R -v- H

We defended a twelve year old boy who was charged with the murder of his six month old baby brother by repeated stabbing. The case attracted national and international publicity. The case was effectively the first of its kind since the Judgment given in the case of T and V -v- United Kingdom (the Bulger case). Human rights and mental health issues of the utmost difficulty were involved. We were commended for our case preparation by the trial Judge, the distinguished adolescent psychiatrist Dr Susan Bailey and by our QC, Baroness Helena Kennedy.
