AFTER sitting for eleven weeks and hearing one hundred witnesses the jury in the inquest on the Brazilian Jean Charles de Menezes - who was killed in July 2006 in London after being misidentified by the police as a terrorist -- has been told that it cannot consider a verdict of unlawful killing. The judge conducting the inquest, Sir Michael Wright, told the jurors that the evidence did not justify such a conclusion and that they must therefore choose between deciding that Mr Menezes was lawfully killed and bringing in an open verdict.
