Conviction Overturned: Tom Hayes Slams Politicised Trial as ‘Disgusting’

On Wednesday, the UK Supreme Court quashed the convictions of Hayes and ex-Barclays Plc trader Carlo Palombo, stating that the juries had been misdirected by judges at both criminal trials. Hayes was given an 11 year sentence after appeal for rigging Libor in 2015, while Palombo was jailed for four years in 2019 for manipulating Euribor.
