1
00:00:03,047 --> 00:00:07,143
Operation Lighthouse, re
the unsolved murder of Gail Vella
2
00:00:07,167 --> 00:00:10,027
on September 10th, 2019.
3
00:00:11,527 --> 00:00:15,030
The name we've been given
is Ross Turner.
4
00:00:15,784 --> 00:00:17,184
Enter the property.
5
00:00:20,185 --> 00:00:24,105
5-3, DP for custody
transfer, bringing suspect out now.
6
00:00:26,003 --> 00:00:29,739
Interview of Terry Boyle by
Detective Chief Inspector Davidson.
7
00:00:30,021 --> 00:00:32,581
Mr Boyle, did you shoot Gail Vella?
8
00:00:32,608 --> 00:00:35,624
Synced & corrected by -robtor-
www.addic7ed.com
9
00:00:37,812 --> 00:00:39,028
Did anyone see that?
10
00:00:39,052 --> 00:00:41,572
Armed police! Drop your weapons!
Drop your weapons!
11
00:00:45,012 --> 00:00:47,508
A significant number of other
fingerprints
12
00:00:47,532 --> 00:00:51,002
match an individual identified by
the Police National Computer
13
00:00:51,045 --> 00:00:52,708
as Carl Banks.
14
00:00:52,732 --> 00:00:54,788
Carl Banks has an
extensive history of violence,
15
00:00:54,812 --> 00:00:56,252
including firearms offences.
16
00:00:59,052 --> 00:01:01,013
The person who made me see
that there was another way
17
00:01:01,038 --> 00:01:04,269
to be a useful member of society
was a police officer.
18
00:01:04,332 --> 00:01:06,930
He's the reason why I wanted
to become a police officer too.
19
00:01:08,332 --> 00:01:09,652
To help people.
20
00:01:11,172 --> 00:01:13,913
I can't share any details,
but we might be looking into Vella.
21
00:01:13,943 --> 00:01:15,967
Great, so either I'm accused of
being a traitor
22
00:01:15,991 --> 00:01:18,228
or I become one to avoid being accused.
23
00:01:18,812 --> 00:01:21,548
We really can't be sure about
the loyalty of some of these people.
24
00:01:21,572 --> 00:01:23,252
They could banjax the whole thing.
25
00:01:26,372 --> 00:01:27,748
I sent a photo to the handler.
26
00:01:27,772 --> 00:01:29,788
He confirms it's the CHIS.
27
00:01:29,812 --> 00:01:31,988
You're not suggesting
Davidson was involved?
28
00:01:32,012 --> 00:01:34,292
You have no idea what she's capable of.
29
00:01:36,652 --> 00:01:37,964
It's over.
30
00:01:37,988 --> 00:01:41,012
- How come I've never met your family?
- I don't have one.
31
00:01:42,932 --> 00:01:44,948
I've released him without charge.
32
00:01:44,972 --> 00:01:47,548
No way am I going after someone
like Terry Boyle
33
00:01:47,572 --> 00:01:49,070
because he's the easy way out.
34
00:01:49,772 --> 00:01:51,068
Is everything OK?
35
00:01:51,583 --> 00:01:53,670
- I should, um...
- Yeah.
36
00:02:14,701 --> 00:02:15,957
Good morning.
37
00:02:15,982 --> 00:02:17,022
Sir.
38
00:02:19,012 --> 00:02:21,110
Thank you, as you were, as you were.
39
00:02:21,612 --> 00:02:26,748
I have authorised an official AC-12
inquiry into Operation Lighthouse.
40
00:02:26,772 --> 00:02:31,868
Gail Vella's murder is this force's
highest-profile investigation.
41
00:02:31,892 --> 00:02:33,348
It will be our job to detect
42
00:02:33,372 --> 00:02:36,188
whether police misconduct
and/or corruption
43
00:02:36,212 --> 00:02:39,372
has contributed to this murder
remaining unsolved.
44
00:02:40,433 --> 00:02:42,350
- DS Arnott.
- Sir.
45
00:02:43,997 --> 00:02:48,573
SIO on Lighthouse is Detective
Chief Inspector Joanne Davidson.
46
00:02:48,598 --> 00:02:52,454
No MIT officers are aware AC-12
is scrutinising Lighthouse.
47
00:02:52,479 --> 00:02:55,015
All information we've harvested
so far has been acquired
48
00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,230
from a source on the Hill
known as Officer J.
49
00:03:04,285 --> 00:03:05,621
...to our inquiry.
50
00:03:05,732 --> 00:03:09,308
The CHIS's name
was Alastair Oldroyd, age 22.
51
00:03:09,332 --> 00:03:12,308
Oldroyd was in a pub on the night
of October 26th
52
00:03:12,332 --> 00:03:14,631
and the person calling himself
Ross Turner
53
00:03:14,655 --> 00:03:17,108
gave Oldroyd homophobic abuse.
54
00:03:17,132 --> 00:03:19,154
Turner intimidated Oldroyd
55
00:03:19,178 --> 00:03:22,652
by allegedly boasting of involvement
in Gail Vella's murder.
56
00:03:35,252 --> 00:03:38,110
- Sorry, sir. Have you got a sec?
- Come in.
57
00:03:38,652 --> 00:03:39,943
You don't need me to tell you
58
00:03:39,967 --> 00:03:43,308
we need a witness to this meeting
between Oldroyd and Turner
59
00:03:43,332 --> 00:03:45,589
to identify whether it was Boyle
or Banks.
60
00:03:45,615 --> 00:03:48,428
Unfortunately, the CHIS lied
about the name of the pub.
61
00:03:48,452 --> 00:03:51,188
Handler believes he was protecting
friends who trade drugs there.
62
00:03:51,212 --> 00:03:52,828
We're checking out establishments
63
00:03:52,852 --> 00:03:55,108
in the vicinity
of Beechwood House for CCTV,
64
00:03:55,132 --> 00:03:57,388
plus local authority cameras
in the area,
65
00:03:57,412 --> 00:04:00,268
just in the hope of identifying
Oldroyd, Banks or Boyle
66
00:04:00,292 --> 00:04:01,628
on the night of the 26th.
67
00:04:01,652 --> 00:04:03,971
- Cheers, Chris. Crack on.
- Boss.
68
00:04:03,995 --> 00:04:05,332
- Thanks.
- Ma'am.
69
00:04:07,452 --> 00:04:09,188
Boss, obviously we've got to consider
70
00:04:09,212 --> 00:04:11,348
whether Oldroyd's death
was suicide or murder.
71
00:04:11,372 --> 00:04:12,788
Hence we're investigating it.
72
00:04:12,812 --> 00:04:15,268
Yeah, I'm not saying anything
you don't already know, boss,
73
00:04:15,292 --> 00:04:17,308
but if it was murder,
then it raises the question
74
00:04:17,332 --> 00:04:19,972
that someone knew Oldroyd
had info on Gail Vella's death.
75
00:04:21,012 --> 00:04:24,148
I know. I hate to say it, Kate,
76
00:04:24,172 --> 00:04:26,348
but one thing I've learned
over the years,
77
00:04:26,372 --> 00:04:28,452
the fewer coppers in the loop,
the better.
78
00:04:54,689 --> 00:04:56,105
What's going on with Farida Jatri?
79
00:04:56,372 --> 00:04:58,148
I was about to ask the same, sir.
80
00:04:58,172 --> 00:05:00,388
She's just handed in a transfer request.
81
00:05:00,412 --> 00:05:02,348
Personal reasons.
82
00:05:02,372 --> 00:05:03,908
She's an experienced PS.
83
00:05:04,103 --> 00:05:06,543
We're at a crucial phase of Vella.
84
00:05:09,110 --> 00:05:13,350
In confidence, sir, I've noticed
some issues with PS Jatri.
85
00:05:14,012 --> 00:05:15,470
What kind of issues?
86
00:05:16,390 --> 00:05:19,310
I don't want to say anything
that might come back to haunt us.
87
00:05:19,334 --> 00:05:21,508
Last thing you need is a tribunal.
88
00:05:21,664 --> 00:05:23,144
What?
89
00:05:24,212 --> 00:05:25,588
I'll draft a glowing reference,
90
00:05:25,613 --> 00:05:28,093
and she'll be some
other station's problem.
91
00:05:29,828 --> 00:05:31,228
You're a life-saver.
92
00:05:32,484 --> 00:05:33,644
Yeah.
93
00:05:44,132 --> 00:05:45,292
- Sir.
- What have you got?
94
00:05:45,316 --> 00:05:46,388
Sir, the team have managed
95
00:05:46,412 --> 00:05:48,709
to pull some Gail Vella reports
from our archive.
96
00:05:48,751 --> 00:05:51,612
Obviously, they all relate to
cases involving AC-12.
97
00:05:52,772 --> 00:05:54,828
Chief Inspector Osbourne!
98
00:05:54,852 --> 00:05:57,428
Chief Inspector Osbourne!
99
00:05:57,452 --> 00:06:00,148
I take pride
in the courage and professionalism
100
00:06:00,172 --> 00:06:03,107
of my counterterrorism officers.
To say any more
101
00:06:03,131 --> 00:06:05,868
risks prejudicing the inquest.
Thank you.
102
00:06:05,892 --> 00:06:08,028
Chief Inspector!
103
00:06:08,052 --> 00:06:09,868
Official police statements record
104
00:06:09,892 --> 00:06:12,428
counter-terrorism officers
shouted, "Armed police"
105
00:06:12,452 --> 00:06:14,967
and ordered Mr Ali to surrender.
106
00:06:14,991 --> 00:06:18,228
Mr Ali's widow, Aaliyah, insists
there was no warning,
107
00:06:18,252 --> 00:06:19,708
no chance to surrender
108
00:06:19,732 --> 00:06:22,508
before her husband was gunned down
by a hail of bullets.
109
00:06:22,710 --> 00:06:24,268
They lied through their teeth,
110
00:06:24,292 --> 00:06:26,988
every single one of them,
except you, Steve.
111
00:06:27,012 --> 00:06:28,868
I mean, talk about an outrage.
112
00:06:28,892 --> 00:06:30,514
A commanding officer made chief.
113
00:06:30,538 --> 00:06:34,188
If that had happened on my patch...
Jesus.
114
00:06:34,212 --> 00:06:35,708
Next one, Chloe.
115
00:06:47,533 --> 00:06:51,029
A jury found retired Chief
Superintendent Patrick Fairbank
116
00:06:51,054 --> 00:06:53,390
guilty of all charges.
