You've just got to love when a key suspect and the initial whistle blower winds up dead and their death is "not considered suspicious".
This might just be the naive opinion of a common man, but shouldn't it be mandatory that when anyone dies in a criminal investigation it must be considered suspicious until proven non-suspicious.
I'm sorry, but this is a case where corruption in police and government officials isn't only clear, but it's visible from miles away. Yet it's being permitted that a whistle-blowers death is considered "not suspicious"
- espeed 15y agoNot only that, it looks like it's being flagged off the front page -- yeah it's gone from the main stream -- it only shows up under "new".
- pohl 15y agoI'm curious. Are the police who said it is not considered suspicious the same police force this chief resigned from? http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/E/EU_BRITAIN_PHONE_HACKING?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2011-07-17-14-38-33 http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/E/EU_BRITAIN_PHONE_HACK... The crisis has also triggered upheaval in the upper ranks of Britain's police. Monday's resignation of Assistant Commissioner John Yates - Scotland Yard's top anti-terrorist officer - followed that Sunday of police chief Paul Stephenson. Both stepped down for links to an arrested former executive from Murdoch's shuttered News of the World tabloid.
- electromagnetic 15y agoThat's exactly my thoughts. Whomever said that it is "not considered suspicious" just instantly placed themselves under suspicion for corruption.
- idiopathic 15y agoI had thought the same thing until I read the comment from anigbrowl - police are not saying there is nothing to investigate, just that, in UK police jargon, there are no obvious signs of a homicide.
