It says that the case could not be re-opened because for that you need new evidence, but the evidence was just overlooked during the initial trial. Even if all the existing evidence is enough to prove your innocence you somehow need "new" evidence to reopen your case. This is not the first time this happened either. It is very hard to get justice even when you are obviously innocent.
