I heard about this on a Radio 4 documentary last year (albeit I don't think it was the first time it had been aired) and I was transfixed with horror as to what had happened to these poor innocent people. This extremely well written article conveys the 'normality' of Della's life and her and her husband's aspirations to have a good life and this along with their health was taken away from them by the Post Office. I sincerely hope that along with all of their convictions being rightly quashed these poor people are compensated in some way for what they've been through, although of course money does not bring back time, health and respect. What a story and what a woman. I wish her all the very best for the future.
What a powerful and devastating read this lady’s story is, as a small part of an even more horrendous larger picture. Despite all the Post Office and Fujitsu did to her, knowingly and deliberately, she’s still doing good in the world & ploughing through, a testament to her strength. I hope she gets the justice & compensation she & her family deserve, though no amount of money can even bring back time & erase the effect of such corporate wickedness.
This is a deplorable story, and it was so much worse than error on the part of the Post Office. It was mendacious to tell each postmaster that they were they only ones having a problem with the system when they at the Post Office clearly knew otherwise. I am so sorry for the harm, stress and terrible disgrace these innocent people have suffered. As well as massive recompense, which can never right this wrong, I hope the people responsible are brought to account publicly and they make personal apologies. Corporate apologies just don't cut it.
There has to be more to the Post Office going so far to cover up their errors. They need to pay each and everyone of the wrongly convicted people massive damages for what they have done. Thank you Della for sharing your story with us.
How awful to be stripped of your livelihood and reputation, knowing that you are completely innocent of any wrongdoing. I join the rest of the Millers in calling for the Post Office to pay compensation which takes into account the lost years of work, the damage to health due to the stress of it all, and the loss of standing in their communities.
I had already heard about these cases through the news - but I think the Post Office should be doing something to publicise far and wide the injustice done to these people so that everyone in their communities are aware of it.
I had seen this in the news but Della's story really brings it home. If the affected subpostmasters don't receive proper compensation for loss of livelihood, pensions and health it will be an even bigger scandal.

This is a heartbreaking story , I hope Della and Michael can recover financially as well as personally.

A dreadful miscarriage of justice. The flimsy attention span of the media continues the abuse suffered by nearly a thousand people.
This is so horrifying. Well done for covering it, and writing it up so ecocatively. Hopefully justice will be done for all those poor people.