117
00:06:53,415 --> 00:06:56,911
What that jury didn't hear, and
only now am I allowed to report,
118
00:06:57,012 --> 00:07:00,443
are allegations Patrick Fairbank
suppressed police investigations
119
00:07:00,467 --> 00:07:02,428
into child sexual exploitation
120
00:07:02,452 --> 00:07:04,508
that transcended local political figures
121
00:07:04,532 --> 00:07:06,788
such as Councillor Dale Roach.
122
00:07:06,812 --> 00:07:08,708
It's now a matter of public record
123
00:07:08,732 --> 00:07:11,053
that Jimmy Savile cultivated
relationships
124
00:07:11,077 --> 00:07:13,068
with senior police officers.
125
00:07:13,092 --> 00:07:14,866
Savile exploited those relationships
126
00:07:14,897 --> 00:07:18,998
to intimidate anyone attempting
to investigate his offending.
127
00:07:19,022 --> 00:07:20,798
We now realise what Savile was getting
128
00:07:20,822 --> 00:07:23,943
out of those relationships
with senior police officers.
129
00:07:23,967 --> 00:07:27,158
What remains unknown and uninvestigated
130
00:07:27,182 --> 00:07:28,638
is what those officers were getting
131
00:07:28,662 --> 00:07:31,118
out of their relationship with Savile.
132
00:07:31,142 --> 00:07:33,678
Gail Vella, reporting
from Queen Elizabeth Law Courts.
133
00:07:34,270 --> 00:07:36,459
So Gail Vella drew attention
to alleged links
134
00:07:36,483 --> 00:07:39,758
between organised crime, politicians
and senior police officers.
135
00:07:40,024 --> 00:07:42,824
And these are just the reports
we found in our own archive.
136
00:07:44,824 --> 00:07:47,184
Wee girl killed in cold blood...
137
00:07:48,742 --> 00:07:50,590
...and her killer free as a bird.
138
00:07:53,502 --> 00:07:55,510
- Thank you, Chloe.
- Sir.
139
00:07:59,033 --> 00:08:00,913
- Cheers, Chloe.
- Sarge.
140
00:08:05,782 --> 00:08:07,278
Gaffer, it can't be a coincidence
141
00:08:07,302 --> 00:08:10,038
Carl Banks was a violent offender
involved with organised crime.
142
00:08:10,062 --> 00:08:11,718
Yeah, but if your man pulled
the trigger,
143
00:08:11,742 --> 00:08:13,558
that means he's a gun for hire.
144
00:08:13,582 --> 00:08:15,478
That order came from higher up.
145
00:08:16,130 --> 00:08:17,518
But the question still remains,
146
00:08:17,542 --> 00:08:19,718
what is the motive
for Gail Vella's murder?
147
00:08:19,742 --> 00:08:22,718
All right, she's a controversial
journalist. I'll give you that.
148
00:08:22,742 --> 00:08:25,438
But there's no evidence to suggest
that she dug up anything
149
00:08:25,462 --> 00:08:26,958
that wasn't there before.
150
00:08:27,224 --> 00:08:29,464
Maybe she was working on something
that would.
151
00:08:35,902 --> 00:08:37,822
Superintendent Hastings.
152
00:08:42,982 --> 00:08:44,262
Thanks, Steve. Thanks.
153
00:08:45,918 --> 00:08:47,134
Sir.
154
00:08:47,166 --> 00:08:49,286
Yeah, I'll be right down.
155
00:09:04,582 --> 00:09:05,958
Steph, what are you doing here?
156
00:09:05,982 --> 00:09:07,918
You promised you'd call me back.
It's HMRC.
157
00:09:07,942 --> 00:09:11,102
Not here, not here,
let's go somewhere private.
158
00:09:46,542 --> 00:09:47,901
- Tea, coffee?
- No, we're fine.
159
00:09:47,925 --> 00:09:48,998
Thanks, though.
160
00:09:49,022 --> 00:09:51,775
Cool. So, have a seat.
161
00:09:51,803 --> 00:09:54,494
- Cheers.
- How can I help you?
162
00:09:54,538 --> 00:09:57,758
I would like to ask you some
questions about Gail Vella.
163
00:09:58,226 --> 00:10:00,558
You were working with her closely
at the time of her death.
164
00:10:00,582 --> 00:10:02,598
Detectives interviewed me a few
days after.
165
00:10:02,910 --> 00:10:06,238
Our department
is conducting further inquiries.
166
00:10:06,670 --> 00:10:09,358
Yeah, I was her producer for a
couple of years.
167
00:10:09,382 --> 00:10:12,678
Well, one line of inquiry is
she fell victim to an obsessed fan.
168
00:10:12,702 --> 00:10:15,678
Do you recall any individuals
that gave Gail cause for concern?
169
00:10:15,702 --> 00:10:17,598
Female journalists get the worst of it,
170
00:10:17,622 --> 00:10:20,038
from accusations of bias
to threats of sexual violence.
171
00:10:20,062 --> 00:10:22,998
Everything was reported at the time
to our security or to the police.
172
00:10:23,022 --> 00:10:26,158
You say Miss Vella received threats
as a result of her reporting.
173
00:10:26,182 --> 00:10:28,550
Were there any particularly
controversial reports?
174
00:10:30,822 --> 00:10:32,542
Maybe I should just show you.
175
00:10:33,662 --> 00:10:36,238
The Deputy Chief Constable
and I are pleased to report
176
00:10:36,262 --> 00:10:39,598
that Operation Pear Tree has
completed a thorough investigation
177
00:10:39,622 --> 00:10:41,598
into institutionalised complicity
178
00:10:41,622 --> 00:10:44,838
between organised criminals
and corrupt police officers.
179
00:10:44,862 --> 00:10:47,558
Its robust findings couldn't be clearer.
180
00:10:47,582 --> 00:10:51,718
There is no institutionalised
corruption in this police force.
181
00:10:51,742 --> 00:10:55,250
Operation Pear Tree,
the inquiry described
182
00:10:55,274 --> 00:10:59,078
as the most thorough ever undertaken
into police corruption,
183
00:10:59,102 --> 00:11:00,798
is now officially closed.
184
00:11:01,190 --> 00:11:04,038
Some will wonder why this news
is being announced
185
00:11:04,062 --> 00:11:05,758
over a holiday weekend.
186
00:11:05,782 --> 00:11:08,598
Cynics might conclude the
Police and Crime Commissioner
187
00:11:08,622 --> 00:11:12,358
would prefer his statement
isn't examined too closely.
188
00:11:12,382 --> 00:11:15,198
Perhaps Mr Sindwhani has learned
the secret to high office
189
00:11:15,222 --> 00:11:18,478
appears no longer to reside in
revealing the deepest truths,
190
00:11:18,502 --> 00:11:21,318
but in telling the most attractive lies.
191
00:11:21,342 --> 00:11:22,518
Gail Vella reporting...
192
00:11:22,542 --> 00:11:25,198
I had to cut that from
the broadcast version.
193
00:11:25,222 --> 00:11:28,318
This is unbroadcast material?
It would never have been released?
194
00:11:28,342 --> 00:11:30,158
Not in this form, no.
195
00:11:30,182 --> 00:11:33,641
She'd seen the success of a podcast
about police corruption
196
00:11:33,674 --> 00:11:36,274
surrounding the murder of a private
detective, Daniel Morgan.
197
00:11:36,329 --> 00:11:38,039
The material Gail couldn't get on air,
198
00:11:38,063 --> 00:11:40,358
she was funnelling
into a podcast serial of her own.
199
00:11:40,382 --> 00:11:41,998
Where can we access this podcast?
200
00:11:42,350 --> 00:11:44,638
It never got that far.
Gail must not have finished it.
201
00:11:44,662 --> 00:11:46,914
Do you know anything about
the content of this podcast?
202
00:11:46,938 --> 00:11:48,158
I know she was pursuing
203
00:11:48,182 --> 00:11:50,238
several senior police officers for
interview.
204
00:11:50,262 --> 00:11:51,678
She was digging much more deeply
205
00:11:51,702 --> 00:11:53,829
into why there'd been suppression
of police inquiries
206
00:11:53,869 --> 00:11:55,998
into the likes of Councillor Dale Roach.
207
00:11:56,022 --> 00:11:59,278
- Did she keep notes or recordings?
- Yeah. What journalist wouldn't?
208
00:11:59,763 --> 00:12:02,403
That's why I suggested Gail's
killer must have stolen them.
209
00:12:03,302 --> 00:12:06,638
Sorry, you disclosed this
to the original murder detectives?
210
00:12:06,662 --> 00:12:09,150
And they said there was no
grounds to suspect a burglary.
211
00:12:12,862 --> 00:12:14,038
This is the first we've heard
212
00:12:14,062 --> 00:12:16,198
of burglary being a factor
in Gail Vella's murder.
213
00:12:16,222 --> 00:12:18,518
Nor was there evidence of a
disturbance inside the property.
214
00:12:18,542 --> 00:12:19,638
The killer stole something.
215
00:12:19,662 --> 00:12:21,918
He knew exactly what he was looking
for and where to find it.
216
00:12:21,942 --> 00:12:24,015
And I'm assuming the original
investigation
217
00:12:24,039 --> 00:12:26,195
seized all of Gail
Vella's electronic devices.
218
00:12:26,219 --> 00:12:29,078
Yes, sir. They were after messages
or threats from an obsessed fan.
219
00:12:29,102 --> 00:12:31,055
Yes, but they weren't looking
at her journalism.
220
00:12:31,100 --> 00:12:32,718
If your theory is right, Steve,
221
00:12:32,742 --> 00:12:34,878
these files could point a finger
at someone
222
00:12:34,902 --> 00:12:37,158
who may have had a motive
to order her murder.
223
00:12:37,182 --> 00:12:39,798
I think those devices
need to be reanalysed.
224
00:12:39,822 --> 00:12:42,838
We'll have to find a way to do that
without alerting Davidson.
225
00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,496
Right...
226
00:12:44,583 --> 00:12:45,823
Thank you, Chloe.
227
00:12:47,272 --> 00:12:48,312
Sir.
228
00:12:56,902 --> 00:12:58,918
You're worried about what might
happen to Kate
229
00:12:58,942 --> 00:13:00,998
when Davidson finds
out we're investigating her?
230
00:13:01,022 --> 00:13:02,262
- Yes, sir.
- I get it, son,
231
00:13:02,286 --> 00:13:03,982
I really do. I get it, but...
232
00:13:05,182 --> 00:13:06,883
...Kate has made her bed.
