| dc.description.abstract | The court of criminal appeal quashed the verdict of manslaughter in the case of Arthur Castillo, a diver found guilty of causing his buddy’s death three years ago. Central to the appeal judgment is the report of one of the court-appointed experts, a doctor specialising in hyperbaric medicine. He was appointed by the court as a ‘diving fatalities’ expert. The judgment of February 22 confirms that this doctor’s report contained statements that went beyond his field of expertise and had the capacity to misadvise the court. | en_GB |
