1
00:00:00,023 --> 00:00:04,119
Operation Lighthouse, re
the unsolved murder of Gail Vella
2
00:00:04,143 --> 00:00:06,143
on September 10th, 2019.
3
00:00:07,778 --> 00:00:11,281
The name we've been given
is Ross Turner.
4
00:00:12,035 --> 00:00:13,435
Enter the property.
5
00:00:16,436 --> 00:00:20,356
5-3, DP for custody
transfer, bringing suspect out now.
6
00:00:22,254 --> 00:00:25,990
Interview of Terry Boyle by
Detective Chief Inspector Davidson.
7
00:00:26,272 --> 00:00:28,832
Mr Boyle, did you shoot Gail Vella?
8
00:00:28,859 --> 00:00:31,875
Synced & corrected by -robtor-
www.addic7ed.com
9
00:00:34,063 --> 00:00:35,279
Did anyone see that?
10
00:00:35,303 --> 00:00:37,823
Armed police! Drop your weapons!
Drop your weapons!
11
00:00:41,263 --> 00:00:43,759
A significant number of other
fingerprints
12
00:00:43,783 --> 00:00:47,253
match an individual identified by
the Police National Computer
13
00:00:47,296 --> 00:00:48,959
as Carl Banks.
14
00:00:48,983 --> 00:00:51,039
Carl Banks has an
extensive history of violence,
15
00:00:51,063 --> 00:00:52,503
including firearms offences.
16
00:00:55,303 --> 00:00:57,264
The person who made me see
that there was another way
17
00:00:57,289 --> 00:01:00,520
to be a useful member of society
was a police officer.
18
00:01:00,583 --> 00:01:03,181
He's the reason why I wanted
to become a police officer too.
19
00:01:04,583 --> 00:01:05,903
To help people.
20
00:01:07,423 --> 00:01:10,164
I can't share any details,
but we might be looking into Vella.
21
00:01:10,194 --> 00:01:12,218
Great, so either I'm accused of
being a traitor
22
00:01:12,242 --> 00:01:14,479
or I become one to avoid being accused.
23
00:01:15,063 --> 00:01:17,799
We really can't be sure about
the loyalty of some of these people.
24
00:01:17,823 --> 00:01:19,503
They could banjax the whole thing.
25
00:01:22,623 --> 00:01:23,999
I sent a photo to the handler.
26
00:01:24,023 --> 00:01:26,039
He confirms it's the CHIS.
27
00:01:26,063 --> 00:01:28,239
You're not suggesting
Davidson was involved?
28
00:01:28,263 --> 00:01:30,543
You have no idea what she's capable of.
29
00:01:32,903 --> 00:01:34,215
It's over.
30
00:01:34,239 --> 00:01:37,263
- How come I've never met your family?
- I don't have one.
31
00:01:39,183 --> 00:01:41,199
I've released him without charge.
32
00:01:41,223 --> 00:01:43,799
No way am I going after someone
like Terry Boyle
33
00:01:43,823 --> 00:01:45,321
because he's the easy way out.
34
00:01:46,023 --> 00:01:47,319
Is everything OK?
35
00:01:47,834 --> 00:01:49,921
- I should, um...
- Yeah.
36
00:02:10,952 --> 00:02:12,208
Good morning.
37
00:02:12,233 --> 00:02:13,273
Sir.
38
00:02:15,263 --> 00:02:17,361
Thank you, as you were, as you were.
39
00:02:17,863 --> 00:02:22,999
I have authorised an official AC-12
inquiry into Operation Lighthouse.
40
00:02:23,023 --> 00:02:28,119
Gail Vella's murder is this force's
highest-profile investigation.
41
00:02:28,143 --> 00:02:29,599
It will be our job to detect
42
00:02:29,623 --> 00:02:32,439
whether police misconduct
and/or corruption
43
00:02:32,463 --> 00:02:35,623
has contributed to this murder
remaining unsolved.
44
00:02:36,684 --> 00:02:38,601
- DS Arnott.
- Sir.
45
00:02:40,248 --> 00:02:44,824
SIO on Lighthouse is Detective
Chief Inspector Joanne Davidson.
46
00:02:44,849 --> 00:02:48,705
No MIT officers are aware AC-12
is scrutinising Lighthouse.
47
00:02:48,730 --> 00:02:51,266
All information we've harvested
so far has been acquired
48
00:02:51,291 --> 00:02:54,481
from a source on the Hill
known as Officer J.
49
00:03:00,536 --> 00:03:01,872
...to our inquiry.
50
00:03:01,983 --> 00:03:05,559
The CHIS's name
was Alastair Oldroyd, age 22.
51
00:03:05,583 --> 00:03:08,559
Oldroyd was in a pub on the night
of October 26th
52
00:03:08,583 --> 00:03:10,882
and the person calling himself
Ross Turner
53
00:03:10,906 --> 00:03:13,359
gave Oldroyd homophobic abuse.
54
00:03:13,383 --> 00:03:15,405
Turner intimidated Oldroyd
55
00:03:15,429 --> 00:03:18,903
by allegedly boasting of involvement
in Gail Vella's murder.
56
00:03:31,503 --> 00:03:34,361
- Sorry, sir. Have you got a sec?
- Come in.
57
00:03:34,903 --> 00:03:36,194
You don't need me to tell you
58
00:03:36,218 --> 00:03:39,559
we need a witness to this meeting
between Oldroyd and Turner
59
00:03:39,583 --> 00:03:41,840
to identify whether it was Boyle
or Banks.
60
00:03:41,866 --> 00:03:44,679
Unfortunately, the CHIS lied
about the name of the pub.
61
00:03:44,703 --> 00:03:47,439
Handler believes he was protecting
friends who trade drugs there.
62
00:03:47,463 --> 00:03:49,079
We're checking out establishments
63
00:03:49,103 --> 00:03:51,359
in the vicinity
of Beechwood House for CCTV,
64
00:03:51,383 --> 00:03:53,639
plus local authority cameras
in the area,
65
00:03:53,663 --> 00:03:56,519
just in the hope of identifying
Oldroyd, Banks or Boyle
66
00:03:56,543 --> 00:03:57,879
on the night of the 26th.
67
00:03:57,903 --> 00:04:00,222
- Cheers, Chris. Crack on.
- Boss.
68
00:04:00,246 --> 00:04:01,583
- Thanks.
- Ma'am.
69
00:04:03,703 --> 00:04:05,439
Boss, obviously we've got to consider
70
00:04:05,463 --> 00:04:07,599
whether Oldroyd's death
was suicide or murder.
71
00:04:07,623 --> 00:04:09,039
Hence we're investigating it.
72
00:04:09,063 --> 00:04:11,519
Yeah, I'm not saying anything
you don't already know, boss,
73
00:04:11,543 --> 00:04:13,559
but if it was murder,
then it raises the question
74
00:04:13,583 --> 00:04:16,223
that someone knew Oldroyd
had info on Gail Vella's death.
75
00:04:17,263 --> 00:04:20,399
I know. I hate to say it, Kate,
76
00:04:20,423 --> 00:04:22,599
but one thing I've learned
over the years,
77
00:04:22,623 --> 00:04:24,703
the fewer coppers in the loop,
the better.
78
00:04:50,940 --> 00:04:52,356
What's going on with Farida Jatri?
79
00:04:52,623 --> 00:04:54,399
I was about to ask the same, sir.
80
00:04:54,423 --> 00:04:56,639
She's just handed in a transfer request.
81
00:04:56,663 --> 00:04:58,599
Personal reasons.
82
00:04:58,623 --> 00:05:00,159
She's an experienced PS.
83
00:05:00,354 --> 00:05:02,794
We're at a crucial phase of Vella.
84
00:05:05,361 --> 00:05:09,601
In confidence, sir, I've noticed
some issues with PS Jatri.
85
00:05:10,263 --> 00:05:11,721
What kind of issues?
86
00:05:12,641 --> 00:05:15,561
I don't want to say anything
that might come back to haunt us.
87
00:05:15,585 --> 00:05:17,759
Last thing you need is a tribunal.
88
00:05:17,915 --> 00:05:19,395
What?
89
00:05:20,463 --> 00:05:21,839
I'll draft a glowing reference,
90
00:05:21,864 --> 00:05:24,344
and she'll be some
other station's problem.
91
00:05:26,079 --> 00:05:27,479
You're a life-saver.
92
00:05:28,735 --> 00:05:29,895
Yeah.
93
00:05:40,383 --> 00:05:41,543
- Sir.
- What have you got?
94
00:05:41,567 --> 00:05:42,639
Sir, the team have managed
95
00:05:42,663 --> 00:05:44,960
to pull some Gail Vella reports
from our archive.
96
00:05:45,002 --> 00:05:47,863
Obviously, they all relate to
cases involving AC-12.
97
00:05:49,023 --> 00:05:51,079
Chief Inspector Osbourne!
98
00:05:51,103 --> 00:05:53,679
Chief Inspector Osbourne!
99
00:05:53,703 --> 00:05:56,399
I take pride
in the courage and professionalism
100
00:05:56,423 --> 00:05:59,358
of my counterterrorism officers.
To say any more
101
00:05:59,382 --> 00:06:02,119
risks prejudicing the inquest.
Thank you.
102
00:06:02,143 --> 00:06:04,279
Chief Inspector!
103
00:06:04,303 --> 00:06:06,119
Official police statements record
104
00:06:06,143 --> 00:06:08,679
counter-terrorism officers
shouted, "Armed police"
105
00:06:08,703 --> 00:06:11,218
and ordered Mr Ali to surrender.
106
00:06:11,242 --> 00:06:14,479
Mr Ali's widow, Aaliyah, insists
there was no warning,
107
00:06:14,503 --> 00:06:15,959
no chance to surrender
108
00:06:15,983 --> 00:06:18,759
before her husband was gunned down
by a hail of bullets.
109
00:06:18,961 --> 00:06:20,519
They lied through their teeth,
110
00:06:20,543 --> 00:06:23,239
every single one of them,
except you, Steve.
111
00:06:23,263 --> 00:06:25,119
I mean, talk about an outrage.
112
00:06:25,143 --> 00:06:26,765
A commanding officer made chief.
113
00:06:26,789 --> 00:06:30,439
If that had happened on my patch...
Jesus.
114
00:06:30,463 --> 00:06:31,959
Next one, Chloe.
115
00:06:43,784 --> 00:06:47,280
A jury found retired Chief
Superintendent Patrick Fairbank
116
00:06:47,305 --> 00:06:49,641
guilty of all charges.