233
00:13:06,914 --> 00:13:10,390
Now she's got to lie in it,
and we have a job to do.
234
00:13:11,739 --> 00:13:12,755
Sir.
235
00:13:12,911 --> 00:13:14,751
Wait, Steve.
236
00:13:19,142 --> 00:13:21,350
I've been giving the situation some
thought,
237
00:13:22,662 --> 00:13:24,878
and loyalty works both ways.
238
00:13:24,902 --> 00:13:27,265
I'm going to have to confirm it with HR,
239
00:13:27,289 --> 00:13:32,310
but ahead of the formal promotion
process, I am making you a temp DI.
240
00:13:34,542 --> 00:13:37,758
Congratulations, son, you've earned it.
241
00:13:38,376 --> 00:13:39,950
Thank you, sir.
242
00:14:20,773 --> 00:14:22,013
All right?
243
00:14:23,009 --> 00:14:24,329
All right.
244
00:14:25,617 --> 00:14:27,073
Just like old times.
245
00:14:27,190 --> 00:14:28,298
Yeah.
246
00:14:29,368 --> 00:14:31,478
We're moving forward with Vella.
247
00:14:31,710 --> 00:14:33,278
Moving forward how?
248
00:14:33,302 --> 00:14:35,278
At some point, we're going to hit
the Hill.
249
00:14:35,302 --> 00:14:36,918
Shit. For Christ's sake, Steve...
250
00:14:36,942 --> 00:14:38,318
This is why I got you here.
251
00:14:38,590 --> 00:14:40,798
I can't leave a digital trail,
but I wanted you to know.
252
00:14:40,822 --> 00:14:42,478
Well, why are you involving me?
253
00:14:42,710 --> 00:14:44,438
We've got some leads, but...
254
00:14:44,462 --> 00:14:48,211
Look, Kate, if you can feed me the
inside track on Davidson,
255
00:14:48,243 --> 00:14:49,918
maybe we won't need to show our hand
just yet.
256
00:14:49,942 --> 00:14:52,638
For Christ's sake, Steve, she's my
gaffer. You want me to rat on her?
257
00:14:52,662 --> 00:14:54,047
You're no rat if she's bent.
258
00:14:54,071 --> 00:14:56,038
- What am I, then?
- An honest copper.
259
00:14:56,062 --> 00:14:58,219
Yeah, I'm sure everyone will
see it like that.
260
00:14:58,260 --> 00:15:00,158
Look, Kate, it goes beyond Davidson.
261
00:15:00,510 --> 00:15:02,358
If organised crime ordered
the murder of Gail Vella,
262
00:15:02,382 --> 00:15:04,718
they're protecting Carl Banks
and framing Terry Boyle.
263
00:15:04,742 --> 00:15:07,438
Yeah, we get it. We're working on it.
264
00:15:07,462 --> 00:15:08,878
Look, I just need to know when.
265
00:15:08,902 --> 00:15:12,598
When is it going to come out that
AC-12 are investigating Davidson?
266
00:15:13,030 --> 00:15:14,838
I've already said too much.
267
00:15:14,862 --> 00:15:16,190
Yeah, likewise.
268
00:15:19,782 --> 00:15:21,870
You always choose a right shithole.
269
00:15:42,902 --> 00:15:45,638
- All right, Chris?
- Pathologist's in there now, boss.
270
00:15:45,662 --> 00:15:47,318
Knife wound to the throat.
271
00:15:47,342 --> 00:15:49,090
Looks like the body's
been here for a few days.
272
00:15:49,114 --> 00:15:50,958
Witnesses?
273
00:15:50,982 --> 00:15:54,958
It's a long-derelict site with no
security presence and no CCTV.
274
00:15:54,982 --> 00:15:57,518
Highly unlikely we'll harvest
any surveillance images.
275
00:15:57,542 --> 00:15:58,622
Any ID yet?
276
00:15:59,662 --> 00:16:02,462
Matches the appearance of Carl Banks.
277
00:16:08,062 --> 00:16:09,078
Shit.
278
00:16:09,102 --> 00:16:10,638
Good news, ma'am.
279
00:16:10,662 --> 00:16:12,222
The search team's found a knife.
280
00:16:14,350 --> 00:16:16,478
No apparent blood deposits
on the ground,
281
00:16:16,502 --> 00:16:17,878
but best test for them anyway.
282
00:16:17,902 --> 00:16:20,982
The killer didn't put much effort
into evidence disposal.
283
00:16:23,902 --> 00:16:27,309
DI Fleming,
Farida's replacement, PC Ryan...
284
00:16:27,333 --> 00:16:28,664
Pilkington, ma'am.
285
00:16:28,696 --> 00:16:30,038
Pleased to meet you, ma'am.
286
00:16:30,270 --> 00:16:33,238
Don't knock it, Kate.
We're overdue a lucky break.
287
00:16:33,262 --> 00:16:34,990
- Thanks, Ryan.
- Ma'am.
288
00:16:44,182 --> 00:16:47,518
Fingerprints are only a 90% match
due to early decomposition,
289
00:16:47,542 --> 00:16:49,998
but DNA's confirmed the body
is definitely Carl Banks.
290
00:16:50,022 --> 00:16:52,638
Sorry, ma'am, you asked to receive
the forensic report
291
00:16:52,662 --> 00:16:54,918
- as soon as it was in.
- Thanks, Ryan.
292
00:16:54,942 --> 00:16:57,484
You couldn't do us a cuppa,
could you? I'm gasping.
293
00:16:57,508 --> 00:16:59,997
Yeah, no problem at all, ma'am.
DI Fleming, DS Lomax?
294
00:17:00,021 --> 00:17:01,046
I'm fine, ta.
295
00:17:01,079 --> 00:17:03,278
Me too. But... this has been bugging me.
296
00:17:03,302 --> 00:17:05,358
Have we worked together before?
297
00:17:06,038 --> 00:17:08,407
Did you come and give a talk
at the training college, ma'am?
298
00:17:08,432 --> 00:17:09,759
No.
299
00:17:10,627 --> 00:17:12,827
- Thanks, Ryan.
- Ma'am.
300
00:17:14,180 --> 00:17:16,765
- For Christ's sake.
- Boss?
301
00:17:16,789 --> 00:17:20,238
Fingerprints on the knife found
close to Carl Banks's body
302
00:17:20,262 --> 00:17:22,990
match Alastair Oldroyd, the CHIS.
303
00:17:23,822 --> 00:17:26,518
The pathologist confirmed Banks
died a couple of days earlier.
304
00:17:26,542 --> 00:17:28,990
The timeline works for Oldroyd
to have killed Banks.
305
00:17:30,378 --> 00:17:33,098
Sarge? I mean, sir?
306
00:17:40,142 --> 00:17:41,622
Shit. Sir.
307
00:17:43,022 --> 00:17:45,638
- What have you got?
- Sir, it's just come up on the Box.
308
00:17:45,662 --> 00:17:47,878
Carl Banks has been found dead.
309
00:17:47,902 --> 00:17:49,598
No more beating about the bush.
310
00:17:49,622 --> 00:17:51,828
- We raid Operation Lighthouse.
- Sir.
311
00:17:52,590 --> 00:17:54,502
I'll put together a team and transport.
312
00:18:03,462 --> 00:18:05,032
AC-12, DI Arnott.
313
00:18:05,073 --> 00:18:06,997
It's your lawful duty to
comply with my officers.
314
00:18:07,021 --> 00:18:08,110
Sir.
315
00:18:37,062 --> 00:18:38,946
DI Arnott, AC-12.
316
00:18:38,980 --> 00:18:42,438
We have the lawful authority to
investigate Operation Lighthouse.
317
00:18:42,462 --> 00:18:44,238
All officers, go to your desks.
318
00:18:44,262 --> 00:18:46,801
You'll each be questioned by an
AC-12 caseworker.
319
00:18:46,844 --> 00:18:48,125
You'll each be obliged
320
00:18:48,149 --> 00:18:50,798
to surrender all materials relating
to Operation Lighthouse
321
00:18:50,822 --> 00:18:52,438
to said caseworkers.
322
00:18:52,462 --> 00:18:55,638
Failure to comply will be a breach
of your duties and responsibilities
323
00:18:55,662 --> 00:18:57,398
under police conduct regulations
324
00:18:57,422 --> 00:19:00,067
and may lead to a misconduct
charge under said regulations.
325
00:19:00,091 --> 00:19:01,638
Nobody move.
326
00:19:01,662 --> 00:19:03,958
What the hell's all this about?
On whose authority?
327
00:19:03,982 --> 00:19:06,598
We have a signed authority
from Deputy Chief Constable Wise
328
00:19:06,622 --> 00:19:10,030
to seize all MIT files relating
to the murder of Gail Vella.
329
00:19:10,502 --> 00:19:12,867
- Let me see that.
- Sir, as you know,
330
00:19:12,891 --> 00:19:15,838
wilful obstruction of my officers
executing their lawful duty
331
00:19:15,862 --> 00:19:17,158
is a criminal offence.
332
00:19:17,182 --> 00:19:21,477
DCI Davidson. I notified the DCC
of my concerns
333
00:19:21,512 --> 00:19:24,438
regarding leaking
of confidential police information
334
00:19:24,462 --> 00:19:27,094
such as the operation to arrest
Ross Turner
335
00:19:27,118 --> 00:19:30,518
and the identity of the CHIS who
gave us Turner's name and address.
336
00:19:30,542 --> 00:19:33,047
The DCC agreed to a moratorium
337
00:19:33,071 --> 00:19:35,838
on further distribution
of Operation Lighthouse files
338
00:19:35,862 --> 00:19:39,318
until said information leakage
has been fully investigated.
339
00:19:39,342 --> 00:19:40,918
We'd be the ones to investigate it.
340
00:19:40,942 --> 00:19:43,638
Nonetheless, you'll see the DCC's
authorised me
341
00:19:43,662 --> 00:19:45,798
to withhold Operation Lighthouse files.
342
00:19:45,822 --> 00:19:47,678
Why didn't the DCC inform us about this?
343
00:19:47,702 --> 00:19:50,558
To prevent information leakage,
naturally.
344
00:19:50,582 --> 00:19:53,398
No, you did it to make mugs of AC-12.
345
00:19:53,422 --> 00:19:55,518
That was just an added bonus.
346
00:20:00,102 --> 00:20:01,270
Priceless!
347
00:20:02,542 --> 00:20:04,782
- Let's go.
- Right, everyone, let's go.
