from Hoxton, London, is one of the youngest victims of a UK miscarriage of justice after an appeal court quashed his murder conviction in 2012.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sam Hallam released after seven years in prison )〕 ==Background== Aged 17, Hallam had been sentenced to serve a minimum of 12 years in prison for the murder of a trainee chef, Essayas Kassahun, during a street brawl in Old Street.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sam Hallam murder conviction finally quashed after seven years in prison )〕 Out of a group of six defendants, he was one of two people convicted and spent seven years in jail before his case was investigated by the Criminal Cases Review Commission and referred back to the Court of Appeal.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Not everyone jailed for a murder actually committed the crime...meet the commission that helps to clear them - Daily Mail Online )〕 Two witnesses claimed to have seen him at the scene, but their evidence was unreliable, with one witness attempting to go back on his statement in court, and another saying, "I just wanted someone to blame on the spot, really." No other evidence, forensic or otherwise, existed to link him to the scene, and Hallam always maintained he was not there, although he had no alibi to prove it.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=How a community's outcry led to campaign for justice for Sam Hallam )〕
