For the past 20 years UK post office employees have been dealing with a piece of software called horizon, which had a fatal flaw that made it look like employees stole tens of thousands of British pounds.

After fighting for decades 39 people are finally having their convictions overturned after what is reportedly the largest miscarriage of justice that the UK has ever seen.
