BBC News - Hillsborough: The Fight for Justice

Judith Moritz reports on a 23-year battle for truth about the UK's worst sporting disaster

Following the launch of a new criminal investigation, Judith Moritz reports on the battle for the truth about Hillsborough, in which 96 people were killed.

This has been a landmark week for the families of the victims of the Hillsborough disaster. The High Court quashed the inquest verdicts of accidental death for the 96 Liverpool fans who were crushed in 1989. A fresh inquest has been ordered, and a new criminal investigation has also been launched. At such a crucial time for campaigners, Judith Moritz looks at their continuing fight for justice.
