Some of the recently information included in official police statements and media interviews by senior officers - reported, I assume, with some element of privilege - would have given any newspaper lawyer of my acquaintance the hebee-gebees had they turned up in a reporter's copy. Principal offenders are Greater Manchester Police, who seem to have decided that the alleged crimes of Dale Cregan are so heinous that the substantial risk of serious prejudice simply doesn't apply to him.
