[2013] EWCA Crim 163
A conviction for murder was not unsafe despite the production of fresh evidence indicating that at the time of the killing the defendant had been suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of previous sexual and physical abuse. The evidence provided no reason to doubt the jury's rejection of his defence of diminished responsibility.