117
00:06:49,666 --> 00:06:53,162
What that jury didn't hear, and
only now am I allowed to report,
118
00:06:53,263 --> 00:06:56,694
are allegations Patrick Fairbank
suppressed police investigations
119
00:06:56,718 --> 00:06:58,679
into child sexual exploitation
120
00:06:58,703 --> 00:07:00,759
that transcended local political figures
121
00:07:00,783 --> 00:07:03,039
such as Councillor Dale Roach.
122
00:07:03,063 --> 00:07:04,959
It's now a matter of public record
123
00:07:04,983 --> 00:07:07,304
that Jimmy Savile cultivated
relationships
124
00:07:07,328 --> 00:07:09,319
with senior police officers.
125
00:07:09,343 --> 00:07:11,117
Savile exploited those relationships
126
00:07:11,148 --> 00:07:15,249
to intimidate anyone attempting
to investigate his offending.
127
00:07:15,273 --> 00:07:17,049
We now realise what Savile was getting
128
00:07:17,073 --> 00:07:20,194
out of those relationships
with senior police officers.
129
00:07:20,218 --> 00:07:23,409
What remains unknown and uninvestigated
130
00:07:23,433 --> 00:07:24,889
is what those officers were getting
131
00:07:24,913 --> 00:07:27,369
out of their relationship with Savile.
132
00:07:27,393 --> 00:07:29,929
Gail Vella, reporting
from Queen Elizabeth Law Courts.
133
00:07:30,521 --> 00:07:32,710
So Gail Vella drew attention
to alleged links
134
00:07:32,734 --> 00:07:36,009
between organised crime, politicians
and senior police officers.
135
00:07:36,275 --> 00:07:39,075
And these are just the reports
we found in our own archive.
136
00:07:41,075 --> 00:07:43,435
Wee girl killed in cold blood...
137
00:07:44,993 --> 00:07:46,841
...and her killer free as a bird.
138
00:07:49,753 --> 00:07:51,761
- Thank you, Chloe.
- Sir.
139
00:07:55,284 --> 00:07:57,164
- Cheers, Chloe.
- Sarge.
140
00:08:02,033 --> 00:08:03,529
Gaffer, it can't be a coincidence
141
00:08:03,553 --> 00:08:06,289
Carl Banks was a violent offender
involved with organised crime.
142
00:08:06,313 --> 00:08:07,969
Yeah, but if your man pulled
the trigger,
143
00:08:07,993 --> 00:08:09,809
that means he's a gun for hire.
144
00:08:09,833 --> 00:08:11,729
That order came from higher up.
145
00:08:12,381 --> 00:08:13,769
But the question still remains,
146
00:08:13,793 --> 00:08:15,969
what is the motive
for Gail Vella's murder?
147
00:08:15,993 --> 00:08:18,969
All right, she's a controversial
journalist. I'll give you that.
148
00:08:18,993 --> 00:08:21,689
But there's no evidence to suggest
that she dug up anything
149
00:08:21,713 --> 00:08:23,209
that wasn't there before.
150
00:08:23,475 --> 00:08:25,715
Maybe she was working on something
that would.
151
00:08:32,153 --> 00:08:34,073
Superintendent Hastings.
152
00:08:39,233 --> 00:08:40,513
Thanks, Steve. Thanks.
153
00:08:42,169 --> 00:08:43,385
Sir.
154
00:08:43,417 --> 00:08:45,537
Yeah, I'll be right down.
155
00:09:00,833 --> 00:09:02,209
Steph, what are you doing here?
156
00:09:02,233 --> 00:09:04,169
You promised you'd call me back.
It's HMRC.
157
00:09:04,193 --> 00:09:07,353
Not here, not here,
let's go somewhere private.
158
00:09:42,793 --> 00:09:44,152
- Tea, coffee?
- No, we're fine.
159
00:09:44,176 --> 00:09:45,249
Thanks, though.
160
00:09:45,273 --> 00:09:48,026
Cool. So, have a seat.
161
00:09:48,054 --> 00:09:50,745
- Cheers.
- How can I help you?
162
00:09:50,789 --> 00:09:54,009
I would like to ask you some
questions about Gail Vella.
163
00:09:54,477 --> 00:09:56,809
You were working with her closely
at the time of her death.
164
00:09:56,833 --> 00:09:58,849
Detectives interviewed me a few
days after.
165
00:09:59,161 --> 00:10:02,489
Our department
is conducting further inquiries.
166
00:10:02,921 --> 00:10:05,609
Yeah, I was her producer for a
couple of years.
167
00:10:05,633 --> 00:10:08,929
Well, one line of inquiry is
she fell victim to an obsessed fan.
168
00:10:08,953 --> 00:10:11,929
Do you recall any individuals
that gave Gail cause for concern?
169
00:10:11,953 --> 00:10:13,849
Female journalists get the worst of it,
170
00:10:13,873 --> 00:10:16,289
from accusations of bias
to threats of sexual violence.
171
00:10:16,313 --> 00:10:19,249
Everything was reported at the time
to our security or to the police.
172
00:10:19,273 --> 00:10:22,409
You say Miss Vella received threats
as a result of her reporting.
173
00:10:22,433 --> 00:10:24,801
Were there any particularly
controversial reports?
174
00:10:27,073 --> 00:10:28,793
Maybe I should just show you.
175
00:10:29,913 --> 00:10:32,489
The Deputy Chief Constable
and I are pleased to report
176
00:10:32,513 --> 00:10:35,849
that Operation Pear Tree has
completed a thorough investigation
177
00:10:35,873 --> 00:10:37,849
into institutionalised complicity
178
00:10:37,873 --> 00:10:41,089
between organised criminals
and corrupt police officers.
179
00:10:41,113 --> 00:10:43,809
Its robust findings couldn't be clearer.
180
00:10:43,833 --> 00:10:47,969
There is no institutionalised
corruption in this police force.
181
00:10:47,993 --> 00:10:51,501
Operation Pear Tree,
the inquiry described
182
00:10:51,525 --> 00:10:55,329
as the most thorough ever undertaken
into police corruption,
183
00:10:55,353 --> 00:10:57,049
is now officially closed.
184
00:10:57,441 --> 00:11:00,289
Some will wonder why this news
is being announced
185
00:11:00,313 --> 00:11:02,009
over a holiday weekend.
186
00:11:02,033 --> 00:11:04,849
Cynics might conclude the
Police and Crime Commissioner
187
00:11:04,873 --> 00:11:08,609
would prefer his statement
isn't examined too closely.
188
00:11:08,633 --> 00:11:11,449
Perhaps Mr Sindwhani has learned
the secret to high office
189
00:11:11,473 --> 00:11:14,729
appears no longer to reside in
revealing the deepest truths,
190
00:11:14,753 --> 00:11:17,569
but in telling the most attractive lies.
191
00:11:17,593 --> 00:11:18,769
Gail Vella reporting...
192
00:11:18,793 --> 00:11:21,449
I had to cut that from
the broadcast version.
193
00:11:21,473 --> 00:11:24,569
This is unbroadcast material?
It would never have been released?
194
00:11:24,593 --> 00:11:26,409
Not in this form, no.
195
00:11:26,433 --> 00:11:29,892
She'd seen the success of a podcast
about police corruption
196
00:11:29,925 --> 00:11:32,525
surrounding the murder of a private
detective, Daniel Morgan.
197
00:11:32,580 --> 00:11:34,290
The material Gail couldn't get on air,
198
00:11:34,314 --> 00:11:36,609
she was funnelling
into a podcast serial of her own.
199
00:11:36,633 --> 00:11:38,249
Where can we access this podcast?
200
00:11:38,601 --> 00:11:40,889
It never got that far.
Gail must not have finished it.
201
00:11:40,913 --> 00:11:43,165
Do you know anything about
the content of this podcast?
202
00:11:43,189 --> 00:11:44,409
I know she was pursuing
203
00:11:44,433 --> 00:11:46,489
several senior police officers for
interview.
204
00:11:46,513 --> 00:11:47,929
She was digging much more deeply
205
00:11:47,953 --> 00:11:50,080
into why there'd been suppression
of police inquiries
206
00:11:50,120 --> 00:11:52,249
into the likes of Councillor Dale Roach.
207
00:11:52,273 --> 00:11:55,529
- Did she keep notes or recordings?
- Yeah. What journalist wouldn't?
208
00:11:56,014 --> 00:11:58,654
That's why I suggested Gail's
killer must have stolen them.
209
00:11:59,553 --> 00:12:02,889
Sorry, you disclosed this
to the original murder detectives?
210
00:12:02,913 --> 00:12:05,401
And they said there was no
grounds to suspect a burglary.
211
00:12:09,113 --> 00:12:10,289
This is the first we've heard
212
00:12:10,313 --> 00:12:12,449
of burglary being a factor
in Gail Vella's murder.
213
00:12:12,473 --> 00:12:14,769
Nor was there evidence of a
disturbance inside the property.
214
00:12:14,793 --> 00:12:15,889
The killer stole something.
215
00:12:15,913 --> 00:12:18,169
He knew exactly what he was looking
for and where to find it.
216
00:12:18,193 --> 00:12:20,266
And I'm assuming the original
investigation
217
00:12:20,290 --> 00:12:22,446
seized all of Gail
Vella's electronic devices.
218
00:12:22,470 --> 00:12:25,329
Yes, sir. They were after messages
or threats from an obsessed fan.
219
00:12:25,353 --> 00:12:27,306
Yes, but they weren't looking
at her journalism.
220
00:12:27,351 --> 00:12:28,969
If your theory is right, Steve,
221
00:12:28,993 --> 00:12:31,129
these files could point a finger
at someone
222
00:12:31,153 --> 00:12:33,409
who may have had a motive
to order her murder.
223
00:12:33,433 --> 00:12:36,049
I think those devices
need to be reanalysed.
224
00:12:36,073 --> 00:12:39,089
We'll have to find a way to do that
without alerting Davidson.
225
00:12:39,331 --> 00:12:40,747
Right...
226
00:12:40,834 --> 00:12:42,074
Thank you, Chloe.
227
00:12:43,523 --> 00:12:44,563
Sir.
228
00:12:53,153 --> 00:12:55,169
You're worried about what might
happen to Kate
229
00:12:55,193 --> 00:12:57,249
when Davidson finds
out we're investigating her?
230
00:12:57,273 --> 00:12:58,513
- Yes, sir.
- I get it, son,
231
00:12:58,537 --> 00:13:00,233
I really do. I get it, but...
232
00:13:01,433 --> 00:13:03,134
...Kate has made her bed.
233
00:13:03,165 --> 00:13:06,641
Now she's got to lie in it,
and we have a job to do.
234
00:13:07,990 --> 00:13:09,006
Sir.