348
00:20:16,302 --> 00:20:18,430
Cheers, Kate. Nice one.
349
00:20:31,862 --> 00:20:33,758
How did Davidson know?
350
00:20:33,782 --> 00:20:35,022
Give me a minute.
351
00:20:48,382 --> 00:20:50,038
Steve, I'm sorry.
352
00:20:50,062 --> 00:20:51,638
I trusted you, mate.
353
00:20:51,662 --> 00:20:54,158
Look, I'm damned if I do,
I'm damned if I don't.
354
00:20:54,182 --> 00:20:55,662
What was I supposed to do?
355
00:21:11,702 --> 00:21:14,718
Andrea advised me this is
about Operation Lighthouse.
356
00:21:14,742 --> 00:21:16,438
I need to be in the loop.
357
00:21:16,462 --> 00:21:20,118
Well, I am here because AC-12's
lawful investigation
358
00:21:20,142 --> 00:21:22,678
has been unjustly obstructed.
359
00:21:22,702 --> 00:21:25,158
Operation Lighthouse
has had its setbacks, of course,
360
00:21:25,182 --> 00:21:27,958
but your involvement needs to be
correctly handled
361
00:21:27,982 --> 00:21:30,278
so the public
don't leap to the wrong conclusion.
362
00:21:30,990 --> 00:21:33,878
I briefed Andrea on the required optics.
363
00:21:33,902 --> 00:21:37,502
This isn't an inquiry
into misconduct/corruption.
364
00:21:38,742 --> 00:21:42,118
Well, the investigation
usually precedes the findings.
365
00:21:42,142 --> 00:21:44,078
Clearly, we're all frustrated
366
00:21:44,102 --> 00:21:47,723
Gail Vella's murderer hasn't
been brought to justice yet,
367
00:21:47,758 --> 00:21:51,038
so it makes sense to pitch AC-12's
involvement
368
00:21:51,062 --> 00:21:53,302
as a routine performance review.
369
00:21:55,302 --> 00:21:56,718
Officers of your rank
370
00:21:56,742 --> 00:22:00,038
normally appreciate politics
as much as policing.
371
00:22:00,062 --> 00:22:01,342
Yes.
372
00:22:02,262 --> 00:22:05,478
I'm interested in one thing
and one thing only,
373
00:22:05,845 --> 00:22:07,645
and that's bent coppers.
374
00:22:08,622 --> 00:22:10,518
I hope you'll cooperate, Superintendent.
375
00:22:11,190 --> 00:22:13,398
Now, apologies, if you'll excuse me,
376
00:22:13,422 --> 00:22:16,542
- I'm due to attend the Crime Executive.
- Sir.
377
00:22:19,742 --> 00:22:22,638
Unless there are any outstanding
issues, Ted,
378
00:22:22,662 --> 00:22:24,798
I'm prepared to reissue the authority
379
00:22:24,822 --> 00:22:28,102
for AC-12 to proceed with your
review of Operation Lighthouse.
380
00:22:29,342 --> 00:22:31,398
It appears my team have been delayed
381
00:22:31,422 --> 00:22:34,704
for nothing better than a PR
briefing, the result of which
382
00:22:34,732 --> 00:22:38,008
is that MIT officers are now aware
of our inquiry
383
00:22:38,050 --> 00:22:41,438
and may be concealing
evidence as we speak.
384
00:22:41,462 --> 00:22:43,570
No-one's concealing evidence, Ted.
385
00:22:43,594 --> 00:22:46,958
They're working their bollocks off
trying to find Gail Vella's killer.
386
00:22:47,467 --> 00:22:49,227
Ma'am.
387
00:22:55,710 --> 00:22:59,918
- How'd it go, sir?
- Well, we're back in business.
388
00:22:59,942 --> 00:23:01,438
Thank you, sir.
389
00:23:01,462 --> 00:23:04,798
So you make the mess and I tidy it up,
390
00:23:04,822 --> 00:23:06,262
is that how this goes?
391
00:23:07,742 --> 00:23:09,238
Well, you're not denying it,
392
00:23:09,262 --> 00:23:11,598
so it must have been Officer J
or DI Kate Fleming
393
00:23:11,622 --> 00:23:12,838
who blew the gaff.
394
00:23:12,862 --> 00:23:16,678
I reckon you'd only trust Kate with
this kind of information, yeah?
395
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,141
Well, she's cooked her goose now.
396
00:23:19,649 --> 00:23:21,125
God help her
if she thinks she's going to get
397
00:23:21,162 --> 00:23:22,798
some kind of special treatment from me,
398
00:23:22,822 --> 00:23:26,078
because she's got another thing
coming. As for DCI Davidson,
399
00:23:26,102 --> 00:23:28,678
she must have had great fun
pulling this stroke,
400
00:23:29,626 --> 00:23:31,798
but she will be laughing
on the other side of her face
401
00:23:31,822 --> 00:23:33,430
when I'm finished with her.
402
00:23:33,820 --> 00:23:35,716
Serve her with a Reg 15.
403
00:23:36,022 --> 00:23:37,790
- Sir.
- Carry on.
404
00:24:19,542 --> 00:24:21,293
DC Bishop, AC-12.
405
00:24:21,329 --> 00:24:23,038
I'm sure you can all guess
what this is about.
406
00:24:23,062 --> 00:24:24,718
I need access to your computer.
407
00:24:24,742 --> 00:24:26,310
Could you stand up, please?
408
00:24:28,102 --> 00:24:30,062
Show me your files, please.
409
00:24:33,622 --> 00:24:35,158
Can I have your password, please?
410
00:24:35,182 --> 00:24:37,422
I need your login details.
411
00:24:41,062 --> 00:24:42,438
What is this document here?
412
00:24:42,462 --> 00:24:44,110
Here you go, sir.
413
00:24:48,862 --> 00:24:51,918
Ma'am, please find enclosed
a Regulation 15 notice
414
00:24:51,942 --> 00:24:54,518
requiring you to attend AC-12
for a formal interview
415
00:24:54,542 --> 00:24:56,622
within the next ten working days.
416
00:24:57,902 --> 00:24:59,758
A copy of this letter has been sent
417
00:24:59,782 --> 00:25:01,782
to your Police Federation
representative.
418
00:25:21,149 --> 00:25:23,626
_
419
00:25:47,422 --> 00:25:49,630
- Steve.
- I was up on a case.
420
00:25:50,502 --> 00:25:52,325
I'm sorry, Steph, I should have called.
421
00:25:52,583 --> 00:25:54,390
No, no, it's fine. Come in.
422
00:26:00,502 --> 00:26:02,862
- Tea, isn't it?
- Yeah, ta.
423
00:26:05,390 --> 00:26:07,118
How are the girls?
424
00:26:07,142 --> 00:26:09,710
Gemma still doesn't get it, not really.
425
00:26:10,542 --> 00:26:12,718
I'm dreading her not
remembering her daddy.
426
00:26:12,742 --> 00:26:15,150
Well, these will help.
John won't be forgotten.
427
00:26:16,622 --> 00:26:19,198
Thanks for all you did at the time.
428
00:26:19,222 --> 00:26:20,622
You didn't have to.
429
00:26:22,342 --> 00:26:24,758
I'd like to think he'd have done
the same for me.
430
00:26:24,782 --> 00:26:26,822
He died in the line of duty.
431
00:26:28,745 --> 00:26:30,945
Shame the big bosses never saw
it that way.
432
00:26:31,862 --> 00:26:34,442
Sorry, I ought to know, milk and sugar?
433
00:26:34,466 --> 00:26:35,702
Just milk, please.
434
00:26:45,022 --> 00:26:46,918
It's good you were able
to keep the house.
435
00:26:46,942 --> 00:26:49,998
- I know you were worried.
- Tearing my hair out, more like.
436
00:26:50,022 --> 00:26:53,142
Fortunately,
there was John's life insurance.
437
00:26:55,302 --> 00:26:56,518
Nice TV.
438
00:26:57,510 --> 00:26:59,678
Champions League game's on later.
439
00:26:59,702 --> 00:27:02,838
- Not that you lot have got an interest.
- Next season.
440
00:27:02,862 --> 00:27:05,398
I didn't know you'd bother
with the sports channels.
441
00:27:05,422 --> 00:27:08,022
It all comes in the package.
Cheap as chips.
442
00:27:09,502 --> 00:27:11,390
Sorry, what am I like? Sit down.
443
00:27:15,903 --> 00:27:17,343
Steve?
444
00:27:20,022 --> 00:27:22,318
It's just a spasm. It'll pass.
445
00:27:22,342 --> 00:27:23,670
You sure?
446
00:27:27,022 --> 00:27:28,789
I've got some painkillers
in the car. I'll just...
447
00:27:28,813 --> 00:27:31,356
Don't move,
I'll get them. I'll get your car keys.
448
00:27:31,380 --> 00:27:32,910
Inside pocket.
449
00:28:18,462 --> 00:28:21,798
I can't believe the DCC caved so easily.
450
00:28:22,041 --> 00:28:23,601
Sorry, boss.
451
00:28:25,062 --> 00:28:26,558
Not your fault at all.
452
00:28:26,582 --> 00:28:28,358
Thanks for the heads-up.
453
00:28:28,382 --> 00:28:31,422
I know the kind of cases
that AC-12 are into, boss.
454
00:28:33,395 --> 00:28:35,550
Out of work, forget "Boss".
455
00:28:40,268 --> 00:28:41,588
You all right?
456
00:28:44,462 --> 00:28:46,150
This Reg 15...
457
00:28:47,622 --> 00:28:50,070
Yeah, I know how it must feel,
458
00:28:50,662 --> 00:28:53,182
but it's just the way AC-12 operate.
459
00:28:55,942 --> 00:28:58,638
The truth is, it's all getting
a bit tense.
460
00:28:59,446 --> 00:29:00,523
How does it make me look,
461
00:29:00,547 --> 00:29:03,750
investigating a guy with learning
difficulties?
462
00:29:04,222 --> 00:29:05,598
Straight up, Jo,
463
00:29:05,622 --> 00:29:07,822
do you think he could have killed Gail?
464
00:29:10,142 --> 00:29:12,398
You've been doing this job
long enough to realise
465
00:29:12,422 --> 00:29:14,118
we can never know for sure.
466
00:29:14,710 --> 00:29:18,150
We just gather the evidence,
do our best.
467
00:29:19,822 --> 00:29:23,222
Right now, my best
is nowhere near good enough.
468
00:29:24,662 --> 00:29:29,790
A young woman, could have been you
or me, Kate, her life cut short.
