A disabled woman, who was jailed for causing the death of a cyclist before having her conviction quashed, is seeking compensation for ‘unnecessary and prolonged suffering’ after spending a year behind bars.

But in May she dramatically had her manslaughter conviction overturned by the Court of Appeal.
The decision led her family to call for ‘lessons to be learned,’ saying that vulnerable people needed better support from the justice system.
