Another article appeared in the Telegraph on July 1st stating that Sir Richard Henriques was to review the investigation "to provide some independent scrutiny". Mike Veale had wanted Prof Alexis Jay to do this but she refused. It does look like a major operation has been in progress to try to shift responsibility elsewhere.

Here it is under a different title:

Word credible as used is meaningless, as used by the police and CPS often in media releases, as is the use of "sufficient evidence" and other similar statements. Basically an official "cover up" for incompetence in many of these type of cases.
Even Sir Richard Henriques in his report "An independent inquiry into allegations made against Lord Greville Janner" does not provide any reliable evidence to back up his conclusions.
One key word from the code is RELIABLE which is often completely IGNORED.
Extract from "The Code For Crown Prosecutors" January 2013 edition
The Evidential Stage "Have highlighted some keys words and phrases"
4.4 Prosecutors must be satisfied that there is sufficient evidence to provide a realistic prospect of conviction against each suspect on each charge. They must consider what the defence case may be, and how it is likely to affect the prospects of conviction. A case which does not pass the evidential stage must not proceed, no matter how serious or sensitive it may be.
4.5 The finding that there is a realistic prospect of conviction is based on the prosecutor’s objective assessment of the evidence, including the impact of any defence and any other information that the suspect has put forward or on which he or she might rely. It means that an objective, impartial and reasonable jury or bench of magistrates or judge hearing a case alone, properly directed and acting in accordance with the law, is more likely than not to convict the defendant of the charge alleged. This is a different test from the one that the criminal courts themselves must apply. A court may only convict if it is sure that the defendant is guilty.
4.6 When deciding whether there is sufficient evidence to prosecute, prosecutors should ask themselves the following:
Can the evidence be used in court?
Prosecutors should consider whether there is any question over the admissibility of certain evidence. In doing so, prosecutors should assess:
a)
the likelihood of that evidence being held as inadmissible by the court; and
b)
the importance of that evidence in relation to the evidence as a whole.
Is the evidence reliable?
Prosecutors should consider whether there are any reasons to question the reliability of the evidence, including its accuracy or integrity.
Is the evidence credible?
Prosecutors should consider whether there are any reasons to doubt the credibility of the evidence.
"objective, impartial and reasonable" is in almost all cases non existent so if the police, CPS and prosecutors were to professionally, with integrity do their job to the expected standard need to learn to create a hypothetical jury or judges who fitted the stated criteria as opposed to knowing that they can use emotional tactics and behind the scence antics to persuade normal judge/s and/or jury to convict.
Credible is ok for an initial assessment. Take for example the train station and the Mark Preston walk past the complainant scenario. As the case ended in court the complainant must of sounded credible. Thus this case demonstrates the utter stupidity, criminal behaviour and so of the police, prosecutors and the CPS in that "belief only" is enough for them to act upon. The "believe anything" that sounds credible approach.
The facts of the Mark Preston case themselves in reality were never credible. And this was of course confirmed by the CCTV. So in Mark's case the reliable evidence in reality always showed his innocence and the credible sounding complainant as totally unreliable, in this case the complainant was lying. Why she lied, of course, is another issue.
At this stage in the Edward Heath Report from media statements about seven credible witnesses and nothing reported to reliability tests of the credible sounding stories is pointing to "a cover up" of police total incompetence.
As to recording of reports as crimes then the complainants obtaining compensation is further incompetence. The recording of a reported crime seems ok but how it is assessed and how the computer programmer has allocated sections for assessment of the complainant and the reported crime may be a key problem or not used correctly. Like a motor accident or a house break in are two situations the complainant may well be the criminal in the case as it a false crime report to obtain insurance money as opposed to a real accident or break in.
The issue of evidence and also of assessing a crime is all BASIC level stuff and the evidenced fact of incompetence in how both are handled would indicate the police and others are employing criminals, people who excel at stupidity and people who cover.
Conclusion at this stage is nothing stated that I know of to confirm that the seven were providing reliable evidence that could be confirmed. And thus there is nothing provided to detract from the likelihood that the seven were individuals who "sounded" very believable like the actor complainant in the Mark Preston case.(Hope I am wrong!) |