469
00:29:31,902 --> 00:29:33,678
And whoever did it's got away with it,
470
00:29:33,702 --> 00:29:35,182
and that's my fault.
471
00:29:37,702 --> 00:29:38,969
Do you fancy another?
472
00:29:39,032 --> 00:29:42,469
- Ladies?
- Two more, please.
473
00:29:42,493 --> 00:29:43,990
Can we get those?
474
00:29:52,502 --> 00:29:54,518
Have a good night, guys.
475
00:29:54,901 --> 00:29:56,461
Two more, please.
476
00:30:00,062 --> 00:30:01,558
I'm sorry, Kate.
477
00:30:01,910 --> 00:30:04,758
My self-pity's blown your chances.
478
00:30:04,782 --> 00:30:06,182
Nah, not really my type.
479
00:30:15,182 --> 00:30:16,558
You sure you're OK to drive?
480
00:30:16,582 --> 00:30:19,398
Yeah, sorry about all that earlier.
I'm fine.
481
00:30:19,422 --> 00:30:21,478
The last thing I meant was to put
you out.
482
00:30:21,502 --> 00:30:24,342
Get away, it's just nice to have
some grown-up company for a change.
483
00:30:27,542 --> 00:30:28,918
This a long job?
484
00:30:29,262 --> 00:30:30,702
The case you're up here on?
485
00:30:32,281 --> 00:30:33,817
Could be.
486
00:30:33,842 --> 00:30:36,482
If you're passing again, don't hesitate.
487
00:30:45,902 --> 00:30:47,878
Don't stay out, it's freezing.
488
00:30:47,902 --> 00:30:49,590
I've got to set the sat-nav
and everything.
489
00:30:50,702 --> 00:30:52,910
Night, Steve. Safe journey.
490
00:30:53,966 --> 00:30:55,246
Night.
491
00:31:05,742 --> 00:31:09,998
Thanks for coming out, Kate.
Sorry to unload my problems.
492
00:31:10,022 --> 00:31:13,142
No worries.
Glad I could be a sounding board.
493
00:31:14,342 --> 00:31:16,230
Well, this is me.
494
00:31:17,862 --> 00:31:21,022
It's Mark's turn to have Josh this
weekend if you're at a loose end.
495
00:31:22,942 --> 00:31:24,878
I'd need to check my diary.
496
00:31:25,106 --> 00:31:26,826
Yeah, no pressure.
497
00:31:36,102 --> 00:31:37,510
My diary's empty.
498
00:31:38,542 --> 00:31:41,078
I've just come out
of a long-term relationship.
499
00:31:41,102 --> 00:31:42,462
I, um...
500
00:31:48,539 --> 00:31:51,819
It would be nice to see
you at the weekend.
501
00:32:16,022 --> 00:32:18,398
Chloe, how's it going?
502
00:32:18,422 --> 00:32:20,838
Davidson gave us full cooperation,
so we've got the lot.
503
00:32:20,862 --> 00:32:23,758
We've recovered Vella's computers
that were seized after her murder.
504
00:32:23,782 --> 00:32:24,903
I thought you'd want to prioritise them.
505
00:32:24,927 --> 00:32:26,398
- Great. Hi, Amanda.
- Hi.
506
00:32:26,422 --> 00:32:28,998
The digital forensics team
have triaged the desktop computer,
507
00:32:29,022 --> 00:32:31,558
the laptop computer. The truth is,
they're remarkably clean.
508
00:32:31,582 --> 00:32:32,598
What do you mean?
509
00:32:32,622 --> 00:32:35,878
All applications still have store
settings, hardly any personal files.
510
00:32:35,902 --> 00:32:37,266
What, they were planted?
511
00:32:37,290 --> 00:32:39,878
Her killer replaced her actual
computers to cover up the burglary?
512
00:32:39,902 --> 00:32:42,798
I'll order the keyboards to be
swabbed and screens fingerprinted.
513
00:32:42,822 --> 00:32:44,922
That way, we can see if
Gail ever even touched them.
514
00:32:44,946 --> 00:32:46,438
Good call. So you've
found nothing at all?
515
00:32:46,468 --> 00:32:48,718
The only item of interest is
a tiny audio file.
516
00:32:48,742 --> 00:32:50,558
It appears only partially downloaded.
517
00:32:50,582 --> 00:32:52,758
- How would that happen?
- Going with your theory,
518
00:32:52,782 --> 00:32:55,478
it would be when the murderer
installed the replacement devices.
519
00:32:55,502 --> 00:32:58,118
They would have synced to her phone,
momentarily started to import
520
00:32:58,142 --> 00:33:00,118
the audio file before the murderer
broke the link.
521
00:33:00,142 --> 00:33:02,238
That would involve
him knowing her passwords.
522
00:33:02,710 --> 00:33:04,158
Sorry.
523
00:33:04,182 --> 00:33:06,598
Savile lied to cover them up.
524
00:33:06,622 --> 00:33:08,878
Some police officers not only
accepted those lies,
525
00:33:08,902 --> 00:33:10,458
they propagated them.
526
00:33:10,493 --> 00:33:12,862
We're losing our power
to challenge lies.
527
00:33:12,899 --> 00:33:14,902
There's some people
you can't challenge.
528
00:33:18,582 --> 00:33:21,891
We're losing our power to challenge
lies.
529
00:33:21,915 --> 00:33:24,622
There's some people you can't challenge.
530
00:33:33,022 --> 00:33:36,670
Sorry, sir, I didn't think
you'd still be here.
531
00:33:37,502 --> 00:33:39,838
We need to find the rest
of Gail's recordings.
532
00:33:39,862 --> 00:33:41,822
Yeah, Amanda said she's on it.
533
00:33:50,540 --> 00:33:54,350
Do you mind me asking, sir,
but why have these been put up?
534
00:33:55,542 --> 00:33:58,238
The gaffer's never going to give it up,
535
00:33:58,262 --> 00:34:00,958
not as long as he still runs this place.
536
00:34:00,982 --> 00:34:02,638
And what about you?
537
00:34:02,662 --> 00:34:03,838
What about me?
538
00:34:03,862 --> 00:34:07,822
Well, do you still believe there's
a fourth man out there, H?
539
00:34:11,622 --> 00:34:13,102
I've moved on.
540
00:34:40,470 --> 00:34:42,030
That's us now.
541
00:35:01,540 --> 00:35:03,797
Anti-Corruption Unit 12 interview
542
00:35:03,821 --> 00:35:06,036
of Detective Chief Inspector
Joanne Davidson
543
00:35:06,060 --> 00:35:08,415
in the presence of her Police
Federation representative,
544
00:35:08,454 --> 00:35:11,996
DCI John Rix, by Superintendent
Hastings,
545
00:35:12,020 --> 00:35:15,100
Detective Inspector Arnott
and Detective Constable Bishop.
546
00:35:16,300 --> 00:35:19,196
Ma'am, this interview relates
to Operation Lighthouse,
547
00:35:19,220 --> 00:35:23,781
the inquiry into the murder of Gail
Vella on September 10th, 2019,
548
00:35:23,805 --> 00:35:26,031
on which you've been senior
investigating officer
549
00:35:26,055 --> 00:35:28,596
since 6th October of that same year.
550
00:35:28,620 --> 00:35:30,392
Document six in your folders.
551
00:35:30,430 --> 00:35:32,696
Document six is a copy of
an incident report
552
00:35:32,720 --> 00:35:34,438
lawfully seized by AC-12
553
00:35:34,471 --> 00:35:36,736
from the offices of the murder
investigation team
554
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:40,376
located at Hillside Lane Police
Station on 4th November.
555
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:42,536
Said incident report describes events
556
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:44,256
on the morning of 27th October,
557
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:47,096
specifically the diversion and delay
of an operation
558
00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:49,656
to arrest a suspect
in the murder of Gail Vella
559
00:35:49,680 --> 00:35:51,256
in order to attend an armed robbery
560
00:35:51,280 --> 00:35:54,296
taking place at Hickey's Bookmakers,
Verlaine Road.
561
00:35:54,320 --> 00:35:56,576
On screen, images 11 to 14.
562
00:35:56,600 --> 00:36:00,640
Images 11 to 14 show street views
of said location.
563
00:36:01,880 --> 00:36:04,096
DCI Davidson, can you kindly
explain your actions
564
00:36:04,120 --> 00:36:08,670
on the morning of October 27th
in relation to this armed robbery?
565
00:36:10,350 --> 00:36:14,656
En route to arrest the suspect,
I observed a suspicious vehicle.
566
00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,496
Further inquiries detected
an armed robbery in progress.
567
00:36:17,520 --> 00:36:19,776
I ordered my officers to intervene.
568
00:36:19,800 --> 00:36:22,816
DCI Davidson's actions prevented
a serious and immediate threat
569
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:24,445
to members of the public.
570
00:36:24,698 --> 00:36:26,165
Commendable.
571
00:36:26,190 --> 00:36:29,496
- DI Arnott.
- Image 14 on screen.
572
00:36:30,150 --> 00:36:33,616
Image 14 shows the line of sight
from the route of the MIT convoy
573
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,376
to the location of the
suspicious vehicle.
574
00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:38,376
Given you were a front-facing passenger,
575
00:36:38,400 --> 00:36:39,576
it was a narrow line of sight.
576
00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:41,896
Plus, you were going like the clappers.
577
00:36:42,510 --> 00:36:45,321
Nonetheless, I did see the vehicle
and, as a result,
578
00:36:45,364 --> 00:36:49,456
numerous members of the public
were saved from a terrifying ordeal.
579
00:36:49,831 --> 00:36:50,871
Oh.
580
00:36:51,520 --> 00:36:53,616
And what was it about this vehicle?
581
00:36:54,227 --> 00:36:55,262
Sir?
582
00:36:55,286 --> 00:36:57,896
I mean, it's just an ordinary
van parked in an ordinary street.
583
00:36:57,920 --> 00:36:59,936
Why give it the time of day?
584
00:36:59,960 --> 00:37:02,936
A registration check proved suspicious.
585
00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:07,160
Yes, but you only found that out
after you stopped to investigate.
586
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,736
It was an idling MPV parked
adjacent to a bookmakers.
587
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:14,656
The driver wasn't reading a newspaper
588
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:16,496
or messing about on his phone.
589
00:37:16,520 --> 00:37:18,536
His eyes were fixed on the bookies.
590
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:21,736
- He was alert for a quick getaway.
- Oh.
591
00:37:21,760 --> 00:37:25,376
And you deduced all that
in the fraction of a second?
