True...
Obviously it's in their best interests to get out of there as soon as they can. I think I'm just a little dumbstruck that their lawyers have managed to put together an appeal case, but, having said that, I only know the story from the angle given in the news reports - even if the BBC is trying to be impartial, the convicted still come across looking as guilty as a paedophile caught sitting in the wheelie bin outside a primary school.

EDIT: I agree with No3L as well - our legal system might not be perfect, but it's the best thing we've got, and is a damn site more reliable than any angry vigilante mob. I know I should certainly take a deep breath and calm down before I reach any judgement on things like this.