235
00:13:09,162 --> 00:13:11,002
Wait, Steve.
236
00:13:15,393 --> 00:13:17,601
I've been giving the situation some
thought,
237
00:13:18,913 --> 00:13:21,129
and loyalty works both ways.
238
00:13:21,153 --> 00:13:23,516
I'm going to have to confirm it with HR,
239
00:13:23,540 --> 00:13:28,561
but ahead of the formal promotion
process, I am making you a temp DI.
240
00:13:30,793 --> 00:13:34,009
Congratulations, son, you've earned it.
241
00:13:34,627 --> 00:13:36,201
Thank you, sir.
242
00:14:17,024 --> 00:14:18,264
All right?
243
00:14:19,260 --> 00:14:20,580
All right.
244
00:14:21,868 --> 00:14:23,324
Just like old times.
245
00:14:23,441 --> 00:14:24,549
Yeah.
246
00:14:25,619 --> 00:14:27,729
We're moving forward with Vella.
247
00:14:27,961 --> 00:14:29,529
Moving forward how?
248
00:14:29,553 --> 00:14:31,529
At some point, we're going to hit
the Hill.
249
00:14:31,553 --> 00:14:33,169
Shit. For Christ's sake, Steve...
250
00:14:33,193 --> 00:14:34,569
This is why I got you here.
251
00:14:34,841 --> 00:14:37,049
I can't leave a digital trail,
but I wanted you to know.
252
00:14:37,073 --> 00:14:38,729
Well, why are you involving me?
253
00:14:38,961 --> 00:14:40,689
We've got some leads, but...
254
00:14:40,713 --> 00:14:44,462
Look, Kate, if you can feed me the
inside track on Davidson,
255
00:14:44,494 --> 00:14:46,169
maybe we won't need to show our hand
just yet.
256
00:14:46,193 --> 00:14:48,889
For Christ's sake, Steve, she's my
gaffer. You want me to rat on her?
257
00:14:48,913 --> 00:14:50,298
You're no rat if she's bent.
258
00:14:50,322 --> 00:14:52,289
- What am I, then?
- An honest copper.
259
00:14:52,313 --> 00:14:54,470
Yeah, I'm sure everyone will
see it like that.
260
00:14:54,511 --> 00:14:56,409
Look, Kate, it goes beyond Davidson.
261
00:14:56,761 --> 00:14:58,609
If organised crime ordered
the murder of Gail Vella,
262
00:14:58,633 --> 00:15:00,969
they're protecting Carl Banks
and framing Terry Boyle.
263
00:15:00,993 --> 00:15:03,689
Yeah, we get it. We're working on it.
264
00:15:03,713 --> 00:15:05,129
Look, I just need to know when.
265
00:15:05,153 --> 00:15:08,849
When is it going to come out that
AC-12 are investigating Davidson?
266
00:15:09,281 --> 00:15:11,089
I've already said too much.
267
00:15:11,113 --> 00:15:12,441
Yeah, likewise.
268
00:15:16,033 --> 00:15:18,121
You always choose a right shithole.
269
00:15:39,153 --> 00:15:41,889
- All right, Chris?
- Pathologist's in there now, boss.
270
00:15:41,913 --> 00:15:43,569
Knife wound to the throat.
271
00:15:43,593 --> 00:15:45,341
Looks like the body's
been here for a few days.
272
00:15:45,365 --> 00:15:47,209
Witnesses?
273
00:15:47,233 --> 00:15:51,209
It's a long-derelict site with no
security presence and no CCTV.
274
00:15:51,233 --> 00:15:53,769
Highly unlikely we'll harvest
any surveillance images.
275
00:15:53,793 --> 00:15:54,873
Any ID yet?
276
00:15:55,913 --> 00:15:58,713
Matches the appearance of Carl Banks.
277
00:16:04,313 --> 00:16:05,329
Shit.
278
00:16:05,353 --> 00:16:06,889
Good news, ma'am.
279
00:16:06,913 --> 00:16:08,473
The search team's found a knife.
280
00:16:10,601 --> 00:16:12,729
No apparent blood deposits
on the ground,
281
00:16:12,753 --> 00:16:14,129
but best test for them anyway.
282
00:16:14,153 --> 00:16:17,233
The killer didn't put much effort
into evidence disposal.
283
00:16:20,153 --> 00:16:23,560
DI Fleming,
Farida's replacement, PC Ryan...
284
00:16:23,584 --> 00:16:24,915
Pilkington, ma'am.
285
00:16:24,947 --> 00:16:26,289
Pleased to meet you, ma'am.
286
00:16:26,521 --> 00:16:29,489
Don't knock it, Kate.
We're overdue a lucky break.
287
00:16:29,513 --> 00:16:31,241
- Thanks, Ryan.
- Ma'am.
288
00:16:40,433 --> 00:16:43,769
Fingerprints are only a 90% match
due to early decomposition,
289
00:16:43,793 --> 00:16:46,249
but DNA's confirmed the body
is definitely Carl Banks.
290
00:16:46,273 --> 00:16:48,889
Sorry, ma'am, you asked to receive
the forensic report
291
00:16:48,913 --> 00:16:51,169
- as soon as it was in.
- Thanks, Ryan.
292
00:16:51,193 --> 00:16:53,735
You couldn't do us a cuppa,
could you? I'm gasping.
293
00:16:53,759 --> 00:16:56,248
Yeah, no problem at all, ma'am.
DI Fleming, DS Lomax?
294
00:16:56,272 --> 00:16:57,297
I'm fine, ta.
295
00:16:57,330 --> 00:16:59,529
Me too. But... this has been bugging me.
296
00:16:59,553 --> 00:17:01,609
Have we worked together before?
297
00:17:02,289 --> 00:17:04,658
Did you come and give a talk
at the training college, ma'am?
298
00:17:04,683 --> 00:17:06,010
No.
299
00:17:06,878 --> 00:17:09,078
- Thanks, Ryan.
- Ma'am.
300
00:17:10,431 --> 00:17:13,016
- For Christ's sake.
- Boss?
301
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,489
Fingerprints on the knife found
close to Carl Banks's body
302
00:17:16,513 --> 00:17:19,241
match Alastair Oldroyd, the CHIS.
303
00:17:20,073 --> 00:17:22,769
The pathologist confirmed Banks
died a couple of days earlier.
304
00:17:22,793 --> 00:17:25,241
The timeline works for Oldroyd
to have killed Banks.
305
00:17:26,629 --> 00:17:29,349
Sarge? I mean, sir?
306
00:17:36,393 --> 00:17:37,873
Shit. Sir.
307
00:17:39,273 --> 00:17:41,889
- What have you got?
- Sir, it's just come up on the Box.
308
00:17:41,913 --> 00:17:44,129
Carl Banks has been found dead.
309
00:17:44,153 --> 00:17:45,849
No more beating about the bush.
310
00:17:45,873 --> 00:17:48,079
- We raid Operation Lighthouse.
- Sir.
311
00:17:48,841 --> 00:17:50,753
I'll put together a team and transport.
312
00:17:59,713 --> 00:18:01,283
AC-12, DI Arnott.
313
00:18:01,324 --> 00:18:03,248
It's your lawful duty to
comply with my officers.
314
00:18:03,272 --> 00:18:04,361
Sir.
315
00:18:33,313 --> 00:18:35,197
DI Arnott, AC-12.
316
00:18:35,231 --> 00:18:38,689
We have the lawful authority to
investigate Operation Lighthouse.
317
00:18:38,713 --> 00:18:40,489
All officers, go to your desks.
318
00:18:40,513 --> 00:18:43,052
You'll each be questioned by an
AC-12 caseworker.
319
00:18:43,095 --> 00:18:44,376
You'll each be obliged
320
00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:47,049
to surrender all materials relating
to Operation Lighthouse
321
00:18:47,073 --> 00:18:48,689
to said caseworkers.
322
00:18:48,713 --> 00:18:51,889
Failure to comply will be a breach
of your duties and responsibilities
323
00:18:51,913 --> 00:18:53,649
under police conduct regulations
324
00:18:53,673 --> 00:18:56,318
and may lead to a misconduct
charge under said regulations.
325
00:18:56,342 --> 00:18:57,889
Nobody move.
326
00:18:57,913 --> 00:19:00,209
What the hell's all this about?
On whose authority?
327
00:19:00,233 --> 00:19:02,849
We have a signed authority
from Deputy Chief Constable Wise
328
00:19:02,873 --> 00:19:06,281
to seize all MIT files relating
to the murder of Gail Vella.
329
00:19:06,753 --> 00:19:09,118
- Let me see that.
- Sir, as you know,
330
00:19:09,142 --> 00:19:12,089
wilful obstruction of my officers
executing their lawful duty
331
00:19:12,113 --> 00:19:13,409
is a criminal offence.
332
00:19:13,433 --> 00:19:17,728
DCI Davidson. I notified the DCC
of my concerns
333
00:19:17,763 --> 00:19:20,689
regarding leaking
of confidential police information
334
00:19:20,713 --> 00:19:23,345
such as the operation to arrest
Ross Turner
335
00:19:23,369 --> 00:19:26,769
and the identity of the CHIS who
gave us Turner's name and address.
336
00:19:26,793 --> 00:19:29,298
The DCC agreed to a moratorium
337
00:19:29,322 --> 00:19:32,089
on further distribution
of Operation Lighthouse files
338
00:19:32,113 --> 00:19:35,569
until said information leakage
has been fully investigated.
339
00:19:35,593 --> 00:19:37,169
We'd be the ones to investigate it.
340
00:19:37,193 --> 00:19:39,889
Nonetheless, you'll see the DCC's
authorised me
341
00:19:39,913 --> 00:19:42,049
to withhold Operation Lighthouse files.
342
00:19:42,073 --> 00:19:43,929
Why didn't the DCC inform us about this?
343
00:19:43,953 --> 00:19:46,809
To prevent information leakage,
naturally.
344
00:19:46,833 --> 00:19:49,649
No, you did it to make mugs of AC-12.
345
00:19:49,673 --> 00:19:51,769
That was just an added bonus.
346
00:19:56,353 --> 00:19:57,521
Priceless!
347
00:19:58,793 --> 00:20:01,033
- Let's go.
- Right, everyone, let's go.
348
00:20:12,553 --> 00:20:14,681
Cheers, Kate. Nice one.
349
00:20:28,113 --> 00:20:30,009
How did Davidson know?
350
00:20:30,033 --> 00:20:31,273
Give me a minute.
351
00:20:44,633 --> 00:20:46,289
Steve, I'm sorry.
352
00:20:46,313 --> 00:20:47,889
I trusted you, mate.
