In a shocking incident, a family's pet XL bully dog, Bruno, was mistakenly euthanized by Lancashire Police while they were in the process of applying for an exemption to keep him. The police have since apologized for the 'administration error' and have introduced new processes to prevent such mistakes in the future. Bruno's owner, Connor Halliwell, is taking the matter 'further' and plans to speak with his MP to seek answers and justice for his beloved pet. Despite negative comments on social media, Halliwell describes Bruno as a 'softie' who was good with kids. From 1 February, it became a criminal offence to own the XL bully breed in England and Wales without an exemption certificate, with strict regulations in place for those who do.

Terry Irving**, an Aboriginal man from north Queensland, spent over 3 years in prison for a bank robbery he didn't commit. He was maliciously prosecuted by police and wrongfully jailed for 1,671 days. His conviction was overturned by the High Court in 1997, but Queensland has not apologized or offered compensation. On Thursday, the Supreme Court heard submissions to determine how much compensation Irving is owed. His barrister, Gerard Mullins KC, called for 'significant' damages due to the 'complete lack of remorse' from the state. Irving, now 59, said 'no amount of money' could make up for the ordeal that left him in a 'small cell' and brought him to the 'doorstep of Brisbane’s supreme court building'.
