1
00:00:10,170 --> 00:00:12,130
Before Danny died, he
tried to say something.

2
00:00:12,170 --> 00:00:14,130
Now I reckon what he said was "list".

3
00:00:14,170 --> 00:00:16,710
Got a firearm in here, no-one enter.

4
00:00:17,870 --> 00:00:20,830
Investigating former Chief
Superintendant Patrick Fairbank

5
00:00:20,870 --> 00:00:22,930
in respect of not adequately investigating

6
00:00:22,970 --> 00:00:25,530
complaints of child sexual exploitation.

7
00:00:25,570 --> 00:00:28,810
The things they did to us at Sands View...

8
00:00:28,870 --> 00:00:30,310
It's OK.

9
00:00:30,370 --> 00:00:33,810
Ma'am, I'm requesting authorisation
on an undercover operation.

10
00:00:33,870 --> 00:00:36,750
It would be against a
fellow AC-12 officer.

11
00:00:38,370 --> 00:00:39,830
DI Cottan set me up.

12
00:00:39,870 --> 00:00:42,830
As far as the rope goes, he must
have planted it there beforehand.

13
00:00:42,870 --> 00:00:45,830
What happened with the postmortem?
Weren't you supposed to organise it?

14
00:00:45,870 --> 00:00:48,830
He knew forensics hadn't
bothered testing the envelope.

15
00:00:48,870 --> 00:00:52,270
I don't want to get caught
between you and DI Cottan.

16
00:00:54,870 --> 00:00:56,830
The Caddy is male, under 35.

17
00:00:56,870 --> 00:01:00,810
A detective, a London
or South East accent.

18
00:01:00,870 --> 00:01:04,870
Sorry, gaffer, but the finger
is pointing at one of our own.

19
00:01:07,270 --> 00:01:09,230
I have a number of concerns regarding

20
00:01:09,270 --> 00:01:11,230
DS Arnott's professional conduct.

21
00:01:11,270 --> 00:01:13,230
He's been bearing a
firearm around the office.

22
00:01:13,270 --> 00:01:16,210
I have signed the firearm back in.

23
00:01:16,270 --> 00:01:19,210
I am innocent, the question is... are you?

24
00:01:19,270 --> 00:01:22,230
He's been accused of having
an improper relationship

25
00:01:22,270 --> 00:01:24,230
with a suspect, of planting
evidence against said suspect.

26
00:01:24,270 --> 00:01:26,230
I did not plant evidence!

27
00:01:26,270 --> 00:01:28,230
We agree the best course
of action is for you to be

28
00:01:28,270 --> 00:01:31,270
suspended from duty until
these matters can be addressed.

29
00:01:35,270 --> 00:01:38,270
SIM Card? It's all in there.

30
00:01:41,270 --> 00:01:45,270
The incriminating item I've got
on you, that's my only insurance.

31
00:01:48,270 --> 00:01:51,210
I need to know you've
got my back. God, yeah.

32
00:01:51,250 --> 00:01:52,230
He's hiding summat.

33
00:01:52,270 --> 00:01:56,210
That lead on Steve, it looks
like it's going to pan out.

34
00:01:56,270 --> 00:01:59,210
He really did plant that money on Lindsay.

35
00:01:59,270 --> 00:02:01,230
There's no list here, Steve.

36
00:02:01,270 --> 00:02:04,670
If there's not, Lindsay is
going to get what's coming.

37
00:02:06,270 --> 00:02:09,230
'I thought it was Steve's car,
until I saw the registration.'

38
00:02:09,270 --> 00:02:11,230
I found Danny Waldron's list.

39
00:02:11,270 --> 00:02:13,230
It didn't make sense for
Danny to make a hard copy

40
00:02:13,270 --> 00:02:16,230
of the original list that
could be lost or destroyed.

41
00:02:16,270 --> 00:02:18,230
He would make an online copy.

42
00:02:18,270 --> 00:02:21,210
The VIPs who were abusing
boys at Sands View.

43
00:02:26,270 --> 00:02:29,270
100 grand and you forget about
all of this, that list included.

44
00:02:30,270 --> 00:02:34,270
Why don't you just take the money?
Because I'm a police officer!

