If this is the 'best' that the Met Police can do, I dread to think what one of their worst scenarios, or a cock-up would be like! Someone should be on trial here for manslaughter. It appears to be a catalogue of muddle and lies to cover up.

Agree totally with Neil above. Definately not the first time an innocent person has been gunned down in cold blood by the police. (would like to see the statistics of how many people they have shot dead now) They messed up big time, now somebody should take the rap.

Do not understand why nobody has stood trial for murder. The guy who squeezed the trigger intended to kill him ( 7 times!).

Today's police force is not respected and admired as it was in 60's and before.

Good day for a hanging!

The murderous Police are no better than the criminals that they clainm to be protecting us from. Our 'brave' boys in blue deserve all they get and more on the streets of our country.