353
00:20:47,913 --> 00:20:50,409
Look, I'm damned if I do,
I'm damned if I don't.
354
00:20:50,433 --> 00:20:51,913
What was I supposed to do?
355
00:21:07,953 --> 00:21:10,969
Andrea advised me this is
about Operation Lighthouse.
356
00:21:10,993 --> 00:21:12,689
I need to be in the loop.
357
00:21:12,713 --> 00:21:16,369
Well, I am here because AC-12's
lawful investigation
358
00:21:16,393 --> 00:21:18,929
has been unjustly obstructed.
359
00:21:18,953 --> 00:21:21,409
Operation Lighthouse
has had its setbacks, of course,
360
00:21:21,433 --> 00:21:24,209
but your involvement needs to be
correctly handled
361
00:21:24,233 --> 00:21:26,529
so the public
don't leap to the wrong conclusion.
362
00:21:27,241 --> 00:21:30,129
I briefed Andrea on the required optics.
363
00:21:30,153 --> 00:21:33,753
This isn't an inquiry
into misconduct/corruption.
364
00:21:34,993 --> 00:21:38,369
Well, the investigation
usually precedes the findings.
365
00:21:38,393 --> 00:21:40,329
Clearly, we're all frustrated
366
00:21:40,353 --> 00:21:43,974
Gail Vella's murderer hasn't
been brought to justice yet,
367
00:21:44,009 --> 00:21:47,289
so it makes sense to pitch AC-12's
involvement
368
00:21:47,313 --> 00:21:49,553
as a routine performance review.
369
00:21:51,553 --> 00:21:52,969
Officers of your rank
370
00:21:52,993 --> 00:21:56,289
normally appreciate politics
as much as policing.
371
00:21:56,313 --> 00:21:57,593
Yes.
372
00:21:58,513 --> 00:22:01,729
I'm interested in one thing
and one thing only,
373
00:22:02,096 --> 00:22:03,896
and that's bent coppers.
374
00:22:04,873 --> 00:22:06,769
I hope you'll cooperate, Superintendent.
375
00:22:07,441 --> 00:22:09,649
Now, apologies, if you'll excuse me,
376
00:22:09,673 --> 00:22:12,793
- I'm due to attend the Crime Executive.
- Sir.
377
00:22:15,993 --> 00:22:18,889
Unless there are any outstanding
issues, Ted,
378
00:22:18,913 --> 00:22:21,049
I'm prepared to reissue the authority
379
00:22:21,073 --> 00:22:24,353
for AC-12 to proceed with your
review of Operation Lighthouse.
380
00:22:25,593 --> 00:22:27,649
It appears my team have been delayed
381
00:22:27,673 --> 00:22:30,955
for nothing better than a PR
briefing, the result of which
382
00:22:30,983 --> 00:22:34,259
is that MIT officers are now aware
of our inquiry
383
00:22:34,301 --> 00:22:37,689
and may be concealing
evidence as we speak.
384
00:22:37,713 --> 00:22:39,821
No-one's concealing evidence, Ted.
385
00:22:39,845 --> 00:22:43,209
They're working their bollocks off
trying to find Gail Vella's killer.
386
00:22:43,718 --> 00:22:45,478
Ma'am.
387
00:22:51,961 --> 00:22:56,169
- How'd it go, sir?
- Well, we're back in business.
388
00:22:56,193 --> 00:22:57,689
Thank you, sir.
389
00:22:57,713 --> 00:23:01,049
So you make the mess and I tidy it up,
390
00:23:01,073 --> 00:23:02,513
is that how this goes?
391
00:23:03,993 --> 00:23:05,489
Well, you're not denying it,
392
00:23:05,513 --> 00:23:07,849
so it must have been Officer J
or DI Kate Fleming
393
00:23:07,873 --> 00:23:09,089
who blew the gaff.
394
00:23:09,113 --> 00:23:12,929
I reckon you'd only trust Kate with
this kind of information, yeah?
395
00:23:13,291 --> 00:23:15,392
Well, she's cooked her goose now.
396
00:23:15,900 --> 00:23:17,376
God help her
if she thinks she's going to get
397
00:23:17,413 --> 00:23:19,049
some kind of special treatment from me,
398
00:23:19,073 --> 00:23:22,329
because she's got another thing
coming. As for DCI Davidson,
399
00:23:22,353 --> 00:23:24,929
she must have had great fun
pulling this stroke,
400
00:23:25,877 --> 00:23:28,049
but she will be laughing
on the other side of her face
401
00:23:28,073 --> 00:23:29,681
when I'm finished with her.
402
00:23:30,071 --> 00:23:31,967
Serve her with a Reg 15.
403
00:23:32,273 --> 00:23:34,041
- Sir.
- Carry on.
404
00:24:15,793 --> 00:24:17,544
DC Bishop, AC-12.
405
00:24:17,580 --> 00:24:19,289
I'm sure you can all guess
what this is about.
406
00:24:19,313 --> 00:24:20,969
I need access to your computer.
407
00:24:20,993 --> 00:24:22,561
Could you stand up, please?
408
00:24:24,353 --> 00:24:26,313
Show me your files, please.
409
00:24:29,873 --> 00:24:31,409
Can I have your password, please?
410
00:24:31,433 --> 00:24:33,673
I need your login details.
411
00:24:37,313 --> 00:24:38,689
What is this document here?
412
00:24:38,713 --> 00:24:40,361
Here you go, sir.
413
00:24:45,113 --> 00:24:48,169
Ma'am, please find enclosed
a Regulation 15 notice
414
00:24:48,193 --> 00:24:50,769
requiring you to attend AC-12
for a formal interview
415
00:24:50,793 --> 00:24:52,873
within the next ten working days.
416
00:24:54,153 --> 00:24:56,009
A copy of this letter has been sent
417
00:24:56,033 --> 00:24:58,033
to your Police Federation
representative.
418
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,877
_
419
00:25:43,673 --> 00:25:45,881
- Steve.
- I was up on a case.
420
00:25:46,753 --> 00:25:48,576
I'm sorry, Steph, I should have called.
421
00:25:48,834 --> 00:25:50,641
No, no, it's fine. Come in.
422
00:25:56,753 --> 00:25:59,113
- Tea, isn't it?
- Yeah, ta.
423
00:26:01,641 --> 00:26:03,369
How are the girls?
424
00:26:03,393 --> 00:26:05,961
Gemma still doesn't get it, not really.
425
00:26:06,793 --> 00:26:08,969
I'm dreading her not
remembering her daddy.
426
00:26:08,993 --> 00:26:11,401
Well, these will help.
John won't be forgotten.
427
00:26:12,873 --> 00:26:15,449
Thanks for all you did at the time.
428
00:26:15,473 --> 00:26:16,873
You didn't have to.
429
00:26:18,593 --> 00:26:21,009
I'd like to think he'd have done
the same for me.
430
00:26:21,033 --> 00:26:23,073
He died in the line of duty.
431
00:26:24,996 --> 00:26:27,196
Shame the big bosses never saw
it that way.
432
00:26:28,113 --> 00:26:30,693
Sorry, I ought to know, milk and sugar?
433
00:26:30,717 --> 00:26:31,953
Just milk, please.
434
00:26:41,273 --> 00:26:43,169
It's good you were able
to keep the house.
435
00:26:43,193 --> 00:26:46,249
- I know you were worried.
- Tearing my hair out, more like.
436
00:26:46,273 --> 00:26:49,393
Fortunately,
there was John's life insurance.
437
00:26:51,553 --> 00:26:52,769
Nice TV.
438
00:26:53,761 --> 00:26:55,929
Champions League game's on later.
439
00:26:55,953 --> 00:26:59,089
- Not that you lot have got an interest.
- Next season.
440
00:26:59,113 --> 00:27:01,649
I didn't know you'd bother
with the sports channels.
441
00:27:01,673 --> 00:27:04,273
It all comes in the package.
Cheap as chips.
442
00:27:05,753 --> 00:27:07,641
Sorry, what am I like? Sit down.
443
00:27:12,154 --> 00:27:13,594
Steve?
444
00:27:16,273 --> 00:27:18,569
It's just a spasm. It'll pass.
445
00:27:18,593 --> 00:27:19,921
You sure?
446
00:27:23,273 --> 00:27:25,040
I've got some painkillers
in the car. I'll just...
447
00:27:25,064 --> 00:27:27,607
Don't move,
I'll get them. I'll get your car keys.
448
00:27:27,631 --> 00:27:29,161
Inside pocket.
449
00:28:14,713 --> 00:28:18,049
I can't believe the DCC caved so easily.
450
00:28:18,292 --> 00:28:19,852
Sorry, boss.
451
00:28:21,313 --> 00:28:22,809
Not your fault at all.
452
00:28:22,833 --> 00:28:24,609
Thanks for the heads-up.
453
00:28:24,633 --> 00:28:27,673
I know the kind of cases
that AC-12 are into, boss.
454
00:28:29,646 --> 00:28:31,801
Out of work, forget "Boss".
455
00:28:36,519 --> 00:28:37,839
You all right?
456
00:28:40,713 --> 00:28:42,401
This Reg 15...
457
00:28:43,873 --> 00:28:46,321
Yeah, I know how it must feel,
458
00:28:46,913 --> 00:28:49,433
but it's just the way AC-12 operate.
459
00:28:52,193 --> 00:28:54,889
The truth is, it's all getting
a bit tense.
460
00:28:55,697 --> 00:28:56,774
How does it make me look,
461
00:28:56,798 --> 00:29:00,001
investigating a guy with learning
difficulties?
462
00:29:00,473 --> 00:29:01,849
Straight up, Jo,
463
00:29:01,873 --> 00:29:04,073
do you think he could have killed Gail?
464
00:29:06,393 --> 00:29:08,649
You've been doing this job
long enough to realise
465
00:29:08,673 --> 00:29:10,369
we can never know for sure.
466
00:29:10,961 --> 00:29:14,401
We just gather the evidence,
do our best.
467
00:29:16,073 --> 00:29:19,473
Right now, my best
is nowhere near good enough.
468
00:29:20,913 --> 00:29:26,041
A young woman, could have been you
or me, Kate, her life cut short.
469
00:29:28,153 --> 00:29:29,929
And whoever did it's got away with it,
470
00:29:29,953 --> 00:29:31,433
and that's my fault.
471
00:29:33,953 --> 00:29:35,220
Do you fancy another?
472
00:29:35,283 --> 00:29:38,720
- Ladies?
- Two more, please.
473
00:29:38,744 --> 00:29:40,241
Can we get those?
474
00:29:48,753 --> 00:29:50,769
Have a good night, guys.