45
00:02:38,270 --> 00:02:43,210
Do not send that message. Let's
see what they will think...

46
00:02:43,270 --> 00:02:45,410
when I bring in The Caddy.

47
00:02:59,270 --> 00:03:01,610
How long is this going to take?

48
00:03:08,230 --> 00:03:09,230
Patrick Fairbank,

49
00:03:09,270 --> 00:03:12,230
some new information has come to
light that we'd like to put to you.

50
00:03:12,270 --> 00:03:14,210
PC Bindra.

51
00:03:14,270 --> 00:03:18,210
Document 27 is a transcript
of a professional tribunal

52
00:03:18,270 --> 00:03:21,230
which took place on the
19th of September 1998,

53
00:03:21,270 --> 00:03:24,210
in which Oliver Stephens-Lloyd recorded

54
00:03:24,270 --> 00:03:26,230
he had submitted a list of
names of abusers at Sands View.

55
00:03:26,270 --> 00:03:30,210
Oh, not this list again.

56
00:03:30,270 --> 00:03:32,870
I don't know anything about any list.

57
00:03:34,270 --> 00:03:37,270
Where is this new information?

58
00:03:41,270 --> 00:03:43,270
I think we're done.

59
00:03:46,270 --> 00:03:49,230
Actually, if you would just
keep your seat, please.

60
00:03:49,270 --> 00:03:52,270
I think we are about to hear
some new evidence, thank you.

61
00:03:58,270 --> 00:04:01,270
For the tape, DC Fleming
has joined the interview.

62
00:04:03,230 --> 00:04:04,230
Kate.

63
00:04:04,270 --> 00:04:07,230
For the tape, I am showing the
interviewee a video capture,

64
00:04:07,270 --> 00:04:10,210
item KMF-4.

65
00:04:10,270 --> 00:04:12,410
Who is shown in item KMF-4?

66
00:04:13,270 --> 00:04:16,230
I refused to take part in
any video identification.

67
00:04:16,270 --> 00:04:18,230
You did, which meant we were forced to use

68
00:04:18,270 --> 00:04:20,230
a video capture from
your previous interview.

69
00:04:20,270 --> 00:04:23,210
And we are legally
entitled to use this image

70
00:04:23,270 --> 00:04:25,230
because your client was
notified that he was going to be

71
00:04:25,270 --> 00:04:30,210
questioned regarding an offence
— misconduct in public office.

72
00:04:30,270 --> 00:04:33,210
In accordance with paragraph five, Code D

73
00:04:33,270 --> 00:04:36,230
of the Police and Criminal
Evidence Act, item KMF-4,

74
00:04:36,270 --> 00:04:39,210
alongside eight other video captures

75
00:04:39,270 --> 00:04:41,230
of unrelated, similar persons were shown

76
00:04:41,270 --> 00:04:44,230
by an officer independent
of this inquiry to a witness

77
00:04:44,270 --> 00:04:48,210
who was a resident at Sands
View Boys' Home in the 1990s.

78
00:04:48,270 --> 00:04:52,210
This witness identified KMF-4
as showing one of the men

79
00:04:52,270 --> 00:04:54,270
who sexually abused him.

80
00:04:57,270 --> 00:05:01,210
These politicians and celebrities,
they couldn't have got away with

81
00:05:01,270 --> 00:05:06,210
this time and time again without
the collusion of police officers.

82
00:05:06,270 --> 00:05:09,230
I mean, I kept asking
myself over and over again,

83
00:05:09,270 --> 00:05:12,210
how could they turn a blind eye,

84
00:05:12,270 --> 00:05:16,210
how could they allow these appalling
things to happen to these children?

85
00:05:16,270 --> 00:05:19,210
And of course, the
answer is as plain as day.

86
00:05:19,270 --> 00:05:22,270
They didn't turn a blind
eye, they were in on it!

87
00:05:31,270 --> 00:05:33,270
I'm going to take this.

88
00:05:45,270 --> 00:05:47,410
This is a list of abusers.

89
00:05:49,270 --> 00:05:53,170
Corroborating the names we've
already heard from our witness.

