This is really sad and scary. It shows abuse of power and also negligence, because with so many complaints and repeated incidents over time, this should have been investigated early on, and the operations should have been carefully checked. Now no one can compensate those who suffered mentally, morally, and especially not those who felt so overwhelmed in that situation that they ended up committing suicide. And I can see that it's not over. There are many interests involved in that technological failure, and who knows who really benefited from all that money and now doesn't want to let go. In a scandal of this magnitude, not everything comes to the surface, my friend.
This is a great post and I thank you for sharing. Your effort has not been in vain.

So many people were crying out their innocence at the beginning but they were all on their own. Social media wasn't so developed back then and no one knew about this one little incident. It wasn't until Mr Bates started coordinating things, then many single incidences became one big issue and scandal.
The TV series highlighted a few of the many cases, including a sub postmaster who walked in front of a bus and killed himself. Then the Post Office went to visit his widow and paid her a sum of money in return for her keeping silent 🤬. That's hope bad it is