475
00:29:51,152 --> 00:29:52,712
Two more, please.
476
00:29:56,313 --> 00:29:57,809
I'm sorry, Kate.
477
00:29:58,161 --> 00:30:01,009
My self-pity's blown your chances.
478
00:30:01,033 --> 00:30:02,433
Nah, not really my type.
479
00:30:11,433 --> 00:30:12,809
You sure you're OK to drive?
480
00:30:12,833 --> 00:30:15,649
Yeah, sorry about all that earlier.
I'm fine.
481
00:30:15,673 --> 00:30:17,729
The last thing I meant was to put
you out.
482
00:30:17,753 --> 00:30:20,593
Get away, it's just nice to have
some grown-up company for a change.
483
00:30:23,793 --> 00:30:25,169
This a long job?
484
00:30:25,513 --> 00:30:26,953
The case you're up here on?
485
00:30:28,532 --> 00:30:30,068
Could be.
486
00:30:30,093 --> 00:30:32,733
If you're passing again, don't hesitate.
487
00:30:42,153 --> 00:30:44,129
Don't stay out, it's freezing.
488
00:30:44,153 --> 00:30:45,841
I've got to set the sat-nav
and everything.
489
00:30:46,953 --> 00:30:49,161
Night, Steve. Safe journey.
490
00:30:50,217 --> 00:30:51,497
Night.
491
00:31:01,993 --> 00:31:06,249
Thanks for coming out, Kate.
Sorry to unload my problems.
492
00:31:06,273 --> 00:31:09,393
No worries.
Glad I could be a sounding board.
493
00:31:10,593 --> 00:31:12,481
Well, this is me.
494
00:31:14,113 --> 00:31:17,273
It's Mark's turn to have Josh this
weekend if you're at a loose end.
495
00:31:19,193 --> 00:31:21,129
I'd need to check my diary.
496
00:31:21,357 --> 00:31:23,077
Yeah, no pressure.
497
00:31:32,353 --> 00:31:33,761
My diary's empty.
498
00:31:34,793 --> 00:31:37,329
I've just come out
of a long-term relationship.
499
00:31:37,353 --> 00:31:38,713
I, um...
500
00:31:44,790 --> 00:31:48,070
It would be nice to see
you at the weekend.
501
00:32:12,273 --> 00:32:14,649
Chloe, how's it going?
502
00:32:14,673 --> 00:32:17,089
Davidson gave us full cooperation,
so we've got the lot.
503
00:32:17,113 --> 00:32:20,009
We've recovered Vella's computers
that were seized after her murder.
504
00:32:20,033 --> 00:32:21,154
I thought you'd want to prioritise them.
505
00:32:21,178 --> 00:32:22,649
- Great. Hi, Amanda.
- Hi.
506
00:32:22,673 --> 00:32:25,249
The digital forensics team
have triaged the desktop computer,
507
00:32:25,273 --> 00:32:27,809
the laptop computer. The truth is,
they're remarkably clean.
508
00:32:27,833 --> 00:32:28,849
What do you mean?
509
00:32:28,873 --> 00:32:32,129
All applications still have store
settings, hardly any personal files.
510
00:32:32,153 --> 00:32:33,517
What, they were planted?
511
00:32:33,541 --> 00:32:36,129
Her killer replaced her actual
computers to cover up the burglary?
512
00:32:36,153 --> 00:32:39,049
I'll order the keyboards to be
swabbed and screens fingerprinted.
513
00:32:39,073 --> 00:32:41,173
That way, we can see if
Gail ever even touched them.
514
00:32:41,197 --> 00:32:42,689
Good call. So you've
found nothing at all?
515
00:32:42,719 --> 00:32:44,969
The only item of interest is
a tiny audio file.
516
00:32:44,993 --> 00:32:46,809
It appears only partially downloaded.
517
00:32:46,833 --> 00:32:49,009
- How would that happen?
- Going with your theory,
518
00:32:49,033 --> 00:32:51,729
it would be when the murderer
installed the replacement devices.
519
00:32:51,753 --> 00:32:54,369
They would have synced to her phone,
momentarily started to import
520
00:32:54,393 --> 00:32:56,369
the audio file before the murderer
broke the link.
521
00:32:56,393 --> 00:32:58,489
That would involve
him knowing her passwords.
522
00:32:58,961 --> 00:33:00,409
Sorry.
523
00:33:00,433 --> 00:33:02,849
Savile lied to cover them up.
524
00:33:02,873 --> 00:33:05,129
Some police officers not only
accepted those lies,
525
00:33:05,153 --> 00:33:06,709
they propagated them.
526
00:33:06,744 --> 00:33:09,113
We're losing our power
to challenge lies.
527
00:33:09,150 --> 00:33:11,153
There's some people you can't challenge.
528
00:33:14,833 --> 00:33:18,142
We're losing our power to challenge
lies.
529
00:33:18,166 --> 00:33:20,873
There's some people you can't challenge.
530
00:33:29,273 --> 00:33:32,921
Sorry, sir, I didn't think
you'd still be here.
531
00:33:33,753 --> 00:33:36,089
We need to find the rest
of Gail's recordings.
532
00:33:36,113 --> 00:33:38,073
Yeah, Amanda said she's on it.
533
00:33:46,791 --> 00:33:50,601
Do you mind me asking, sir,
but why have these been put up?
534
00:33:51,793 --> 00:33:54,489
The gaffer's never going to give it up,
535
00:33:54,513 --> 00:33:57,209
not as long as he still runs this place.
536
00:33:57,233 --> 00:33:58,889
And what about you?
537
00:33:58,913 --> 00:34:00,089
What about me?
538
00:34:00,113 --> 00:34:04,073
Well, do you still believe there's
a fourth man out there, H?
539
00:34:07,873 --> 00:34:09,353
I've moved on.
540
00:34:36,721 --> 00:34:38,281
That's us now.
541
00:34:57,791 --> 00:35:00,048
Anti-Corruption Unit 12 interview
542
00:35:00,072 --> 00:35:02,287
of Detective Chief Inspector
Joanne Davidson
543
00:35:02,311 --> 00:35:04,666
in the presence of her Police
Federation representative,
544
00:35:04,705 --> 00:35:08,247
DCI John Rix, by Superintendent
Hastings,
545
00:35:08,271 --> 00:35:11,351
Detective Inspector Arnott
and Detective Constable Bishop.
546
00:35:12,551 --> 00:35:15,447
Ma'am, this interview relates
to Operation Lighthouse,
547
00:35:15,471 --> 00:35:20,032
the inquiry into the murder of Gail
Vella on September 10th, 2019,
548
00:35:20,056 --> 00:35:22,282
on which you've been senior
investigating officer
549
00:35:22,306 --> 00:35:24,847
since 6th October of that same year.
550
00:35:24,871 --> 00:35:26,643
Document six in your folders.
551
00:35:26,681 --> 00:35:28,947
Document six is a copy of
an incident report
552
00:35:28,971 --> 00:35:30,689
lawfully seized by AC-12
553
00:35:30,722 --> 00:35:32,987
from the offices of the murder
investigation team
554
00:35:33,011 --> 00:35:36,627
located at Hillside Lane Police
Station on 4th November.
555
00:35:36,651 --> 00:35:38,787
Said incident report describes events
556
00:35:38,811 --> 00:35:40,507
on the morning of 27th October,
557
00:35:40,531 --> 00:35:43,347
specifically the diversion and delay
of an operation
558
00:35:43,371 --> 00:35:45,907
to arrest a suspect
in the murder of Gail Vella
559
00:35:45,931 --> 00:35:47,507
in order to attend an armed robbery
560
00:35:47,531 --> 00:35:50,547
taking place at Hickey's Bookmakers,
Verlaine Road.
561
00:35:50,571 --> 00:35:52,827
On screen, images 11 to 14.
562
00:35:52,851 --> 00:35:56,891
Images 11 to 14 show street views
of said location.
563
00:35:58,131 --> 00:36:00,347
DCI Davidson, can you kindly
explain your actions
564
00:36:00,371 --> 00:36:04,921
on the morning of October 27th
in relation to this armed robbery?
565
00:36:06,601 --> 00:36:10,907
En route to arrest the suspect,
I observed a suspicious vehicle.
566
00:36:10,931 --> 00:36:13,747
Further inquiries detected
an armed robbery in progress.
567
00:36:13,771 --> 00:36:16,027
I ordered my officers to intervene.
568
00:36:16,051 --> 00:36:19,067
DCI Davidson's actions prevented
a serious and immediate threat
569
00:36:19,091 --> 00:36:20,696
to members of the public.
570
00:36:20,949 --> 00:36:22,416
Commendable.
571
00:36:22,441 --> 00:36:25,747
- DI Arnott.
- Image 14 on screen.
572
00:36:26,401 --> 00:36:29,867
Image 14 shows the line of sight
from the route of the MIT convoy
573
00:36:29,891 --> 00:36:32,627
to the location of the
suspicious vehicle.
574
00:36:32,651 --> 00:36:34,627
Given you were a front-facing passenger,
575
00:36:34,651 --> 00:36:35,827
it was a narrow line of sight.
576
00:36:35,851 --> 00:36:38,147
Plus, you were going like the clappers.
577
00:36:38,761 --> 00:36:41,572
Nonetheless, I did see the vehicle
and, as a result,
578
00:36:41,615 --> 00:36:45,707
numerous members of the public
were saved from a terrifying ordeal.
579
00:36:46,082 --> 00:36:47,122
Oh.
580
00:36:47,771 --> 00:36:49,867
And what was it about this vehicle?
581
00:36:50,478 --> 00:36:51,513
Sir?
582
00:36:51,537 --> 00:36:54,147
I mean, it's just an ordinary
van parked in an ordinary street.
583
00:36:54,171 --> 00:36:56,187
Why give it the time of day?
584
00:36:56,211 --> 00:36:59,187
A registration check proved suspicious.
585
00:36:59,211 --> 00:37:03,411
Yes, but you only found that out
after you stopped to investigate.
586
00:37:05,531 --> 00:37:08,987
It was an idling MPV parked
adjacent to a bookmakers.
587
00:37:09,011 --> 00:37:10,907
The driver wasn't reading a newspaper
588
00:37:10,931 --> 00:37:12,747
or messing about on his phone.
589
00:37:12,771 --> 00:37:14,787
His eyes were fixed on the bookies.
590
00:37:14,811 --> 00:37:17,987
- He was alert for a quick getaway.
- Oh.
591
00:37:18,011 --> 00:37:21,627
And you deduced all that
in the fraction of a second?
