You can't try a dead person. An inquest could effectively say they unlawfully killed someone, but again with the criteria.
So I would have thought, but why do I read on the BBC site today that "Police have launched a criminal investigation into Savile, who died last year aged 84."

because it is shorthand for "all the people who may potentially have been accessories"

And so the grim charade rolls on to its inevitable disappointing conclusion for the Hillsborough families...

Over indulgent, self obsessed, talent free, mawkish bollox ... despite this, the X-Factor single will not top the Charts this year.


I've managed not to listen to the LFC one so far, hopefully it will stay that way.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

However, the simple fact is that for a verdict of unlawful killing to be returned, a person or organisation has to be thought guilty of manslaughter. My prediction is that the inquest will not find that.

I also predict that the DPP will not bring manslaughter charges against any person or organisation. It's the law that he can only do this if he feels conviction is likely.

So my list of predictions for the predictions thread.

1. The new inquest will not find a new verdict.
2. The DPP will not bring manslaughter charges against any person or organisation.
3. The DPP will charge the SYP with an offence under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974.
4. SYP will be convicted of an offence under the Health and Safety at Work etc. Act 1974.
No wonder he doesn't post on here any more! He'll have been drummed out of the legal profession with predictions like that

Well, he's not a criminal lawyer, but I suspect he doesn't post because his interests lie more in art than BWFC. Not to mention, in Capri he recently married a noted entertainer and honeymooned it Italy (with her and a pug). Nonetheless, in Facebook he did express his astonishment at the charges against David Duckenfield so his legal opinion would appear not to have altered.

I thought mummy was banned? Hello again. I'll pop by in a couple of years again. Screw allegiances. The police deserve to pay for what they did.

""The new evidence that we're presented with today makes clear in my view that these families have suffered a double injustice: the injustice of the appalling events, the failure of the state to protect transfers Caen their loved ones, and the indefensible wait to get the truth, and then the injustice of the denigration of the deceased - that they were somehow at fault for their own deaths. So on behalf of the government, and indeed our country, I am profoundly sorry that this double injustice has been left uncorrected for so long."

Well 1 out of 5 ain't that impressive! In all seriousness, I hope that the families draw a line under it all now. It was remarkable what they achieved and the dignity in which they did it but the deaths were down to a catalog of failures and not to one individual.
