You, the jury, have heard the evidence and arguments and are now being asked to deliberate and decide Lord Lucan’s fate.
In his closing speech, defence barrister Edward Henry KC urges you to judge the case based on ‘the evidence, and the evidence alone’, saying Lord Lucan had been the victim of a ‘tsunami of prejudice’.
‘This is perhaps the most notorious murder allegation of modern times,’ he adds, as he concedes that the ‘odds are stacked’ against his client.
But questioning whether Lucan could ever get a fair trial, he states the prosecution is ‘drenched in prejudice’.
‘John Bingham, Lord Lucan, has been convicted countless times before he even entered this courtroom. He has been vilified .. his whole life defamed in the Press, the Media, and on the Internet - for decade upon decade before this trial.
Mr Henry also describes the forensic evidence at the murder scene as a ‘fiasco’ because of contamination.
His fate is in your hands.
‘The Trial of Lord Lucan’ is an innovative week-long podcast event where you the listener, are the jury.