592
00:37:21,651 --> 00:37:23,987
Call it a police officer's instinct.
593
00:37:24,011 --> 00:37:27,525
Oh, yes, we all get those from
time to time, DCI Davidson.
594
00:37:27,554 --> 00:37:29,267
I might be getting one right now.
595
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:31,616
DC Bishop.
596
00:37:31,641 --> 00:37:35,415
We've examined MIT records in
relation to the armed robbery.
597
00:37:35,439 --> 00:37:38,181
Document 12 in your folders
598
00:37:38,220 --> 00:37:40,587
and image 20 on screen.
599
00:37:41,001 --> 00:37:43,345
Image 20 shows the men arrested
600
00:37:43,388 --> 00:37:45,587
in the act of conducting an armed
robbery
601
00:37:45,611 --> 00:37:48,467
of Hickey's Bookmakers on October 27th.
602
00:37:48,491 --> 00:37:51,744
None of these men has a history
of serious or violent crime.
603
00:37:51,795 --> 00:37:53,827
The robbery took place early
in the morning,
604
00:37:53,851 --> 00:37:55,747
when takings would be at their lowest.
605
00:37:55,771 --> 00:37:58,491
So what would you deduce
from these facts, DCI Davidson?
606
00:37:59,731 --> 00:38:01,467
A group of amateur criminals
607
00:38:01,491 --> 00:38:04,227
attempted an armed robbery
in an amateur fashion.
608
00:38:05,041 --> 00:38:06,787
According to Murder Investigation
Team files
609
00:38:06,811 --> 00:38:09,227
lawfully seized on 4th November,
610
00:38:09,251 --> 00:38:12,227
attending the armed robbery
on the morning of 27th October
611
00:38:12,251 --> 00:38:15,027
caused a delay of two hours and 25
minutes to the operation planned
612
00:38:15,051 --> 00:38:18,063
to arrest a suspect using the alias
Ross Turner,
613
00:38:18,087 --> 00:38:21,332
believed to reside at Flat 4F,
Beechwood House, Moss Heath.
614
00:38:21,361 --> 00:38:23,867
This delay was out of
DCI Davidson's control.
615
00:38:23,891 --> 00:38:25,947
One of the armed robbers was shot dead
616
00:38:25,971 --> 00:38:27,947
by an authorised firearms officer.
617
00:38:27,971 --> 00:38:31,147
This necessitated a forensic
deployment and replacement AFOs.
618
00:38:31,171 --> 00:38:34,627
We also understand that an authority
for directed surveillance
619
00:38:34,651 --> 00:38:37,227
applied to Beechwood House.
The required authority
620
00:38:37,251 --> 00:38:39,227
should have been for intrusive
surveillance.
621
00:38:39,251 --> 00:38:41,187
As a result, while the matter
was resolved,
622
00:38:41,211 --> 00:38:44,587
surveillance was absent for a period
of three hours and 35 minutes.
623
00:38:44,611 --> 00:38:46,867
It needed to be resolved.
624
00:38:46,891 --> 00:38:49,107
Any evidence captured
during the wrong authority
625
00:38:49,131 --> 00:38:50,623
would have been inadmissible.
626
00:38:50,647 --> 00:38:52,071
Well,
maybe it would have been a good idea
627
00:38:52,095 --> 00:38:55,091
to get the right authority in
the first place, wouldn't you say?
628
00:38:56,331 --> 00:38:58,987
The error in assigning the
wrong surveillance authority
629
00:38:59,011 --> 00:39:01,611
was committed by a senior officer.
630
00:39:03,291 --> 00:39:04,891
That isn't in the file.
631
00:39:05,971 --> 00:39:08,091
I chose not to embarrass him.
632
00:39:09,251 --> 00:39:13,158
Look, DCI Davidson, we are charged here
633
00:39:13,209 --> 00:39:15,201
with investigating serious crimes,
634
00:39:15,244 --> 00:39:18,587
not least the murder of a young
woman in the prime of her life.
635
00:39:19,541 --> 00:39:23,707
And I expect all policemen and women
to uphold their duty to the public
636
00:39:23,731 --> 00:39:28,667
above any misguided loyalty they may
have to their fellow officers.
637
00:39:28,691 --> 00:39:31,051
Now, who was the senior officer?
638
00:39:33,251 --> 00:39:34,731
No comment, sir.
639
00:39:36,931 --> 00:39:40,547
DI Arnott, will you bookmark
that for the DIR?
640
00:39:40,813 --> 00:39:42,669
Failure to comply.
641
00:39:42,896 --> 00:39:44,216
Sir.
642
00:39:49,411 --> 00:39:50,947
DC Bishop.
643
00:39:51,713 --> 00:39:53,489
Image 29 on screen.
644
00:39:53,513 --> 00:39:56,289
Please refer to document 15
in your folders,
645
00:39:56,313 --> 00:40:00,330
a copy of an arrest report lawfully
seized on 4th of November.
646
00:40:00,363 --> 00:40:04,376
Said arrest report describes
the arrest on 27th October
647
00:40:04,400 --> 00:40:06,809
at Flat 4F Beechwood House
648
00:40:06,833 --> 00:40:09,353
of a person later identified
as Terry Boyle,
649
00:40:09,404 --> 00:40:11,431
shown on the right in image 29.
650
00:40:11,457 --> 00:40:13,087
Also detected at the property
651
00:40:13,127 --> 00:40:15,892
were fingerprints and DNA deposits
matching Carl Banks,
652
00:40:15,929 --> 00:40:18,486
shown on the left in image 29.
653
00:40:18,510 --> 00:40:21,046
Let's start with Terry Boyle.
654
00:40:21,070 --> 00:40:24,166
According to files lawfully seized
on November 4th,
655
00:40:24,190 --> 00:40:25,886
a covert human intelligence source
656
00:40:25,910 --> 00:40:27,846
submitted information to his handler,
657
00:40:27,870 --> 00:40:31,126
which was communicated to the Murder
Investigation Team via phone call
658
00:40:31,150 --> 00:40:34,846
at 23.21 on 26th October.
659
00:40:34,870 --> 00:40:37,966
The CHIS claimed a person
using the name Ross Turner
660
00:40:37,990 --> 00:40:40,926
had confessed to the murder
of Gail Vella.
661
00:40:40,950 --> 00:40:42,900
Terry Boyle's semen was detected
662
00:40:42,947 --> 00:40:45,686
on images of Gail Vella found
in his permanent residence,
663
00:40:45,710 --> 00:40:48,606
which is located a short
distance from Gail Vella's home.
664
00:40:48,630 --> 00:40:50,126
Also detected at the property
665
00:40:50,150 --> 00:40:52,766
were chemical traces of heroin
and cocaine,
666
00:40:52,790 --> 00:40:56,566
and on an item of outer clothing
particles of gunshot residue.
667
00:40:56,590 --> 00:40:59,046
Incriminating evidence.
668
00:40:59,070 --> 00:41:01,806
Gail Vella's Peugeot 108
was intercepted.
669
00:41:01,830 --> 00:41:03,606
As Miss Vella got out of the vehicle,
670
00:41:03,630 --> 00:41:05,286
she was murdered with a single gunshot
671
00:41:05,310 --> 00:41:07,046
carried out using a hard contact method
672
00:41:07,070 --> 00:41:08,646
in which the muzzle of the pistol
673
00:41:08,670 --> 00:41:10,966
was forced against the back
of Miss Vella's head.
674
00:41:10,990 --> 00:41:13,326
Now, this technique confines
noise and gunshot powder.
675
00:41:13,350 --> 00:41:16,446
The murderer successfully evaded
all neighbourhood security cameras.
676
00:41:16,761 --> 00:41:19,006
These findings strongly suggest
a contract killing
677
00:41:19,030 --> 00:41:21,161
of the type ordered by organised crime.
678
00:41:21,790 --> 00:41:23,846
Terry Boyle has no criminal record,
679
00:41:24,241 --> 00:41:25,886
no known association with organised
crime,
680
00:41:25,910 --> 00:41:28,686
and suffers from learning
difficulties which raise doubts
681
00:41:28,710 --> 00:41:32,206
regarding his capacity to commit
a cold-blooded assassination.
682
00:41:33,081 --> 00:41:35,046
The finding of images of Gail Vella
683
00:41:35,070 --> 00:41:38,006
suggested Boyle was an obsessed fan.
684
00:41:38,030 --> 00:41:41,206
While the hard contact technique
is associated with contract killing,
685
00:41:41,230 --> 00:41:43,006
it's not exclusive.
686
00:41:43,030 --> 00:41:46,166
There's no physical reason
an amateur couldn't do the same.
687
00:41:46,190 --> 00:41:49,366
The particles of gunshot residue
also link Boyle to the crime.
688
00:41:49,390 --> 00:41:51,406
They're below the threshold
amount you'd expect
689
00:41:51,430 --> 00:41:52,846
if Boyle had been holding the gun.
690
00:41:52,870 --> 00:41:56,046
Then add in the total lack of blood
spatter, there's not even a spot.
691
00:41:56,070 --> 00:41:57,966
That's correct, DI Arnott.
692
00:41:57,990 --> 00:42:00,486
We suspect the coat was
cross-contaminated
693
00:42:00,510 --> 00:42:02,900
from Boyle's hands or other clothing,
694
00:42:02,924 --> 00:42:05,606
clothing he could have disposed
of after the murder.
695
00:42:05,921 --> 00:42:08,286
That's speculation, ma'am.
You've got no evidence.
696
00:42:08,559 --> 00:42:11,439
Which is why I didn't charge him.
697
00:42:17,310 --> 00:42:20,001
Right, let's take a look at this
fellow Carl Banks.
698
00:42:20,990 --> 00:42:25,201
Image 30 on screen. Image 30 shows
Carl Banks's criminal record.
699
00:42:26,310 --> 00:42:28,646
Banks has a long association
with organised crime
700
00:42:28,670 --> 00:42:31,610
and a history of violence,
including firearms offences.
701
00:42:31,635 --> 00:42:34,526
He fits the profile of a
contract killer.
702
00:42:34,550 --> 00:42:38,086
To use your words, DI Arnott,
that's speculation.
703
00:42:38,561 --> 00:42:41,006
Also, there's the question of motive.
704
00:42:41,030 --> 00:42:44,326
Terry Boyle fits the profile
of an obsessed fan.
705
00:42:44,350 --> 00:42:46,206
We've never been able to identify
a motive
706
00:42:46,230 --> 00:42:48,286
for a contract killing
against Gail Vella.
707
00:42:48,310 --> 00:42:52,246
There's the possibility Vella
was working on an explosive story.
