The campaign for justice for Sam Hallam has received a boost, as the Supreme Court has granted his appeal of a decision that denied him compensation for his seven years in prison.
Hackney’s Sam Hallam was jailed in 2005 aged 17 for life with a minimum term of 12 years in connection with the murder of Essayas Kassahun in 2004. In May 2012, appeal judges decided the conviction was unsafe.
Good luck to Sam!