592
00:37:25,400 --> 00:37:27,736
Call it a police officer's instinct.
593
00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:31,274
Oh, yes, we all get those from
time to time, DCI Davidson.
594
00:37:31,303 --> 00:37:33,016
I might be getting one right now.
595
00:37:33,509 --> 00:37:35,365
DC Bishop.
596
00:37:35,390 --> 00:37:39,164
We've examined MIT records in
relation to the armed robbery.
597
00:37:39,188 --> 00:37:41,930
Document 12 in your folders
598
00:37:41,969 --> 00:37:44,336
and image 20 on screen.
599
00:37:44,750 --> 00:37:47,094
Image 20 shows the men arrested
600
00:37:47,137 --> 00:37:49,336
in the act of conducting an armed
robbery
601
00:37:49,360 --> 00:37:52,216
of Hickey's Bookmakers on October 27th.
602
00:37:52,240 --> 00:37:55,493
None of these men has a history
of serious or violent crime.
603
00:37:55,544 --> 00:37:57,576
The robbery took place early
in the morning,
604
00:37:57,600 --> 00:37:59,496
when takings would be at their lowest.
605
00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:02,240
So what would you deduce
from these facts, DCI Davidson?
606
00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:05,216
A group of amateur criminals
607
00:38:05,240 --> 00:38:07,976
attempted an armed robbery
in an amateur fashion.
608
00:38:08,790 --> 00:38:10,536
According to Murder Investigation
Team files
609
00:38:10,560 --> 00:38:12,976
lawfully seized on 4th November,
610
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,976
attending the armed robbery
on the morning of 27th October
611
00:38:16,000 --> 00:38:18,776
caused a delay of two hours and 25
minutes to the operation planned
612
00:38:18,800 --> 00:38:21,812
to arrest a suspect using the alias
Ross Turner,
613
00:38:21,836 --> 00:38:25,081
believed to reside at Flat 4F,
Beechwood House, Moss Heath.
614
00:38:25,110 --> 00:38:27,616
This delay was out of
DCI Davidson's control.
615
00:38:27,640 --> 00:38:29,696
One of the armed robbers was shot dead
616
00:38:29,720 --> 00:38:31,696
by an authorised firearms officer.
617
00:38:31,720 --> 00:38:34,896
This necessitated a forensic
deployment and replacement AFOs.
618
00:38:34,920 --> 00:38:38,376
We also understand that an authority
for directed surveillance
619
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:40,976
applied to Beechwood House.
The required authority
620
00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:42,976
should have been for intrusive
surveillance.
621
00:38:43,000 --> 00:38:44,936
As a result, while the matter
was resolved,
622
00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:48,336
surveillance was absent for a period
of three hours and 35 minutes.
623
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:50,616
It needed to be resolved.
624
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:52,856
Any evidence captured
during the wrong authority
625
00:38:52,880 --> 00:38:54,372
would have been inadmissible.
626
00:38:54,396 --> 00:38:55,820
Well,
maybe it would have been a good idea
627
00:38:55,844 --> 00:38:58,840
to get the right authority in
the first place, wouldn't you say?
628
00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,736
The error in assigning the
wrong surveillance authority
629
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:05,360
was committed by a senior officer.
630
00:39:07,040 --> 00:39:08,640
That isn't in the file.
631
00:39:09,720 --> 00:39:11,840
I chose not to embarrass him.
632
00:39:13,000 --> 00:39:16,907
Look, DCI Davidson, we are charged here
633
00:39:16,958 --> 00:39:18,950
with investigating serious crimes,
634
00:39:18,993 --> 00:39:22,336
not least the murder of a young
woman in the prime of her life.
635
00:39:23,290 --> 00:39:27,456
And I expect all policemen and women
to uphold their duty to the public
636
00:39:27,480 --> 00:39:32,416
above any misguided loyalty they may
have to their fellow officers.
637
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:34,800
Now, who was the senior officer?
638
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:38,480
No comment, sir.
639
00:39:40,680 --> 00:39:44,296
DI Arnott, will you bookmark
that for the DIR?
640
00:39:44,562 --> 00:39:46,418
Failure to comply.
641
00:39:46,645 --> 00:39:47,965
Sir.
642
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:54,696
DC Bishop.
643
00:39:55,462 --> 00:39:57,238
Image 29 on screen.
644
00:39:57,262 --> 00:40:00,038
Please refer to document 15
in your folders,
645
00:40:00,062 --> 00:40:04,079
a copy of an arrest report lawfully
seized on 4th of November.
646
00:40:04,112 --> 00:40:08,125
Said arrest report describes
the arrest on 27th October
647
00:40:08,149 --> 00:40:10,558
at Flat 4F Beechwood House
648
00:40:10,582 --> 00:40:13,102
of a person later identified
as Terry Boyle,
649
00:40:13,153 --> 00:40:15,180
shown on the right in image 29.
650
00:40:15,206 --> 00:40:16,836
Also detected at the property
651
00:40:16,876 --> 00:40:19,641
were fingerprints and DNA deposits
matching Carl Banks,
652
00:40:19,678 --> 00:40:22,235
shown on the left in image 29.
653
00:40:22,259 --> 00:40:24,795
Let's start with Terry Boyle.
654
00:40:24,819 --> 00:40:27,915
According to files lawfully seized
on November 4th,
655
00:40:27,939 --> 00:40:29,635
a covert human intelligence source
656
00:40:29,659 --> 00:40:31,595
submitted information to his handler,
657
00:40:31,619 --> 00:40:34,875
which was communicated to the Murder
Investigation Team via phone call
658
00:40:34,899 --> 00:40:38,595
at 23.21 on 26th October.
659
00:40:38,619 --> 00:40:41,715
The CHIS claimed a person
using the name Ross Turner
660
00:40:41,739 --> 00:40:44,675
had confessed to the murder
of Gail Vella.
661
00:40:44,699 --> 00:40:46,649
Terry Boyle's semen was detected
662
00:40:46,696 --> 00:40:49,435
on images of Gail Vella found
in his permanent residence,
663
00:40:49,459 --> 00:40:52,355
which is located a short
distance from Gail Vella's home.
664
00:40:52,379 --> 00:40:53,875
Also detected at the property
665
00:40:53,899 --> 00:40:56,515
were chemical traces of heroin
and cocaine,
666
00:40:56,539 --> 00:41:00,315
and on an item of outer clothing
particles of gunshot residue.
667
00:41:00,339 --> 00:41:02,795
Incriminating evidence.
668
00:41:02,819 --> 00:41:05,555
Gail Vella's Peugeot 108
was intercepted.
669
00:41:05,579 --> 00:41:07,355
As Miss Vella got out of the vehicle,
670
00:41:07,379 --> 00:41:09,035
she was murdered with a single gunshot
671
00:41:09,059 --> 00:41:10,795
carried out using a hard contact method
672
00:41:10,819 --> 00:41:12,395
in which the muzzle of the pistol
673
00:41:12,419 --> 00:41:14,715
was forced against the back
of Miss Vella's head.
674
00:41:14,739 --> 00:41:17,075
Now, this technique confines
noise and gunshot powder.
675
00:41:17,099 --> 00:41:20,195
The murderer successfully evaded
all neighbourhood security cameras.
676
00:41:20,510 --> 00:41:22,755
These findings strongly suggest
a contract killing
677
00:41:22,779 --> 00:41:24,910
of the type ordered by organised crime.
678
00:41:25,539 --> 00:41:27,595
Terry Boyle has no criminal record,
679
00:41:27,990 --> 00:41:29,635
no known association with organised
crime,
680
00:41:29,659 --> 00:41:32,435
and suffers from learning
difficulties which raise doubts
681
00:41:32,459 --> 00:41:35,955
regarding his capacity to commit
a cold-blooded assassination.
682
00:41:36,830 --> 00:41:38,795
The finding of images of Gail Vella
683
00:41:38,819 --> 00:41:41,755
suggested Boyle was an obsessed fan.
684
00:41:41,779 --> 00:41:44,955
While the hard contact technique
is associated with contract killing,
685
00:41:44,979 --> 00:41:46,755
it's not exclusive.
686
00:41:46,779 --> 00:41:49,915
There's no physical reason
an amateur couldn't do the same.
687
00:41:49,939 --> 00:41:53,115
The particles of gunshot residue
also link Boyle to the crime.
688
00:41:53,139 --> 00:41:55,155
They're below the threshold
amount you'd expect
689
00:41:55,179 --> 00:41:56,595
if Boyle had been holding the gun.
690
00:41:56,619 --> 00:41:59,795
Then add in the total lack of blood
spatter, there's not even a spot.
691
00:41:59,819 --> 00:42:01,715
That's correct, DI Arnott.
692
00:42:01,739 --> 00:42:04,235
We suspect the coat was
cross-contaminated
693
00:42:04,259 --> 00:42:06,649
from Boyle's hands or other clothing,
694
00:42:06,673 --> 00:42:09,355
clothing he could have disposed
of after the murder.
695
00:42:09,670 --> 00:42:12,035
That's speculation, ma'am.
You've got no evidence.
696
00:42:12,308 --> 00:42:15,188
Which is why I didn't charge him.
697
00:42:21,059 --> 00:42:23,750
Right, let's take a look at this
fellow Carl Banks.
698
00:42:24,739 --> 00:42:28,950
Image 30 on screen. Image 30 shows
Carl Banks's criminal record.
699
00:42:30,059 --> 00:42:32,395
Banks has a long association
with organised crime
700
00:42:32,419 --> 00:42:35,359
and a history of violence,
including firearms offences.
701
00:42:35,384 --> 00:42:38,275
He fits the profile of a
contract killer.
702
00:42:38,299 --> 00:42:41,835
To use your words, DI Arnott,
that's speculation.
703
00:42:42,310 --> 00:42:44,755
Also, there's the question of motive.
704
00:42:44,779 --> 00:42:48,075
Terry Boyle fits the profile
of an obsessed fan.
705
00:42:48,099 --> 00:42:49,955
We've never been able to identify
a motive
706
00:42:49,979 --> 00:42:52,035
for a contract killing
against Gail Vella.
707
00:42:52,059 --> 00:42:55,995
There's the possibility Vella
was working on an explosive story.
708
00:42:56,019 --> 00:42:58,435
Not only was she executed,
her research was stolen.
709
00:42:58,863 --> 00:43:02,235
A desktop and laptop computer
recovered from the property
710
00:43:02,259 --> 00:43:04,955
and recently re-examined bear no
fingerprints
711
00:43:04,979 --> 00:43:07,035
or DNA deposits matching Gail Vella.
