tinfoilhat Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I've not read too much about the case taxman, but you would have thought those who had made admissions might be put back in the frame. It's not often you'll see people admitting to murder or being part of it being given immunity from prosecution if they implicate someone else. I thought this article was interesting http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-26868038 Reading it a conviction was never on the cards, but somebody should have been convicted way before now.

Very interesting tfh, I wonder how secure that immunity is for those who admitted 'kicking' PC Blakelock? As taxman suggested, they might not have had to deliver the fatal blow in order to be prosecuted under the joint enterprise provisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blake Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 the original miscarraige of justice in this case did not reflect well, in the Met (and I'm talking about the London police, not the weather service). in 1985 they arrested three men within a week, and jailed each of them for life. Just like that. when six years earlier all they could do about New Zealander Blair Peach getting killed by police officers, was to narrow it down to about to one of about 15 guys. good luck mate whoever you are. I think the Met (and that is not the weather forecasting service) needs a body on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
