Ep3: Presumed innocent but behind bars
Manage episode 379667720 series 3520244
In this episode we explore pre-trial imprisonment, otherwise known as remand. The remand process allows people who have not been found guilty of a crime to be kept in prison, sometimes for months or even years, while awaiting trial. Rob and Penelope are joined by Griff Ferris of Fair Trials, and May Robson, who has researched the use of remand for foreign national women, to discuss why we imprison people before trial and what could be done to decrease the number of people stuck in this limbo.
