About This Trend

Peter Sullivan is a man who was jailed for the 1986 murder of 21-year-old Diane Sindall in Birkenhead, Merseyside. He has been imprisoned for 38 years, believed to be the longest-serving victim of a miscarriage of justice in British history.

Sullivan is trending because his murder conviction has been quashed after new DNA evidence revealed his DNA was not present at the crime scene, leading to widespread public and legal scrutiny of the case. .
