Child sex abuser claimed 'miscarriage of justice', Supreme Court appeal dismissed


He went to the Court of Appeal, unsuccessfully appealing his conviction, and then to the Supreme Court. Now the Supreme Court has dismissed Nancarrow's appeal, too. He told the Supreme Court the trial judge failed to provide a "relevance and repetition warning" about previous consistent statements from complainants. Nancarrow also claimed the trial judge failed to give the jury adequate directions and said "prosecutorial misconduct" caused a miscarriage of justice. But in a new judgment, the Supreme Court said Nancarrow was rehashing the same claims he presented at the Court of Appeal.
