    Sadly with great experience surrounding Military Police practice, I have always been of the opinion that the MOD Police have always been "wanting" and lack "real and meaningful" investigative skills, and should stick to what they are good at, which is man guarding gates, their real purpose in life. They have always wanted to be real coppers!!

    The times I have had to take over an enquiry from them, at a time when your own workload was massive, leaves me counting with both socks off and gloves off, its been that many times!!

    This case shows their true incompetence, recognised by the Judge himself. He must have been so frustrated sending the jury in and out over matters of "incompetence" which would materially be held back from their ears, so that they could hear the facts, if there ever were any.

    Anyway, great news for all of you, lets see what gets rightfully handed back in smart and timely fashion, and don't hold your breath, for the press report doing a rightful clearance piece, because you will be waiting a long time!!!

    The stress you and your family have experienced can never be compensated................they should hold their heads in shame! Now no doubt they will chase the L96 one supposes as they get bored!
