Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Inside the Case: "The Black Cab Rapist" - Harriet Wistrich
Q: What impact did the outcomes have on future policing and victim support?
Outcomes established police liability for egregious systemic failings, spurred changes to how investigations are conducted, enhanced transparency for parole decisions, and inspired ongoing reforms through groups like the Centre for Women's Justice.
Inside the Case: "The Black Cab Rapist" - Harriet Wistrich
Q: What prompted you to get involved in these cases against the police and the Parole Board?
Wistrich explains she was drawn in by a feminist campaign and a commitment to holding state actors accountable for failures that left victims unprotected, which led to long campaigns, precedent changes, and high-profile court actions.
Inside the Case: "The Wimbledon Common Murder" - William Clegg KC
Q: Do you think things are just as bad now or have things improved?
I don't think they've improved a great deal, looking at cases like Jill Dando and Joanna Yates, where the wrong people were arrested without sufficient evidence.
Inside the Case: "The Wimbledon Common Murder" - William Clegg KC
Q: Did you feel a particular pressure and anxiety, thinking, I'm fairly certain he didn't do this, so I've just got to get him off?
I felt pressure given the gravity of the situation, but my job was to advocate for him knowing the weaknesses in the prosecution's case.
Inside the Case: "The Wimbledon Common Murder" - William Clegg KC
Q: What did you make of that? He must have been shocked.
Colin Stagg felt betrayed because he had formed a genuine relationship with the undercover officer.
