IT is 15 years since Barry George was released from jail after his conviction for the murder of Jill Dando was overturned, but even now he feels his "full liberty" is denied him.
He spent eight years in prison for a crime he did not commit, but received no compensation, and the Met Police have still to find the real killer, meaning people still point the finger at him.
Now he has taken part in the Netflix documentary Who Killed Jill Dando?, hoping it will help clear his name.
Barry, 63, told the Mirror: "The end game is I want to show, publicly, that there's no way I could have done this." Asked if he felt free, he paused, and said: "Not when I feel like I'm having to look over my shoulder all the time in case there are people following me about, or police forces potentially trying to fit me up for something else.
LIBERTY
"In that sense, I don't feel free. To be outside a prison wall, yes I feel free, to a certain degree.
"I've got some liberty back, but not my full liberty. I've been found not guilty through appeal, and I've been released.
"I rise to the challenge, because if I don't then there are many people out there who would walk over me.
