    If so how serious do you think the illness should have to be?

    No. Wasn't even thinking about him until you've just mentioned it. At which point I thought 'oh **** that looks a bit like...'. But no it wasn't anything to do with that, was more to do with murderers, rapists and the like who use long term illness as a way of avoiding trial.

    In fact PC's illness isn't long term is it? I thought his trial had only been delayed till he gets better.

    Margaret Moran? I thought she did face trial but SHE didn't actually go to court, they did it in her absence.

    Ernest Saunders avoided a trial because of dementia. He made a full recovery.

    If they can sit in a wheelchair they can stand trial for their evil actions.

    Don't think so. Think his trial has just been delayed till he gets better.

    Moran. Found guilty in her absence but escaped justice due to an illness that miraculously started as soon as she was caught out. Disguting.

    No idea sorry. Last I heard was they hadn't been able to reach a verdict but that was ages ago.

    Being dead is a pretty serious illness.
