“Peter Sullivan was wrongfully convicted of killing florist Diane Sindall, 21, in Wirral, Merseyside, in 1986.”
DISPUTED
The claim states Peter Sullivan was convicted in 1986, but Wikipedia explicitly states he was convicted in 1987. The date discrepancy directly contradicts the claim, making it false.
