263 PRIME SUSPECTS IN KILLINGS WHO'VE NEVER FACED A TRIAL

HUNDREDS of suspected killers are on our streets because there is not enough evidence to put them away.

In the last three years, detectives had a prime suspect in 263 homicide cases but could not charge them.

They included many accused of gun murders and stabbings who could not be brought to trial because witnesses were too scared to go to court.

David Spencer, of the Centre for Crime Prevention, said: "It is deeply concerning that hundreds of violent criminals are roaming our streets because the evidence is not there to prosecute them.

"People should come forward and share any evidence they might have that could help solve and bring the victims' families and friends some peace."
