In this latest episode of Double Jeopardy, Ken Macdonald and Tim Owen are joined by Sarah Vine, a KC at Doughty Street Chambers, to discuss the sensitive and difficult issue of the way in which trials of rape and other serious sexual offences are conducted.

The trio discuss the complexities surrounding trials of sexual offences, particularly focusing on the special measures introduced to support vulnerable witnesses. They explore the implications of these measures, including Section 28 evidence, and the unintended consequences that have arisen, such as lower conviction rates.

The conversation closes with a discussion on the recent sentencing of Huw Edwards, examining the principles applied by the judge, and the public response. Was it right not to send him straight to prison?
