"Mr. Speaker, it is the uncomfortable and inescapable fact that in England innocent people are charged with or convicted of criminal offences more often than hitherto we would have believed possible. This emerges from the spate of mistaken identity cases which have come to light within the past year.".....
"Albert Edward Chapman of Bradford was charged with using a car knowing it to have been stolen and assaulting the police. He was positively identified by a police officer and a lay driver, neither of whom had any doubt about identification. He was committed to Bradford Sessions and duly convicted by a jury in February of this year and sentenced to nine months' imprisonment."
