A shocking inquiry has revealed that the Post Office Horizon IT scandal—where faulty software led to wrongful convictions of postal workers—may have driven over 13 people to suicide. With 10,000 victims now seeking compensation, the first official report exposes the devastating human toll of this decades-long injustice.
Editor’s Note: This isn’t just a tech failure—it’s a tragedy that ruined lives. The scale of suffering, including suicides, shows how institutions can gaslight victims for years. The fight for justice isn’t just about money; it’s about reckoning with a system that failed ordinary people catastrophically.
