Appeal Court clears Andrew Malkinson of rape after two ...
Watch the latest from ITV News - Andrew Malkinson, who served 17 years in prison for a rape he did not commit, has been cleared by the Court of Appeal.
www.itv.comHere are the latest widely reported updates on Andrew Malkinson:
- In June 2025, Malkinson said he hasn’t finished fighting for reform and intends to push for changes in the justice system, including the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) and related compensation processes. This came after his wrongful conviction was overturned in 2023 and his ongoing advocacy work.[1][3]
- He has publicly criticized the compensation system for miscarriages of justice, noting that payout decisions have been slow and that the state must do more to support those exonerated after long incarcerations.[5][1]
Notes on context:
- Malkinson spent 17 years in prison before his conviction for a 2003 Bolton-area rape was quashed in 2023, and his case has remained a focal point in discussions about wrongful convictions and reform.[3][5]
- Reporting through late 2024 and 2025 indicates ongoing coverage of his compensation status, with BBC reporting he was still awaiting compensation as of late 2024/early 2025, and advocates continuing to push for timely relief.[2][5]
