The biggest miscarriage of justice in the history of the Royal Mail. It is very important to know about this sad story. Due to a mistake in the program that postmasters in Britain were supposed to use, more than 700 people were falsely convicted. Mothers were torn away from their children and sent to prison for failure to pay, which the program showed. 14 people committed suicide. Alan Bates spent 20 years of his life, but won the trial of "555 postmasters", but the amount they received was negligible after paying for the lawyers' services. In the modern world, where "the computer is always right", "everything is always correct in my database" it is necessary for a person to have the opportunity to have priority in proving his innocence! A series of four paintings was written to draw attention to the "problem of computer databases" at contemporary art exhibitions.
