answer text <p>The Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) does hold records identifying the number of defendants prosecuted, at the Crown Court, where the Principal Offence has been identified as homicide. However, it does not maintain a separate central record of defendants prosecuted specifically for murder or of cases where the issue of loss of control has been raised as a live issue. This information could only be obtained by examining CPS case files, which would incur a disproportionate cost.</p><p> </p> more like this
