Prince Harry's Landmark Phone Hacking Victory Against UK Tabloid

Piers Morgan's statement on the recent High Court ruling that phone hacking and unlawful information gathering occurred during his tenure as editor at Mirror Group Newspapers has been annotated by the Claimants' legal analyst. The analyst points out that Morgan's statement is misleading, as there are still numerous articles from that period that have not yet been ruled on by the judge. The judge found that Morgan knew about voicemail interception and knowingly published articles based on it. The judge's findings contradict Morgan's previous denials, including those made at the Leveson Inquiry. Morgan's statement also includes personal attacks on individuals involved in the case, including Prince Harry.

Prince Harry Triumphs in Landmark Phone Hacking Case, Exposing Tabloid's Intrusion

Prince Harry has emerged victorious in his legal battle against Mirror Group Newspapers (MGN) after a judge found the newspaper group engaged in extensive phone hacking and covered it up at a board level.

Harry was awarded modest damages but emphasized that the trial was about holding the newspapers accountable rather than the money. Piers Morgan, former editor of the Mirror, was named by Harry, who recommended further inquiries by UK authorities.
