Barry George And The Jill Dando Murder - Mike Burke

BARRY GEORGE & THE JILL DANDO MURDER: By Mike Burke: The sudden and horrific murder by shooting of BBC TV presenter Jill Dando attracted shock, horror and revulsion throughout the world. Star of the BBC Crimewatch programme, the Hoiiday Programme, a well known and popular TV newsreader and much in demand for a host of other top notch presentations, Jill was liked and loved by almost everyone. So who was responsible for this bizarre murder? Who planned this shock and deliberate attack on an attractive responsible young woman? Was it a professional killing? Did she upset some international terrorists with her emotional appeals for aid? Why did the police fail miserably in their duty to properly investigate this serious crime? Were there political deals in place to keep the case closed? According to the pompous and bombastic Metropolitan Police at the time, the culprit was Barry George. Unfortunately, he just happened to live in the area and regrettably was one of the usual suspects rounded up at the time. A series of clumsy errors and unchecked anomalies led to his arrest, conviction and detention, however, a rigorous campaign organised initially and led by his uncle Mike Burke, and Barry's family - plus some high profile miscarriage of justice campaigners, all began to re-examine the evidence that led to his conviction. Over a period of years, Mick and Team Barry finally revealed fresh evidence and persuaded the authorities to refer the case back to the court of appeal - where eventually he had his conviction quashed. The police though, not content with making a catalogue of repeated blunders and unexplained omissions with the original investigation, mistakingly decided on an embarrassing and humiliating re-trial which spectacularly failed, finally allowing Barry George to walk out of court a free man. Now trying to rebuild his life after some scandalous treatment by the Metropolitan Police and the British Government, Barry apparently just became another statistic and a clear victim of society - and an uncaring justice system. This story is Mike's Story. It is a true tale of heartache, desperation, and disappointment. It is an emotional roller coaster journey, well documented and explained by Mike from the start of this unexpected saga to the joy and excitement of his freedom and release. It is a very personal, unique and fascinating story, in which family and friendships were challenged and stretched to the limit. it is a story well worth telling and explains the problems faced by a dedicated support group.