90
00:05:53,270 --> 00:05:56,270
Ronan Murphy, Linus Murphy...

91
00:05:59,270 --> 00:06:02,270
Dale Roach, Tommy Hunter...

92
00:06:04,270 --> 00:06:06,270
and Patrick Fairbank.

93
00:06:11,270 --> 00:06:15,210
Patrick Fairbank, I am arresting
you for aggravated indecent assault,

94
00:06:15,270 --> 00:06:19,270
in that this offence occurred
before May the 1st 2004...

95
00:06:21,270 --> 00:06:24,210
with a child or children...

96
00:06:24,270 --> 00:06:26,210
under the age of 13...

97
00:06:27,270 --> 00:06:32,270
perverting the course of justice
and misconduct in public office.

98
00:06:43,270 --> 00:06:44,470
Sir.

99
00:06:47,270 --> 00:06:49,270
Well done.

100
00:06:50,270 --> 00:06:52,150
Well done, yourself.

101
00:07:05,270 --> 00:07:07,670
Custody arranged at Polk Avenue.

102
00:07:10,270 --> 00:07:12,210
You think you got me?

103
00:07:12,270 --> 00:07:15,230
You haven't got a clue. I
hope you like the outdoors

104
00:07:15,270 --> 00:07:18,210
because you are going
to be directing traffic

105
00:07:18,270 --> 00:07:21,270
to the end of your sad little career.

106
00:08:05,270 --> 00:08:07,210
Bitch.

107
00:08:07,270 --> 00:08:11,270
'This is Lindsay Denton. Please
leave a message after the tone.'

108
00:08:23,270 --> 00:08:25,270
Shit!

109
00:08:28,270 --> 00:08:33,210
DS Arnott. Need to report the
theft of my service vehicle. Taxi!

110
00:08:33,270 --> 00:08:37,270
Yeah, 5... 5 Kings Gate Apartments. Yeah.

111
00:08:44,270 --> 00:08:47,270
DS Arnott. I need the key
to Lindsay Denton's room.

112
00:09:42,270 --> 00:09:43,870
Mother of God.

113
00:09:58,270 --> 00:10:02,230
'This is Lindsay Denton. Please
leave a message after the tone.'

114
00:10:02,270 --> 00:10:06,470
I know you nicked my pocketbook,
and I don't know where you are...

115
00:10:11,270 --> 00:10:14,210
Police! Armed police!

116
00:10:14,270 --> 00:10:16,230
I'm AC-12! Don't move! I'm AC-12!

117
00:10:16,270 --> 00:10:20,210
You! Keep your hands above
your head. Down on your knees.

118
00:10:20,270 --> 00:10:23,230
Just calm down, I'm police.
Stop talking and stay still!

119
00:10:23,270 --> 00:10:25,230
My ID's in my jacket, I'm AC-12.

120
00:10:25,270 --> 00:10:28,210
Stop talking and stay still!

121
00:10:28,270 --> 00:10:29,950
Lose the phone.

122
00:10:35,270 --> 00:10:38,210
Get everyone out. All right, everyone out!

123
00:10:38,270 --> 00:10:40,070
Got the wrong guy.

124
00:10:44,270 --> 00:10:45,950
All clear, sir!

125
00:10:52,270 --> 00:10:54,270
Dot?

126
00:10:56,270 --> 00:10:58,230
Steven Arnott, I'm arresting you

127
00:10:58,270 --> 00:11:00,230
on suspicion of murdering Lindsay Denton.

128
00:11:00,270 --> 00:11:01,230
You do not have to say anything

129
00:11:01,270 --> 00:11:04,230
but it may harm your defence if you
do not mention, when questioned,

130
00:11:04,270 --> 00:11:06,230
something you later rely on in court.

131
00:11:06,270 --> 00:11:09,210
Anything you do say may
be used in evidence.

132
00:11:09,270 --> 00:11:12,230
What's going on? You know. Keep your
mouth shut till you get a lawyer.

133
00:11:12,270 --> 00:11:15,150
I'm trying to do you a
favour. Get him out.

134
00:11:41,270 --> 00:11:45,210
DI Cottan, DS Arnott. You all
right to book him in for me?

