Rap Video Landed Us A 10 Year Prison Sentence | Guilty Bystander | Channel 4

Sherpa and Lewi spent nearly a decade in prison for an attack they weren’t present at - and their rap music was used in court as evidence to link them to the crime.

When a 16th birthday party turned violent in South London in 2009, Sharpa and Lewi hadn’t yet arrived. But the ‘guilty by association’ law meant they could be convicted as part of the gang that carried out the attack - even though they weren’t there.

Guilty Bystander explores the dramatic stories of people convicted under joint enterprise law, charged with a crime they were not present for, or even knew was going to happen.