712
00:43:07,059 --> 00:43:10,110
We believe these items were planted
to conceal a burglary.
713
00:43:11,979 --> 00:43:13,792
That's not in our files.
714
00:43:13,816 --> 00:43:15,715
No, but it's in ours.
715
00:43:15,739 --> 00:43:18,475
We're detectives, too, you know,
in case you hadn't noticed.
716
00:43:18,499 --> 00:43:22,235
DCI Davidson has led an exemplary
inquiry.
717
00:43:22,259 --> 00:43:23,915
If you've got new information,
718
00:43:23,939 --> 00:43:26,995
you should share it with
the Murder Investigation Team.
719
00:43:27,019 --> 00:43:28,235
According to your files,
720
00:43:28,259 --> 00:43:30,555
fingerprints and DNA deposits
matching Banks
721
00:43:30,579 --> 00:43:31,955
detected at Beechwood House
722
00:43:31,979 --> 00:43:34,515
were far more numerous
than those matching Boyle,
723
00:43:34,539 --> 00:43:36,835
suggesting Banks was
the primary resident,
724
00:43:36,859 --> 00:43:39,635
and also detected at Beechwood House
were signs of forced entry.
725
00:43:40,350 --> 00:43:43,795
Image 37 on screen is
from Carl Banks's postmortem.
726
00:43:43,819 --> 00:43:47,595
Document 21 in your folders
is a copy of the postmortem report.
727
00:43:47,619 --> 00:43:51,275
According to said postmortem
report, the pathologist concluded
728
00:43:51,299 --> 00:43:53,635
Carl Banks died from exsanguination
729
00:43:53,659 --> 00:43:55,795
due to a deep laceration to the neck,
730
00:43:55,819 --> 00:43:57,795
most likely inflicted by a knife.
731
00:43:57,819 --> 00:44:00,995
Also detected on Banks's body
were lacerations and bruising
732
00:44:01,019 --> 00:44:03,155
caused by heavy blunt trauma
to the head,
733
00:44:03,179 --> 00:44:04,915
facial lacerations and bruising,
734
00:44:04,939 --> 00:44:08,195
and lesions on both wrists
consistent with ligature restraints.
735
00:44:08,219 --> 00:44:11,719
All these injuries were caused some
time before his death,
736
00:44:11,743 --> 00:44:15,475
and time of death was put at
on or around 27th October.
737
00:44:15,499 --> 00:44:20,355
So, what we have here is a forced
entry into Carl Banks's flat,
738
00:44:20,379 --> 00:44:23,435
Banks beaten unconscious,
his hands tied and,
739
00:44:23,459 --> 00:44:25,395
some time later, his throat cut.
740
00:44:25,419 --> 00:44:28,435
None of this could have occurred
without his arrest being delayed
741
00:44:28,459 --> 00:44:30,115
and the surveillance being absent.
742
00:44:30,139 --> 00:44:32,995
Now, call me suspicious,
DCI Davidson, but it seems to me
743
00:44:33,019 --> 00:44:34,565
that somebody got wind
744
00:44:34,589 --> 00:44:36,995
that Banks was shooting his mouth
off about Vella's murder
745
00:44:37,019 --> 00:44:39,315
and they decided to murder him
to stop him talking.
746
00:44:39,339 --> 00:44:41,393
Not only that, but they knew
747
00:44:41,870 --> 00:44:44,235
that your team was on course
to arrest him.
748
00:44:44,259 --> 00:44:46,555
They knew the route you were taking.
749
00:44:46,579 --> 00:44:49,115
And to top it all, they knew
the surveillance was absent,
750
00:44:49,139 --> 00:44:51,355
so that meant they could walk in there,
751
00:44:51,379 --> 00:44:55,190
drag Banks out
and substitute him with Terry Boyle.
752
00:44:55,214 --> 00:44:57,675
And none of this,
none of this could have happened
753
00:44:57,699 --> 00:45:01,475
without you, and you alone, spotting
that van outside the bookies
754
00:45:01,499 --> 00:45:04,035
and deciding for some reason
I cannot fathom
755
00:45:04,059 --> 00:45:07,075
that it warranted investigation.
756
00:45:07,099 --> 00:45:10,510
Sir, all this is circumstantial.
757
00:45:10,899 --> 00:45:13,995
There's no evidence to support
anyone knowing any details
758
00:45:14,019 --> 00:45:15,715
of Operation Lighthouse.
759
00:45:15,739 --> 00:45:19,475
Evidence? We'll give you evidence.
DC Bishop.
760
00:45:19,499 --> 00:45:24,515
Image 41. Image 41 shows
item reference AR-6,
761
00:45:24,539 --> 00:45:28,355
a knife that was detected in
the vicinity of Carl Banks's body.
762
00:45:28,379 --> 00:45:30,195
Yeah, the killer, he didn't even bother
763
00:45:30,219 --> 00:45:31,795
to throw the knife into the canal.
764
00:45:31,819 --> 00:45:34,475
I mean, he left it lying around
for the search team to find.
765
00:45:34,499 --> 00:45:36,115
That was handy, wasn't it?
766
00:45:36,139 --> 00:45:38,035
Criminals make mistakes.
767
00:45:38,059 --> 00:45:39,579
That's how we catch them.
768
00:45:40,659 --> 00:45:45,910
I could say exactly the same,
DCI Davidson, exactly the same.
769
00:45:46,579 --> 00:45:49,035
Please refer to document 23
in your folders,
770
00:45:49,059 --> 00:45:52,475
a copy of a forensic report on item
reference AR-6.
771
00:45:52,790 --> 00:45:56,475
Blood detected on AR-6 was subjected
to DNA analysis.
772
00:45:56,499 --> 00:45:59,515
The DNA harvested from blood cells
on AR-6
773
00:45:59,539 --> 00:46:03,195
match with 99.9% probability
DNA from Carl Banks.
774
00:46:03,710 --> 00:46:06,475
Fingerprints on AR-6 match
with 99.9% probability
775
00:46:06,499 --> 00:46:09,555
fingerprints belonging
to Alastair Oldroyd.
776
00:46:09,579 --> 00:46:12,195
Alastair Oldroyd was the CHIS
who submitted the original Intel
777
00:46:12,219 --> 00:46:14,395
that Banks had confessed
to Vella's murder.
778
00:46:14,419 --> 00:46:17,235
So, for some reason, Alastair Oldroyd,
779
00:46:17,259 --> 00:46:21,170
no history of violent crime,
kills Banks.
780
00:46:21,209 --> 00:46:24,435
The evidence proves Oldroyd
handled the murder weapon.
781
00:46:24,459 --> 00:46:27,395
We suspect Banks had been
threatening Oldroyd.
782
00:46:27,419 --> 00:46:30,355
Are you trying to kid us that
Alastair Oldroyd went in there,
783
00:46:30,379 --> 00:46:32,555
beat Banks unconscious,
dragged him out of the fla...?
784
00:46:32,579 --> 00:46:34,779
He was ten stone wringing wet!
785
00:46:36,219 --> 00:46:40,555
And that's not the half of it,
not by a long chalk. DI Arnott.
786
00:46:41,115 --> 00:46:43,732
Document 31. According to your files,
787
00:46:43,785 --> 00:46:46,177
Oldroyd was found dead on 29th October
788
00:46:46,209 --> 00:46:49,035
from a fall from the derelict
Chapel Place Car Park.
789
00:46:49,059 --> 00:46:50,475
According to said files,
790
00:46:50,499 --> 00:46:53,115
due to the lack of witnesses
and security cameras,
791
00:46:53,139 --> 00:46:56,355
it's impossible to determine
if Oldroyd jumped or he was pushed.
792
00:46:56,830 --> 00:46:59,715
Our hypothesis is that Oldroyd
killed Banks,
793
00:46:59,739 --> 00:47:01,395
then committed suicide.
794
00:47:01,419 --> 00:47:03,155
Yeah, your hypothesis.
795
00:47:03,179 --> 00:47:04,635
So there we have it,
796
00:47:04,659 --> 00:47:08,036
a series of suspicious deaths
797
00:47:08,060 --> 00:47:11,915
that conveniently obliterate a trail
of evidence that might lead us
798
00:47:11,939 --> 00:47:15,195
to Gail Vella's actual murderer.
And in the meantime,
799
00:47:15,219 --> 00:47:19,315
you have that wee fella Terry Boyle
on police bail.
800
00:47:19,339 --> 00:47:22,510
You have failed to consider
the alternative,
801
00:47:23,179 --> 00:47:27,435
that Carl Banks murdered Gail Vella
on the orders of organised crime,
802
00:47:28,030 --> 00:47:32,075
that organised criminals murdered
Carl Banks for his silence,
803
00:47:32,550 --> 00:47:37,355
and that organised criminals framed
Alastair Oldroyd for Banks's murder
804
00:47:37,379 --> 00:47:41,395
and then staged Oldroyd's murder
to look like a suicide.
805
00:47:41,419 --> 00:47:43,595
Of course I've considered
alternatives...
806
00:47:43,619 --> 00:47:46,826
And none of this, none of this would
have happened
807
00:47:46,860 --> 00:47:49,591
without crucial information
on police activities
808
00:47:49,615 --> 00:47:52,259
being leaked to organised crime.
809
00:47:58,259 --> 00:47:59,419
I agree.
810
00:48:04,899 --> 00:48:06,075
Excuse me?
811
00:48:06,591 --> 00:48:08,231
I agree, sir.
812
00:48:10,019 --> 00:48:12,875
If your theory is correct, the only
way it could have worked
813
00:48:12,899 --> 00:48:15,155
would have been for a corrupt
officer from my team
814
00:48:15,179 --> 00:48:18,459
to have leaked
key information to organised crime.
815
00:48:20,739 --> 00:48:24,474
Well, as I'm sure you're aware of,
DCI Davidson,
816
00:48:24,498 --> 00:48:27,715
there's really only
one way we're going to find out.
817
00:48:27,739 --> 00:48:30,385
DCI Joanne Davidson,
you do not have to say anything,
818
00:48:30,420 --> 00:48:32,715
but it may harm your defence if
you do not mention when questioned
819
00:48:32,739 --> 00:48:34,835
something you later rely on in court.
820
00:48:34,859 --> 00:48:37,115
Anything you do say
may be used in evidence.
821
00:48:37,139 --> 00:48:40,475
DCI Davidson, did you leak information
822
00:48:40,499 --> 00:48:43,035
on your team's operations?
