  • Sasha Wass KC (born 19 February 1958 in England) is a British judge, prosecutor and defender. Her father, Sir Douglas Wass, was a former senior British civil servant. She studied for her Degree at the University of Liverpool LLB (Hons) Law and has been practicing criminal law at the bar for over four decades having been called in 1981 and took Silk in 2000. She was appointed Recorder of the Crown Court in 1997 and a Recorder of the Central Criminal Court in 2008. She is part of the Chambers of Simon Denison KC 6KBW. Wass has more recently participated in BBCs Murder, Mystery and My Family, reviewing historical verdicts in criminal trials from a prosecutor's perspective, testing the evidence against today's conviction standards and submitting findings to a retired Judge. Whilst the trial reviews cannot reverse past verdicts, they can help families to come to terms with the potential miscarriages of justice many decades ago. As a senior criminal Barrister and formerly a QC she had helped to prosecute high profile cases, ranging from killer Rosemary West through to and including Rolf Harris and she successfully advised the disgraced financier Roger Levitt on his plea bargain deal with the SFO; she was credited with saving Levitt from serving jail time by agreeing to community service orders. Wass successfully fought and won a full apology for her 2018 libel action against the Mail on Sunday for an article by David Rose containing profoundly false accusations that they had published about her in 2016.