135
00:11:45,270 --> 00:11:47,230
Need to take his clothes for forensics

136
00:11:47,270 --> 00:11:49,230
before he goes in his cell.

137
00:11:49,270 --> 00:11:52,230
Steven Arnott, I'm satisfied
that your arrest is lawful.

138
00:11:52,270 --> 00:11:56,210
I'm authorising your detention in
this police station in order that we

139
00:11:56,270 --> 00:11:59,230
can secure and preserve evidence
in this investigation, and to obtain

140
00:11:59,270 --> 00:12:03,210
evidence from you by questioning.
I will also speak to an inspector

141
00:12:03,270 --> 00:12:06,230
to authorise you being held
incommunicado at this time,

142
00:12:06,270 --> 00:12:08,230
delaying your right to have
anyone told you're here,

143
00:12:08,270 --> 00:12:10,270
or to make any calls.

144
00:12:12,270 --> 00:12:14,070
Do you understand?

145
00:12:17,270 --> 00:12:20,230
DS Arnott, can you account
for your whereabouts between

146
00:12:20,270 --> 00:12:23,270
0800 and 1200 hours on
July 17th this year?

147
00:12:25,270 --> 00:12:27,210
I was at home.

148
00:12:27,270 --> 00:12:30,230
This would be your home address
— Flat 5, Kings Gate Apartments?

149
00:12:30,270 --> 00:12:32,210
Yes.

150
00:12:32,270 --> 00:12:34,270
Who were you with?

151
00:12:36,270 --> 00:12:38,670
Between those hours I was alone.

152
00:12:39,270 --> 00:12:42,230
And your girlfriend, DS
Samantha Railston, where was she?

153
00:12:42,270 --> 00:12:45,210
Sam left early for work.

154
00:12:45,270 --> 00:12:47,210
Around 0630.

155
00:12:47,270 --> 00:12:50,230
I was alone in the flat
but I made phone calls.

156
00:12:50,270 --> 00:12:52,410
They'll prove where I was.

157
00:12:54,270 --> 00:12:56,230
Document 3 in your folders.

158
00:12:56,270 --> 00:13:00,210
Document 3 is a photocopy
of item reference ASJ-3,

159
00:13:00,270 --> 00:13:08,210
telecommunications record for
mobile phone 07591152425,

160
00:13:08,270 --> 00:13:10,230
registered to Steven Arnott.

161
00:13:10,270 --> 00:13:12,210
Three calls are shown.

162
00:13:12,270 --> 00:13:15,570
Can you tell us what was
happening with these calls?

163
00:13:17,270 --> 00:13:21,210
I'd realised Lindsay had
stolen my pocketbook.

164
00:13:21,270 --> 00:13:24,230
I called her from my flat, but
it went straight to her voicemail.

165
00:13:24,270 --> 00:13:27,230
I went to her approved premises
to try and track her down

166
00:13:27,270 --> 00:13:30,230
but she wasn't there, so I
tried calling her again.

167
00:13:30,270 --> 00:13:32,230
And the call to the AC-12 switchboard?

168
00:13:32,270 --> 00:13:36,270
To report the theft of my
service vehicle. Thank you.

169
00:13:39,270 --> 00:13:42,270
When was the last time you
saw Lindsay Denton alive?

170
00:13:43,270 --> 00:13:46,210
The night before. My flat.

171
00:13:46,270 --> 00:13:49,210
Lindsay had a theory
that Danny Waldron left

172
00:13:49,270 --> 00:13:51,230
a list of abusers in a graveyard.

173
00:13:51,270 --> 00:13:53,230
We were searching online
burial records for a name that

174
00:13:53,270 --> 00:13:56,230
might have been a memorable
association for Danny.

175
00:13:56,270 --> 00:13:59,230
She left my flat and I went
to the graveyard alone.

176
00:13:59,270 --> 00:14:02,230
Must have been while she was in my
flat that she took my pocketbook.

177
00:14:02,270 --> 00:14:05,230
At this time, myself and DI
Cottan were carrying out direct

178
00:14:05,270 --> 00:14:07,230
surveillance on Steve Arnott's flat,

179
00:14:07,270 --> 00:14:09,230
authorised by Superintendant Hastings,

180
00:14:09,270 --> 00:14:13,210
under the Regulation of
Investigatory Powers Act 2000.