823
00:48:43,059 --> 00:48:45,195
No, sir, I did not.
824
00:48:45,219 --> 00:48:47,635
Do you know of anyone who did leak
information?
825
00:48:47,659 --> 00:48:50,195
No, sir, I do not.
826
00:48:50,219 --> 00:48:53,515
I'd ask if you've examined
my communications history.
827
00:48:53,539 --> 00:48:54,915
As per anti-corruption powers,
828
00:48:54,939 --> 00:48:57,275
we've been able to access
your work calls and e-mails.
829
00:48:57,299 --> 00:48:59,675
Any evidence that I've been
communicating with an OCG?
830
00:48:59,699 --> 00:49:01,612
No, ma'am. However, we all recognise
831
00:49:01,638 --> 00:49:03,675
that such communication is
typically carried out
832
00:49:03,699 --> 00:49:05,555
by unregistered so-called burner phones.
833
00:49:05,579 --> 00:49:07,635
I don't have a burner phone.
834
00:49:07,659 --> 00:49:09,955
Search my address, search my car.
835
00:49:09,979 --> 00:49:11,675
We will, ma'am.
836
00:49:12,206 --> 00:49:13,246
Fine.
837
00:49:15,779 --> 00:49:17,035
Are we done, sir?
838
00:49:17,059 --> 00:49:19,588
No, DCI Davidson, we are not done here.
839
00:49:19,623 --> 00:49:21,185
I'm not happy with some of the answers
840
00:49:21,209 --> 00:49:22,755
you've given in this interview today.
841
00:49:23,310 --> 00:49:26,275
Specifically, I'm concerned
about three unanswered questions.
842
00:49:26,299 --> 00:49:28,871
One, your possible collusion
843
00:49:28,896 --> 00:49:31,795
in diverting and delaying
Carl Banks's arrest.
844
00:49:31,819 --> 00:49:34,021
Two, your possible collusion
845
00:49:34,045 --> 00:49:37,675
in the failure to maintain constant
surveillance on Carl Banks's flat.
846
00:49:37,699 --> 00:49:41,395
And three, your possible
collusion in leaking information
847
00:49:41,419 --> 00:49:44,635
regarding items one and two.
848
00:49:44,659 --> 00:49:46,195
And so, therefore, DCI Davidson,
849
00:49:46,219 --> 00:49:49,435
I'm going to arrest you on suspicion
of perverting the course of justice.
850
00:49:49,459 --> 00:49:51,715
DCI Davidson strenuously denies the
allegations...
851
00:49:51,739 --> 00:49:53,195
You will be held here
852
00:49:53,219 --> 00:49:56,275
until we can find a suitable
police custody cell.
853
00:49:56,299 --> 00:50:00,179
Interview terminated at 11.22.
854
00:50:01,339 --> 00:50:02,739
Wait.
855
00:50:05,579 --> 00:50:09,515
An OCG needed time to plan the
robbery and the abduction of Banks.
856
00:50:09,950 --> 00:50:12,235
If I was SIO on this,
the first thing I'd want to know
857
00:50:12,259 --> 00:50:15,755
is who knew about Banks's confession
early enough.
858
00:50:15,779 --> 00:50:18,315
In order, that's the CHIS handler,
859
00:50:18,339 --> 00:50:22,315
then my officers who received
his call, PS Jatri and DS Lomax,
860
00:50:22,339 --> 00:50:26,459
then me, then my boss,
Detective Superintendent Buckells.
861
00:50:27,739 --> 00:50:31,310
If you're going to search my home,
I'd suggest you search theirs too.
862
00:50:50,739 --> 00:50:53,035
Do you understand how much work I've
got to do?
863
00:50:53,059 --> 00:50:54,995
When the Chief Super phones up
864
00:50:55,019 --> 00:50:56,886
and asks what's going on
with Lighthouse, right,
865
00:50:56,927 --> 00:50:58,939
- what am I going to tell him?
- Cheers, guys.
866
00:50:58,963 --> 00:51:00,505
Oh, about bloody time.
867
00:51:00,544 --> 00:51:02,201
You want to tell me what the hell's
going on?
868
00:51:02,237 --> 00:51:03,635
Detective Superintendent Buckells,
869
00:51:03,659 --> 00:51:06,435
in connection with our lawful
inquiry into Operation Lighthouse,
870
00:51:06,459 --> 00:51:09,355
we have received authority to
examine the communications activity
871
00:51:09,379 --> 00:51:12,091
- of certain named officers.
- Is this a piss-take or what?
872
00:51:12,143 --> 00:51:14,475
Sir, your work and personal
communications records
873
00:51:14,499 --> 00:51:15,955
are currently being scrutinised.
874
00:51:15,979 --> 00:51:18,675
Furthermore, we have received
authority to carry out a search
875
00:51:18,699 --> 00:51:21,299
of your vehicle and your home
under warrant powers.
876
00:51:23,579 --> 00:51:27,030
This is a joke, a total pigging joke.
877
00:51:28,299 --> 00:51:29,955
Well, yeah, I'll tell you what,
878
00:51:29,979 --> 00:51:32,675
when you find my stash of jazz mags,
feel free to knock one out.
879
00:51:33,518 --> 00:51:35,430
Thank you for your cooperation, sir.
880
00:51:51,699 --> 00:51:52,935
DI Arnott.
881
00:51:52,967 --> 00:51:55,810
It's Chloe, sir. Look, I'm at the search
882
00:51:55,834 --> 00:51:57,835
and the FIs have found
a cache of burner phones.
883
00:51:57,859 --> 00:51:59,475
Where? Davidson's?
884
00:51:59,499 --> 00:52:01,795
No, Officer J's.
885
00:52:02,256 --> 00:52:04,096
At Farida's.
886
00:52:04,699 --> 00:52:06,075
On my way.
887
00:52:14,219 --> 00:52:17,955
For the DIR, I'm showing PS Jatri
item reference CB-4.
888
00:52:17,979 --> 00:52:20,195
CB-4 is an unregistered mobile phone
889
00:52:20,219 --> 00:52:23,790
detected during a lawful search
of 29 Stalton Drive.
890
00:52:24,659 --> 00:52:26,675
Do you recognise this phone?
891
00:52:26,699 --> 00:52:27,739
No.
892
00:52:29,699 --> 00:52:33,068
For the DIR, I'm showing PS Jatri
image 76.
893
00:52:33,112 --> 00:52:35,974
Image 76 shows a cache of similar
devices
894
00:52:35,998 --> 00:52:39,665
detected during said lawful
search of 29 Stalton Drive.
895
00:52:39,690 --> 00:52:42,706
How do you account for these devices
being found hidden in your home?
896
00:52:42,730 --> 00:52:44,825
They've been put there!
I don't know anything about them.
897
00:52:44,849 --> 00:52:46,794
All these devices bear DNA deposits
898
00:52:46,818 --> 00:52:48,341
matching your elimination samples.
899
00:52:48,365 --> 00:52:51,177
I've never even seen them
before, let alone touched them!
900
00:52:51,201 --> 00:52:53,857
Examination of mobile phone CB-4
901
00:52:53,881 --> 00:52:58,017
reveals calls made in the early
hours of October 27th
902
00:52:58,041 --> 00:52:59,457
to an unidentified number.
903
00:52:59,910 --> 00:53:02,692
The timing of these calls
coincides exactly
904
00:53:02,716 --> 00:53:04,474
with the first intelligence report
905
00:53:04,498 --> 00:53:07,224
of a suspect claiming to have
murdered Gail Vella.
906
00:53:08,078 --> 00:53:10,021
Did you pass on confidential information
907
00:53:10,064 --> 00:53:11,833
on the operation to arrest this suspect?
908
00:53:11,858 --> 00:53:14,858
No, no! I had nothing to do with it!
909
00:53:17,233 --> 00:53:19,849
Farida Jatri, I have been
in consultation
910
00:53:19,873 --> 00:53:21,529
with the Crown Prosecutor
911
00:53:21,553 --> 00:53:24,232
and she has authorised me to charge
you with the following offences...
912
00:53:24,278 --> 00:53:26,873
- I'm being framed!
- Who's framing you?
913
00:53:28,406 --> 00:53:30,206
Who are you claiming is framing you?
914
00:53:34,673 --> 00:53:36,409
It's Jo, it's Jo Davidson.
915
00:53:36,433 --> 00:53:38,329
She planted those phones.
916
00:53:38,353 --> 00:53:40,593
You're claiming she broke
into your house?
917
00:53:41,953 --> 00:53:43,353
She didn't have to break in.
918
00:53:44,539 --> 00:53:45,899
What do you mean by that?
919
00:53:48,093 --> 00:53:49,510
She lived there with me.
920
00:53:51,933 --> 00:53:55,149
We searched DCI Davidson's home
address. It appeared lived in.
921
00:53:55,393 --> 00:53:58,369
Yeah, she has her own place, she
just keeps overnight stuff at mine.
922
00:53:58,393 --> 00:54:00,889
We found no items belonging
to another person.
923
00:54:00,913 --> 00:54:02,353
She moved out.
924
00:54:07,324 --> 00:54:11,524
Are you able to disclose to us
the nature of this relationship?
925
00:54:19,113 --> 00:54:20,513
She was lying to me.
926
00:54:21,748 --> 00:54:23,804
She lied and lied.
927
00:54:24,178 --> 00:54:26,194
That's the kind of person she is.
928
00:54:26,219 --> 00:54:28,379
None of you know what she's like.
929
00:54:38,033 --> 00:54:40,369
God give me strength,
I don't know who to believe.
930
00:54:40,393 --> 00:54:43,209
Well, now it seems possible Farida
made allegations about Davidson
931
00:54:43,233 --> 00:54:46,052
for personal reasons. But the stuff
we've found since then...
932
00:54:46,091 --> 00:54:49,009
Isn't enough. Not yet, anyway.
933
00:54:52,675 --> 00:54:54,435
Superintendent Hastings.
934
00:54:55,510 --> 00:54:57,710
Release DCI Davidson.
935
00:55:04,311 --> 00:55:06,351
Why won't anyone believe me?
936
00:55:22,181 --> 00:55:25,310
- Thanks, I'm fine from here.
- Ma'am.
937
00:55:41,749 --> 00:55:45,229
- Where to, ma'am?
- I need to pick up my car.
938
00:55:47,006 --> 00:55:49,342
I don't know if they've told you
about PS Jatri...
939
00:55:49,951 --> 00:55:52,471
That's what happens to a rat.