708
00:42:52,270 --> 00:42:54,686
Not only was she executed,
her research was stolen.
709
00:42:55,114 --> 00:42:58,486
A desktop and laptop computer
recovered from the property
710
00:42:58,510 --> 00:43:01,206
and recently re-examined bear no
fingerprints
711
00:43:01,230 --> 00:43:03,286
or DNA deposits matching Gail Vella.
712
00:43:03,310 --> 00:43:06,361
We believe these items were planted
to conceal a burglary.
713
00:43:08,230 --> 00:43:10,043
That's not in our files.
714
00:43:10,067 --> 00:43:11,966
No, but it's in ours.
715
00:43:11,990 --> 00:43:14,726
We're detectives, too, you know,
in case you hadn't noticed.
716
00:43:14,750 --> 00:43:18,486
DCI Davidson has led an exemplary
inquiry.
717
00:43:18,510 --> 00:43:20,166
If you've got new information,
718
00:43:20,190 --> 00:43:23,246
you should share it with
the Murder Investigation Team.
719
00:43:23,270 --> 00:43:24,486
According to your files,
720
00:43:24,510 --> 00:43:26,806
fingerprints and DNA deposits
matching Banks
721
00:43:26,830 --> 00:43:28,206
detected at Beechwood House
722
00:43:28,230 --> 00:43:30,766
were far more numerous
than those matching Boyle,
723
00:43:30,790 --> 00:43:33,086
suggesting Banks was
the primary resident,
724
00:43:33,110 --> 00:43:35,886
and also detected at Beechwood House
were signs of forced entry.
725
00:43:36,601 --> 00:43:40,046
Image 37 on screen is
from Carl Banks's postmortem.
726
00:43:40,070 --> 00:43:43,846
Document 21 in your folders
is a copy of the postmortem report.
727
00:43:43,870 --> 00:43:47,526
According to said postmortem
report, the pathologist concluded
728
00:43:47,550 --> 00:43:49,886
Carl Banks died from exsanguination
729
00:43:49,910 --> 00:43:52,046
due to a deep laceration to the neck,
730
00:43:52,070 --> 00:43:54,046
most likely inflicted by a knife.
731
00:43:54,070 --> 00:43:57,246
Also detected on Banks's body
were lacerations and bruising
732
00:43:57,270 --> 00:43:59,406
caused by heavy blunt trauma
to the head,
733
00:43:59,430 --> 00:44:01,166
facial lacerations and bruising,
734
00:44:01,190 --> 00:44:04,446
and lesions on both wrists
consistent with ligature restraints.
735
00:44:04,470 --> 00:44:07,970
All these injuries were caused some
time before his death,
736
00:44:07,994 --> 00:44:11,726
and time of death was put at
on or around 27th October.
737
00:44:11,750 --> 00:44:16,606
So, what we have here is a forced
entry into Carl Banks's flat,
738
00:44:16,630 --> 00:44:19,686
Banks beaten unconscious,
his hands tied and,
739
00:44:19,710 --> 00:44:21,646
some time later, his throat cut.
740
00:44:21,670 --> 00:44:24,686
None of this could have occurred
without his arrest being delayed
741
00:44:24,710 --> 00:44:26,366
and the surveillance being absent.
742
00:44:26,390 --> 00:44:29,246
Now, call me suspicious,
DCI Davidson, but it seems to me
743
00:44:29,270 --> 00:44:30,816
that somebody got wind
744
00:44:30,840 --> 00:44:33,246
that Banks was shooting his mouth
off about Vella's murder
745
00:44:33,270 --> 00:44:35,566
and they decided to murder him
to stop him talking.
746
00:44:35,590 --> 00:44:37,644
Not only that, but they knew
747
00:44:38,121 --> 00:44:40,486
that your team was on course
to arrest him.
748
00:44:40,510 --> 00:44:42,806
They knew the route you were taking.
749
00:44:42,830 --> 00:44:45,366
And to top it all, they knew
the surveillance was absent,
750
00:44:45,390 --> 00:44:47,606
so that meant they could walk in there,
751
00:44:47,630 --> 00:44:51,441
drag Banks out
and substitute him with Terry Boyle.
752
00:44:51,465 --> 00:44:53,926
And none of this,
none of this could have happened
753
00:44:53,950 --> 00:44:57,726
without you, and you alone, spotting
that van outside the bookies
754
00:44:57,750 --> 00:45:00,286
and deciding for some reason
I cannot fathom
755
00:45:00,310 --> 00:45:03,326
that it warranted investigation.
756
00:45:03,350 --> 00:45:06,761
Sir, all this is circumstantial.
757
00:45:07,150 --> 00:45:10,246
There's no evidence to support
anyone knowing any details
758
00:45:10,270 --> 00:45:11,966
of Operation Lighthouse.
759
00:45:11,990 --> 00:45:15,726
Evidence? We'll give you evidence.
DC Bishop.
760
00:45:15,750 --> 00:45:20,766
Image 41. Image 41 shows
item reference AR-6,
761
00:45:20,790 --> 00:45:24,606
a knife that was detected in
the vicinity of Carl Banks's body.
762
00:45:24,630 --> 00:45:26,446
Yeah, the killer, he didn't even bother
763
00:45:26,470 --> 00:45:28,046
to throw the knife into the canal.
764
00:45:28,070 --> 00:45:30,726
I mean, he left it lying around
for the search team to find.
765
00:45:30,750 --> 00:45:32,366
That was handy, wasn't it?
766
00:45:32,390 --> 00:45:34,286
Criminals make mistakes.
767
00:45:34,310 --> 00:45:35,830
That's how we catch them.
768
00:45:36,910 --> 00:45:42,161
I could say exactly the same,
DCI Davidson, exactly the same.
769
00:45:42,830 --> 00:45:45,286
Please refer to document 23
in your folders,
770
00:45:45,310 --> 00:45:48,726
a copy of a forensic report on item
reference AR-6.
771
00:45:49,041 --> 00:45:52,726
Blood detected on AR-6 was subjected
to DNA analysis.
772
00:45:52,750 --> 00:45:55,766
The DNA harvested from blood cells
on AR-6
773
00:45:55,790 --> 00:45:59,446
match with 99.9% probability
DNA from Carl Banks.
774
00:45:59,961 --> 00:46:02,726
Fingerprints on AR-6 match
with 99.9% probability
775
00:46:02,750 --> 00:46:05,806
fingerprints belonging
to Alastair Oldroyd.
776
00:46:05,830 --> 00:46:08,446
Alastair Oldroyd was the CHIS
who submitted the original Intel
777
00:46:08,470 --> 00:46:10,646
that Banks had confessed
to Vella's murder.
778
00:46:10,670 --> 00:46:13,486
So, for some reason, Alastair Oldroyd,
779
00:46:13,510 --> 00:46:17,421
no history of violent crime,
kills Banks.
780
00:46:17,460 --> 00:46:20,686
The evidence proves Oldroyd
handled the murder weapon.
781
00:46:20,710 --> 00:46:23,646
We suspect Banks had been
threatening Oldroyd.
782
00:46:23,670 --> 00:46:26,606
Are you trying to kid us that
Alastair Oldroyd went in there,
783
00:46:26,630 --> 00:46:28,806
beat Banks unconscious,
dragged him out of the fla...?
784
00:46:28,830 --> 00:46:31,030
He was ten stone wringing wet!
785
00:46:32,470 --> 00:46:36,806
And that's not the half of it,
not by a long chalk. DI Arnott.
786
00:46:37,366 --> 00:46:39,983
Document 31. According to your files,
787
00:46:40,036 --> 00:46:42,428
Oldroyd was found dead on 29th October
788
00:46:42,460 --> 00:46:45,286
from a fall from the derelict
Chapel Place Car Park.
789
00:46:45,310 --> 00:46:46,726
According to said files,
790
00:46:46,750 --> 00:46:49,366
due to the lack of witnesses
and security cameras,
791
00:46:49,390 --> 00:46:52,606
it's impossible to determine
if Oldroyd jumped or he was pushed.
792
00:46:53,081 --> 00:46:55,966
Our hypothesis is that Oldroyd
killed Banks,
793
00:46:55,990 --> 00:46:57,646
then committed suicide.
794
00:46:57,670 --> 00:46:59,406
Yeah, your hypothesis.
795
00:46:59,430 --> 00:47:00,886
So there we have it,
796
00:47:00,910 --> 00:47:04,287
a series of suspicious deaths
797
00:47:04,311 --> 00:47:08,166
that conveniently obliterate a trail
of evidence that might lead us
798
00:47:08,190 --> 00:47:11,446
to Gail Vella's actual murderer.
And in the meantime,
799
00:47:11,470 --> 00:47:15,566
you have that wee fella Terry Boyle
on police bail.
800
00:47:15,590 --> 00:47:18,761
You have failed to consider
the alternative,
801
00:47:19,430 --> 00:47:23,686
that Carl Banks murdered Gail Vella
on the orders of organised crime,
802
00:47:24,281 --> 00:47:28,326
that organised criminals murdered
Carl Banks for his silence,
803
00:47:28,801 --> 00:47:33,606
and that organised criminals framed
Alastair Oldroyd for Banks's murder
804
00:47:33,630 --> 00:47:37,646
and then staged Oldroyd's murder
to look like a suicide.
805
00:47:37,670 --> 00:47:39,846
Of course I've considered
alternatives...
806
00:47:39,870 --> 00:47:43,077
And none of this, none of this would
have happened
807
00:47:43,111 --> 00:47:45,842
without crucial information
on police activities
808
00:47:45,866 --> 00:47:48,510
being leaked to organised crime.
809
00:47:54,510 --> 00:47:55,670
I agree.
810
00:48:01,150 --> 00:48:02,326
Excuse me?
811
00:48:02,842 --> 00:48:04,482
I agree, sir.
812
00:48:06,270 --> 00:48:09,126
If your theory is correct, the only
way it could have worked
813
00:48:09,150 --> 00:48:11,406
would have been for a corrupt
officer from my team
814
00:48:11,430 --> 00:48:14,710
to have leaked
key information to organised crime.
815
00:48:16,990 --> 00:48:20,725
Well, as I'm sure you're aware of,
DCI Davidson,
816
00:48:20,749 --> 00:48:23,966
there's really only
one way we're going to find out.
817
00:48:23,990 --> 00:48:26,636
DCI Joanne Davidson,
you do not have to say anything,
818
00:48:26,671 --> 00:48:28,966
but it may harm your defence if
you do not mention when questioned
819
00:48:28,990 --> 00:48:31,086
something you later rely on in court.
820
00:48:31,110 --> 00:48:33,366
Anything you do say
may be used in evidence.
