Kate Hoey was on any questions last night stating how terrible it was that the police were revealing their findings from 9 years ago, not to the official authorities, but to the media.

JK2006	Excellent article by Oborne - of course, ten years ago cops regularly planted porn on computers - it was the modern equivalent of them "finding" drugs on searches but as new technology arrived with the ability to backup on the Cloud (why do you think that cop asked Cliff if he was on the cloud, which confused the poor dear) and other places, plus the removal of forensics away from police into private companies (check out Manchester) they couldn't do it these days without proof being able to be found very easily. Look how fast they dropped the Rolf Harris claims.
'M'	Good points made here most echoing what have been said withing this forum some for many years. www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-51382...ys-Peter-Oborne.html
robbiex	I'm totally shocked by the retired cop revealing the contents of a computer that was searched 9 years ago. As long as he found nothing illegal (which he didn't), he shouldn't reveal what he found as this is a total breach of data protection laws.
