Post Office Scandal

Post Office Conviction against subpostmaster Lisa Brennan was described by a judge on appeal as an 'Affront to Justice' after she had the 27 counts of theft totalling approximately £3,500 quashed. Post Office Investigator Stephen Bradshaw gives evidence to the Post Office Inquiry about the case and describes his involvement. Horizon evidence was described as essential in getting an conviction and it is highlighted that there was no corroborating evidence nor any evidence of appropriation by the accused subpostmaster. #PostOfficeInquiry #PostOfficeScandal #PostOffice #PostOfficeInvestigator #PostOfficeInvestigation #StephenBradshaw #LisaBrennan

Post Office Investigator Stephen Bradshaw testifies to the Post Office Inquiry and is shown evidence of an arguably aggressive interview style undertaken by himself and another Post Office Investigator who appear to be badgering the beleaguered subpostmaster during her interview under caution in relation to money alleged stolen from her Post Office relating to overstated pension vouchers found during an audit by the Department for Work and Pensions. Lisa Brennan denies the allegations but Stephen Bradshaw tells her they know she's done it, they just want to know why... #PostOfficeInquiry #PostOfficeScandal #PostOffice #PostOfficeInvestigator #PostOfficeInvestigation #StephenBradshaw #LisaBrennan

We've seen through the drama Mr Bates vs The Post Office, countless #subpostmasters reports, evidence to the Post Office Inquiry and the testimony of a subpostmaster on this channel that the 'doubling' of #Horizon shortfalls was a major issue encountered by subpostmasters for decades. What we didn't know is #Fujitsu Horizon shortfalls were happening AND reported as early as June 1999! This was essentially from the start of Horizon being rolled out to post offices. Yet, evidence such as this was used to convict subpostmasters of theft and false accounting UNTIL 2017! We provide an overview of the evidence, the process that should have been followed and a plain English explanation of what the evidence shows. #PostOfficeScandal #HorizonShortfalls #mrbatesvsthepostoffice
