Justice for the 96

After a 27 year fight for justice, the thousands of Liverpool fans who travelled to Hillsborough on April 15, 1989 are now confirmed to have played no role in causing the disaster that ended with the loss of 96 lives. In a landmark decision jurors at the inquests into the tragedy ruled the actions of supporters in no way led to the deaths of 96 fans on the Leppings Lane terraces. The decision - which underlined the findings of the 2012 Hillsborough Independent Panel report - finally brings to an end 27 years of accusations waged against Reds fans on the day. Question seven of the 14 the jury were tasked with answering asked: Was there any behaviour on the part of the football supporters which caused or contributed to the dangerous situation at the Leppings Lane turnstiles? Delivering the verdict this morning the jury finally decided the answer was no.
