Excellent post again,Martin,,and I understand how this works too. The police/NHS is a closed shop,which where genuine mistakes are made,,nobody is ever likely to hold their hands up and admit it.
As Wilf explained,,it's the fear of loss of job/pension,,which would inevitably be the case. When something goes on as long as the JB case has,,they're even less likely to come forward even if those concerned have retired,,,and usually,on the rare occasion that someone has opened up about " mistakes made ",,you'll find that that person has had an axe to grind about a certain colleague.
These people will have happily retired on their pensions,,paid off mortgages,etc etc,,,and because they're no longer involved,,can,and will quite easily forget that because of mistakes made,and bad ones at that,,,shrug off the fact that it no longer affects them.
What sort of a person can live with themselves,,knowing, at the back of their minds that they have wronged someone,badly and stolen their lives ?
Answer ? As in last nights programme.Someone in a high position,,who treads on everyones' toes to get where they are-------------Those with psychopathic tendencies ! Surgeons, and Police, at the top of their game. Ruthless individuals,decision-makers who are NOT always right,,but whatever you do,,don't suggest anything's wrong,,or argue with them,,as they're" always" right !
It's going to be a hard road in which to get justice for Jeremy,,faced with individuals who are convincing to many,,but thankfully most will see right through their tactics of covering up. The wording of excuses given, and if you're adept at reading between lines,,you can see for yourself,,,such as the replies from EP and even the e-mail from Theresa May,,to me was BS. NOBODY wants to know.It's as simple as that.
