James McCready has served eight years of a life sentence for the murder of his partner, Gary Meadows. McCready has always claimed that the stabbing was a tragic accident and that the police inquiry, led by Det. Supt. Michael Walker, was prejudiced. Armed with new evidence, McCready's solicitor, Ben Duffield, and gay barrister and MP, Robert Rylands, join forces to campaign for an appeal.
