[2004] EWCA Crim 2047

Fresh scientific evidence about the possible cause of blood splatters on the defendant's clothing might reasonably have affected the decision of the jury to convict the defendant of murdering his foster daughter and therefore his conviction would be quashed and a retrial ordered.
