The Trudi Warner #contempt case brings to mind a significant so-called 'perverse' verdict from 1991.

Michael #Randle and Patrick #Pottle were charged with helping a spy escape from prison in 1963.

The judge told the jury the defendants had no defence. The jury knew they were guilty - the pair admitted it in a book - and yet the jury unanimously found them not guilty.
