Colin Norris's case to be heard by UK Court of Appeal

I see no-one has started a thread on this case.
Norris (wiki) was convicted on four counts of murder and one of attempted murder in 2008. He is alleged to have used insulin overdoses to murder the four elderly patients at hospitals in Leeds back in 2002.

The case against him was dubious, and the verdict a majority one (the foreman has subsequently altered his view also) delivered after four days of deliberations.

For nearly ten years there have been serious doubts, specifically about the prosecution claim that such a cluster of hypoglycaemic deaths could not occur naturally and was in itself evidence of unnatural causes. This is now considered incorrect (and there were dissenting voices back in '08).
Further investigation into each death has shown logical, non-sinister causes for the deaths.
One further point was the involvement of DCS Chris Gregg in the investigation; he may have been prejudiced by his involvement in the Harold Shipman enquiry.
