Stolen Years: Before and After Guildford - Hardcover

Paul Hill is one of the real Guildford Four. Since his release, in 1989, real life has taken a turn that no screenwriter could have dreamed up. In the best Hollywood rags-to-riches tradition, he's become a star and married a Kennedy... The Guildford Four and the Maguire Seven were the collective names of two groups of innocent people whose convictions in English courts in 1975 and 1976 for the Guildford pub bombings of 5 October 1974 were eventually quashed after long campaigns for justice. The Guildford Four were convicted of bombings carried out by the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA), and the Maguire Seven were convicted of handling explosives found during the investigation into the bombings. Both groups' convictions were eventually declared "incorrect and unsatisfactory" and reversed in 1989 and 1991 respectively after they had served 15-16 years in prison. Not one policeman has been yet convicted of the torture, corruption and crimes against the Guildford Four and Maguire Seven.
