Why is Richard's Dad More Successful Than Richard? Leading criminal defence barrister Paul Bacon argues the case as to why he’s more successful than Richard. Paul tells us about representing the convicted murderer Michael Stone for over 20 years, who he maintains is the victim of a miscarriage of justice over the murder of Lin and Megan Russell in 1996; Paul’s successful defence of Ruth Neave, who was wrongly accused of murdering her young son Rikki in 1994, and how the case was finally solved 18 years later; changing the law to help those with mental health issues; meeting with the serial killer Levi Bellfield; working alongside child murderer Ian Huntley’s defence team; and his never-ending pride in his son, who has never, ever disappointed him (his son being the broadcaster Richard Bacon).
