Summary of Case:

"Keiran Bryant was wrongly convicted in December 2011 of burglarizing a London electrical store during a riot in the summer of 2011. Bryant was arrested at the store but he claimed he arrived there after it was burglarized and to dissuade two youngsters from taking part in the looting. The jury convicted Bryant after see a CCTV video of the purported rioting of the electrical store -- although the DVD didn't show Bryant and when arrested he didn't have any looted goods on him. After his conviction he discoved that the CCTV didn't show the looting that Bryant had allegedly participated in. On April 2, 2011 the UK's Court of Appeals quashed Bryant's conviction on the basis of the new evidence that made his conviction unsafe, and the Court did not order a retrial. Bryant was wrongly imprisoned for three months."
