[2006] EWCA Crim 139

A new theory, raised on appeal against a murder conviction, about the time that fatal injuries might have been inflicted upon a child, had been no more than very late post-trial speculation unsupported by any evidence. The fact that part of the judge's summing up could have been worded better had not rendered the conviction unsafe.
