Description

Fit Up is the alarming true story, from a woman's perspective, of the tragic consequences of her husband's wrongful arrest for downloading child porn on the Internet. The case caused the couple nearly ten years of grief, to the point where they were driven nearly to suicide. They are the only people in the UK who have successfully sued the police in this type of case. The book documents corruption by the police and their legal team and how the couple gradually uncovered what was going on, to be finally awarded significant damages and costs, a figure not including the police's own legal fees. The book recounts in heart wrenching detail how Jeremy in particular reached rock bottom and somehow managed to claw his way back thanks to the devotion of his wife Faith Clifford. It reveals how they eventually gained an unprecedented victory in a legal battle against the police. This is a story that could happen to any of us.
