John Kay
Edit ProfileCareer
After being called to the bar in 1968 following a brief stint as a schoolteacher, he became a Queen"s Counsel in 1984 and was named to the High Court of Justice of England and Wales in 1992. On the Court of Appeal he upheld the conviction of mass murderer Jeremy Bamber in 2002, perhaps his most celebrated case. He subsequently overturned the murder conviction of Sally Clark, accused of killing her two young sons, and dismissed the posthumous appeal in the name of the executed Ruth Ellis on largely technical grounds.
