'Guildford Four'

Patrick Armstrong, Gerard Conlon, Paul Hill, and Carole Richardson (who became known as the 'Guildford Four') were found guilty at the Old Bailey in London of causing explosions in London in October 1974. The four were sentenced to life imprisonment. [Following an appeal the four were released on 19 October 1989. The court of appeal decided that the 'confessions' had been fabricated by the police.]
