Lexis®Library update: Director of legal services at the CPS, Sue Hemming, acknowledges the devastation caused by the events and the work of the CPS, in collaboration with the Independent Office for Police Conduct, to determine whether there was enough evidence to bring prosecutions. However, after careful consideration, the CPS has decided not to appeal the ruling. Hemming also notes that the detail of the hearing may be surprising to many, yet stresses that regular contact has been maintained with bereaved families and their disappointment is understood.
