In The Know (as always) I find this particularly disturbing -

==

The new inquiry faced a dilemma in trying to get witness accounts of the attack on PC Blakelock because the prosecution needed witnesses who were close enough to see clearly what happened.

As some of them may have taken part themselves - making them liable for possible prosecution - the police and the Crown Prosecution Service decided to pursue those who they believed had weapons as suspects and regard unarmed attackers who punched and kicked as witnesses.

Yet again it shows the CPS working with the police in trying to "cobble together" a case ... when their job is to independently oversee an investigation and decide whether there is evidence to prosecute, and

It could be interpreted as "doing deals" with lesser criminals in order to "secure" the desired evidence (ie procure the "evidence" which at present does not exist).

I'm sure the Court of Appeal will agree with me !!!!
In The Know (as always) After the initial inquiries - 359 were arrested and most interviewed without lawyers present - four people were charged and convicted.

The Court of Appeal overturned the verdict - doubting police notes made at the time. Two police officers were charged with perverting the course of justice - but acquitted (LOL !)

Now .. a new trial ... 10 people arrested but only one has been charged.

Does anyone have any faith in the outcome?

Isn't it clearly the case that they will prosecute anyone until someone take the blame ?
