Alan Hall's brother Geoff on his wrongful conviction
Alan Russell Hall was labelled a murderer for 36 years, 19 of which he spent behind bars. Yesterday the Supreme Court quashed his conviction for the crime he didn't commit. Hall was convicted of murdering Arthur Easton in his Papakura family home in 1985 when he was just 23 years old Alan Hall always maintained his innocence, and after four previous appeals were turned down, a fifth saw the Crown accepting that key evidence about the identity of the true attacker was "materially" altered, leading to a miscarriage of justice. Nathan Rarere spoke to Alan's brother, Geoff, who's been tirelessly campaigning to clear his brother's name for all these years. He asked him to try to sum up how he was feeling.
