  • More about Nothing Like the Truth: The Trials and Tribulations of a Criminal Judge


In 100% of criminal trials, someone lies, and without liars, there would be no trials. In Nothing Like the Truth, Nigel Lithman QC provides an entertaining and irreverent insight into life in the criminal courts, mixing tales of horror with humor and questioning whether defendants can get a fair trial.

In the vast majority of criminal trials, it is not uncommon for individuals, if not everyone, to engage in the act of lying. Without the presence of liars, the very concept of trials would not exist. When a defendant solemnly vows to speak the truth, the entirety of the truth, and nothing but the truth, the majority of judges and barristers hold the belief that their evidence will differ significantly from the actual truth. It is understandable for them to hold such a belief, as they have been exposed to a daily routine of murder, violence, and deception for years. Over time, they have heard countless stories of lies and liars, making it difficult for them to discern what is truly real and what is merely a fabrication.

In his book, Nothing Like the Truth, Nigel Lithman QC, a barrister, QC, and Crown Court judge, offers an entertaining and unconventional perspective on life within the criminal courts. Drawing upon his expertise in true crime, Lithman blends tales of horror with humor, raising questions about the possibility of defendants receiving fair trials. Through his experiences, Lithman sheds light on the intricacies and challenges of the legal system, providing a captivating and thought-provoking exploration of the world of criminal justice.
