One should never tell a lawyer what he doesn't want Crown to Know

Police Chief Blocks Probe Into Bungled Investigation
Feb 24 2008 By Marion Scott

A POLICE chief forced to apologise over a bungled death probe is refusing to ask another force to reopen the case.

The police complaints watchdog ordered Northern Constabulary Chief Constable Ian Latimer to say sorry in person to the parents of Kevin McLeod, 24, who drowned in Wick harbour 11 years ago.

Kevin suffered massive internal injuries and his family believe he was viciously beaten then dumped in the water.

But Latimer has refused calls to let another force investigate the murder claim.

In a letter to the family last week he wrote: "I see no opportunity or reasoning to support a more wide-ranging review."

But Kevin's uncle Allan McLeod said yesterday: "We are absolutely outraged at the arrogance of this man.

"If he has nothing to hide he'd welcome an outside force investigating the case. We won't rest until we get justice for Kevin

Hi Allan

I was just reading that story in the Sunday Mail at  :
http://www.sundaymail.co.uk/news/...led-investigation-78057-20329420/

About time the Justice Secretary intervened in this case and sees justice done rather than denied.

Everyone must be wondering just whose interests are being served here by not having the full & proper inquiry into Kevin's death which should have happened in the first place - and just why the interests of some who made bad decisions are being prioritised over a life.

Quote:
Some quotes from this "murderous and heinous" covered up case ... at the murky hands of Messrs Salmond, MacAskill, Ms Sturgeon and their SNP "Government":

"The best years of his life have been completely wasted, ruined and destroyed and can never be given back to him... NOTHING will ever compensate for what's happened to him now...

"I'm glad to see I wasn't the only journalist who failed ****, although I would like to be able to say that someone in my profession had helped him... "

__________

Yet still nothing was done.  To the detached observer it seems at best incredible, and at worst heinously negligent, that no-one  properly intervened.

__________

When you are fully informed of any wrongdoing, criminality and injustice, and you choose not to properly act and intervene to put an immediate stop to that wrongdoing, criminality and injustice, then you too are undoubtedly complicit, culpable and guilty for your actions or inactions.

__________

... even one injustice in Scotland is one too many [Yes ... this case IS one injustice too many Iain, as you rightly say.  An appalling travesty of justice then, that NOBODY did a thing about.  So much for all those so-called champions and crusaders against injustice!]

To sin by SILENCE when they should protest makes cowards of men

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil [and INJUSTICE] is for good men to do nothing


Indeed ... no names, but there are many out there, those so-called "champions against injustice" and "brave, bold, respected, honest and investigative" journalists, who should search their consciences over this appalling case of abuse, neglect and INJUSTICE ... and hang their heads in SHAME (... on you all).

Kevin Mcleod Case -

There is an article to be published by Marion Scott in this weeks Sunday Mail (2nd March) relating to Kevins Case and issues regarding Police Misconduct.

Should be an interesting read.