821
00:48:33,390 --> 00:48:36,726
DCI Davidson, did you leak information
822
00:48:36,750 --> 00:48:39,286
on your team's operations?
823
00:48:39,310 --> 00:48:41,446
No, sir, I did not.
824
00:48:41,470 --> 00:48:43,886
Do you know of anyone who did leak
information?
825
00:48:43,910 --> 00:48:46,446
No, sir, I do not.
826
00:48:46,470 --> 00:48:49,766
I'd ask if you've examined
my communications history.
827
00:48:49,790 --> 00:48:51,166
As per anti-corruption powers,
828
00:48:51,190 --> 00:48:53,526
we've been able to access
your work calls and e-mails.
829
00:48:53,550 --> 00:48:55,926
Any evidence that I've been
communicating with an OCG?
830
00:48:55,950 --> 00:48:57,863
No, ma'am. However, we all recognise
831
00:48:57,889 --> 00:48:59,926
that such communication is
typically carried out
832
00:48:59,950 --> 00:49:01,806
by unregistered so-called burner phones.
833
00:49:01,830 --> 00:49:03,886
I don't have a burner phone.
834
00:49:03,910 --> 00:49:06,206
Search my address, search my car.
835
00:49:06,230 --> 00:49:07,926
We will, ma'am.
836
00:49:08,457 --> 00:49:09,497
Fine.
837
00:49:12,030 --> 00:49:13,286
Are we done, sir?
838
00:49:13,310 --> 00:49:15,839
No, DCI Davidson, we are not done here.
839
00:49:15,874 --> 00:49:17,436
I'm not happy with some of the answers
840
00:49:17,460 --> 00:49:19,006
you've given in this interview today.
841
00:49:19,561 --> 00:49:22,526
Specifically, I'm concerned
about three unanswered questions.
842
00:49:22,550 --> 00:49:25,122
One, your possible collusion
843
00:49:25,147 --> 00:49:28,046
in diverting and delaying
Carl Banks's arrest.
844
00:49:28,070 --> 00:49:30,272
Two, your possible collusion
845
00:49:30,296 --> 00:49:33,926
in the failure to maintain constant
surveillance on Carl Banks's flat.
846
00:49:33,950 --> 00:49:37,646
And three, your possible
collusion in leaking information
847
00:49:37,670 --> 00:49:40,886
regarding items one and two.
848
00:49:40,910 --> 00:49:42,446
And so, therefore, DCI Davidson,
849
00:49:42,470 --> 00:49:45,686
I'm going to arrest you on suspicion
of perverting the course of justice.
850
00:49:45,710 --> 00:49:47,966
DCI Davidson strenuously denies the
allegations...
851
00:49:47,990 --> 00:49:49,446
You will be held here
852
00:49:49,470 --> 00:49:52,526
until we can find a suitable
police custody cell.
853
00:49:52,550 --> 00:49:56,430
Interview terminated at 11.22.
854
00:49:57,590 --> 00:49:58,990
Wait.
855
00:50:01,830 --> 00:50:05,766
An OCG needed time to plan the
robbery and the abduction of Banks.
856
00:50:06,201 --> 00:50:08,486
If I was SIO on this,
the first thing I'd want to know
857
00:50:08,510 --> 00:50:12,006
is who knew about Banks's confession
early enough.
858
00:50:12,030 --> 00:50:14,566
In order, that's the CHIS handler,
859
00:50:14,590 --> 00:50:18,566
then my officers who received
his call, PS Jatri and DS Lomax,
860
00:50:18,590 --> 00:50:22,710
then me, then my boss,
Detective Superintendent Buckells.
861
00:50:23,990 --> 00:50:27,561
If you're going to search my home,
I'd suggest you search theirs too.
862
00:50:46,990 --> 00:50:49,286
Do you understand how much work I've
got to do?
863
00:50:49,310 --> 00:50:51,246
When the Chief Super phones up
864
00:50:51,270 --> 00:50:53,137
and asks what's going on
with Lighthouse, right,
865
00:50:53,178 --> 00:50:55,190
- what am I going to tell him?
- Cheers, guys.
866
00:50:55,214 --> 00:50:56,756
Oh, about bloody time.
867
00:50:56,795 --> 00:50:58,452
You want to tell me what the hell's
going on?
868
00:50:58,488 --> 00:50:59,886
Detective Superintendent Buckells,
869
00:50:59,910 --> 00:51:02,686
in connection with our lawful
inquiry into Operation Lighthouse,
870
00:51:02,710 --> 00:51:05,606
we have received authority to
examine the communications activity
871
00:51:05,630 --> 00:51:08,342
- of certain named officers.
- Is this a piss-take or what?
872
00:51:08,394 --> 00:51:10,726
Sir, your work and personal
communications records
873
00:51:10,750 --> 00:51:12,206
are currently being scrutinised.
874
00:51:12,230 --> 00:51:14,926
Furthermore, we have received
authority to carry out a search
875
00:51:14,950 --> 00:51:17,550
of your vehicle and your home
under warrant powers.
876
00:51:19,830 --> 00:51:23,281
This is a joke, a total pigging joke.
877
00:51:24,550 --> 00:51:26,206
Well, yeah, I'll tell you what,
878
00:51:26,230 --> 00:51:28,926
when you find my stash of jazz mags,
feel free to knock one out.
879
00:51:29,769 --> 00:51:31,681
Thank you for your cooperation, sir.
880
00:51:47,950 --> 00:51:49,186
DI Arnott.
881
00:51:49,218 --> 00:51:52,061
It's Chloe, sir. Look, I'm at the search
882
00:51:52,085 --> 00:51:54,086
and the FIs have found
a cache of burner phones.
883
00:51:54,110 --> 00:51:55,726
Where? Davidson's?
884
00:51:55,750 --> 00:51:58,046
No, Officer J's.
885
00:51:58,507 --> 00:52:00,347
At Farida's.
886
00:52:00,950 --> 00:52:02,326
On my way.
887
00:52:10,470 --> 00:52:14,206
For the DIR, I'm showing PS Jatri
item reference CB-4.
888
00:52:14,230 --> 00:52:16,446
CB-4 is an unregistered mobile phone
889
00:52:16,470 --> 00:52:20,041
detected during a lawful search
of 29 Stalton Drive.
890
00:52:20,910 --> 00:52:22,926
Do you recognise this phone?
891
00:52:22,950 --> 00:52:23,990
No.
892
00:52:25,950 --> 00:52:29,319
For the DIR, I'm showing PS Jatri
image 76.
893
00:52:29,363 --> 00:52:32,225
Image 76 shows a cache of similar
devices
894
00:52:32,249 --> 00:52:35,916
detected during said lawful
search of 29 Stalton Drive.
895
00:52:35,941 --> 00:52:38,957
How do you account for these devices
being found hidden in your home?
896
00:52:38,981 --> 00:52:41,076
They've been put there!
I don't know anything about them.
897
00:52:41,100 --> 00:52:43,045
All these devices bear DNA deposits
898
00:52:43,069 --> 00:52:44,592
matching your elimination samples.
899
00:52:44,616 --> 00:52:47,428
I've never even seen them
before, let alone touched them!
900
00:52:47,452 --> 00:52:50,108
Examination of mobile phone CB-4
901
00:52:50,132 --> 00:52:54,268
reveals calls made in the early
hours of October 27th
902
00:52:54,292 --> 00:52:55,708
to an unidentified number.
903
00:52:56,161 --> 00:52:58,943
The timing of these calls
coincides exactly
904
00:52:58,967 --> 00:53:00,725
with the first intelligence report
905
00:53:00,749 --> 00:53:03,475
of a suspect claiming to have
murdered Gail Vella.
906
00:53:04,329 --> 00:53:06,272
Did you pass on confidential information
907
00:53:06,315 --> 00:53:08,084
on the operation to arrest this suspect?
908
00:53:08,109 --> 00:53:11,109
No, no! I had nothing to do with it!
909
00:53:13,484 --> 00:53:16,100
Farida Jatri, I have been
in consultation
910
00:53:16,124 --> 00:53:17,780
with the Crown Prosecutor
911
00:53:17,804 --> 00:53:20,483
and she has authorised me to charge
you with the following offences...
912
00:53:20,529 --> 00:53:23,124
- I'm being framed!
- Who's framing you?
913
00:53:24,657 --> 00:53:26,457
Who are you claiming is framing you?
914
00:53:30,924 --> 00:53:32,660
It's Jo, it's Jo Davidson.
915
00:53:32,684 --> 00:53:34,580
She planted those phones.
916
00:53:34,604 --> 00:53:36,844
You're claiming she broke
into your house?
917
00:53:38,204 --> 00:53:39,604
She didn't have to break in.
918
00:53:40,790 --> 00:53:42,150
What do you mean by that?
919
00:53:44,344 --> 00:53:45,761
She lived there with me.
920
00:53:48,184 --> 00:53:51,400
We searched DCI Davidson's home
address. It appeared lived in.
921
00:53:51,644 --> 00:53:54,620
Yeah, she has her own place, she
just keeps overnight stuff at mine.
922
00:53:54,644 --> 00:53:57,140
We found no items belonging
to another person.
923
00:53:57,164 --> 00:53:58,604
She moved out.
924
00:54:03,575 --> 00:54:07,775
Are you able to disclose to us
the nature of this relationship?
925
00:54:15,364 --> 00:54:16,764
She was lying to me.
926
00:54:17,999 --> 00:54:20,055
She lied and lied.
927
00:54:20,429 --> 00:54:22,445
That's the kind of person she is.
928
00:54:22,470 --> 00:54:24,630
None of you know what she's like.
929
00:54:34,284 --> 00:54:36,620
God give me strength,
I don't know who to believe.
930
00:54:36,644 --> 00:54:39,460
Well, now it seems possible Farida
made allegations about Davidson
931
00:54:39,484 --> 00:54:42,303
for personal reasons. But the stuff
we've found since then...
932
00:54:42,342 --> 00:54:45,260
Isn't enough. Not yet, anyway.
933
00:54:48,926 --> 00:54:50,686
Superintendent Hastings.
934
00:54:51,761 --> 00:54:53,961
Release DCI Davidson.
935
00:55:00,562 --> 00:55:02,602
Why won't anyone believe me?
936
00:55:18,432 --> 00:55:21,561
- Thanks, I'm fine from here.
- Ma'am.
937
00:55:38,000 --> 00:55:41,480
- Where to, ma'am?
- I need to pick up my car.
938
00:55:43,257 --> 00:55:45,593
I don't know if they've told you
about PS Jatri...
939
00:55:46,202 --> 00:55:48,722
That's what happens to a rat.
