Hi
TW50, your observation is quite true ..... but one would hope that those overturning any finding do so with integrity and that such changes are based on hard evidence. Sadly, in the case of ZD576, this appears not to be the case. Kudos to you for reaching your decision in what must be a dreadful experience picking though the lead-up to a fatal accident - whatever the cause. Nearest I got to such lofty matters was being on the Board of a lowly CM. Fortunately, the hard evidence of guilt was compelling ... erm, once I'd pointed it's relevance out to the Prosecution who, amazingly, had missed it completely
.... and the subsequent list of "previous" was eye-wateringly long!!!
Cheers,
