## Resource

A new push for Trew’s Law demands automatic reviews of convictions tied to corrupt cops—like the case of Winston Trew, framed by officer Derek Ridgewell, who was jailed in 1980 for stealing mailbags but whose past misconduct went unchecked. Without a mandatory system, judges’ discretion leaves victims like Trew waiting decades for justice. Between 2023 and 2026, at least 64 officers were convicted of serious crimes—with no central record tracking whether their old cases were reviewed. Trew’s Law would require immediate scrutiny of past cases when an officer is jailed for misconduct, notify affected individuals, and ensure legal recourse. Advocates say the system is too slow and unreliable, especially as public trust in law enforcement erodes—calling for urgent reform to prevent more innocent lives from being destroyed by systemic failure.
