Auriol Grey was jailed for three years over the death of Celia Ward who fell into the path of an oncoming vehicle.
The manslaughter trial of a pedestrian who shouted and waved at a cyclist, causing her to fall into the path of an oncoming car, went ahead on a “false legal footing”, the Court of Appeal has heard.
Grey, who has cerebral palsy and partial blindness, denied manslaughter but was found guilty after a retrial and was jailed for three years in March 2023. However, her lawyers told appeal judges that no such “base offence” was ever identified at the trial. Mr Darbishire said: “Hostile gesticulation is not a crime, otherwise we would have 50,000 football fans each weekend being apprehended.”
