Law in Action

on BBC Radio 4 FM

The Home Secretary, David Blunkett , has introduced legislation that would allow juries to be told more about a defendant's previous convictions. Civil liberties campaigners say it will lead to defendants being judged on their past rather than on the evidence. Marcel Berlins and his guests debate whether it's time juries were trusted with more information. Producer Innes Bowen