181
00:14:13,250 --> 00:14:14,230
Noted.

182
00:14:14,270 --> 00:14:16,230
We saw you and Lindsay split up.

183
00:14:16,270 --> 00:14:19,230
And after you'd left, she looked
like the cat who'd got the cream.

184
00:14:19,270 --> 00:14:22,230
She sent you off on a wild
goose chase while she went

185
00:14:22,270 --> 00:14:27,210
and cracked the case. Cos, actually,
Danny had hidden the list online.

186
00:14:27,270 --> 00:14:31,210
She found the list? She did indeed.

187
00:14:31,270 --> 00:14:33,230
You gotta hand it to her,
she got the job done.

188
00:14:33,270 --> 00:14:35,670
And she made a total mug of you.

189
00:14:37,270 --> 00:14:39,230
Now, these phone calls
we've been talking about,

190
00:14:39,270 --> 00:14:41,230
they're all around noon onwards.

191
00:14:41,270 --> 00:14:45,270
None of them corroborate you being
in your flat before that time.

192
00:14:46,270 --> 00:14:49,210
The proprietor of the internet caff,

193
00:14:49,270 --> 00:14:53,210
now, she reckons she saw Denton
leave around... 11, 11.30.

194
00:14:53,270 --> 00:14:56,230
She didn't see where
Denton went or who she met,

195
00:14:56,270 --> 00:14:58,230
and we've no information
on her whereabouts

196
00:14:58,270 --> 00:15:01,210
until her body was discovered at 12.30.

197
00:15:01,270 --> 00:15:03,230
But you were at home all this time?

198
00:15:03,270 --> 00:15:06,270
Yes, sir. So what were
you doing all this time?

199
00:15:10,270 --> 00:15:13,210
DS Arnott? I slept.

200
00:15:13,270 --> 00:15:15,230
You had a kip? Seriously?

201
00:15:15,270 --> 00:15:17,230
I'd been up most of the night.

202
00:15:17,270 --> 00:15:19,230
You didn't think of
calling her straightaway?

203
00:15:19,270 --> 00:15:21,210
No, sir.

204
00:15:21,270 --> 00:15:23,230
She'd sent you to this
graveyard on a fool's errand,

205
00:15:23,270 --> 00:15:25,230
stolen your pocketbook.

206
00:15:25,270 --> 00:15:27,230
I'd have been after her like a shot.

207
00:15:27,270 --> 00:15:31,270
You, you're stuck to your sofa
watching Homes Under The Hammer.

208
00:15:34,270 --> 00:15:35,950
I got home late.

209
00:15:37,270 --> 00:15:40,210
Sam, my girlfriend, and I — we had a row.

210
00:15:40,270 --> 00:15:44,210
I had some wine and I fell
asleep on the sofa. I overslept.

211
00:15:44,270 --> 00:15:47,230
As soon as I realised my
pocketbook was gone, I took action.

212
00:15:47,270 --> 00:15:50,230
Still, you were sorely pissed
off with her, weren't you?

213
00:15:50,270 --> 00:15:53,230
DS Arnott is simply stating
the facts. Oh, right.

214
00:15:53,270 --> 00:15:56,210
So you weren't pissed off with her?

215
00:15:56,270 --> 00:15:58,230
In the early hours of the 17th,

216
00:15:58,270 --> 00:16:01,230
I followed Mr Arnott to the
graveyard of St Barnabas Church.

217
00:16:01,270 --> 00:16:03,210
In which he stated,

218
00:16:03,270 --> 00:16:05,230
"If there's no list here

219
00:16:05,270 --> 00:16:08,210
"then Lindsay's going
to get what's coming."

220
00:16:08,270 --> 00:16:12,210
Can you tell us what you
meant by those words?

221
00:16:12,270 --> 00:16:13,810
I was angry.

222
00:16:15,270 --> 00:16:17,230
Angry with Kate. Angry with Lindsay.

223
00:16:17,270 --> 00:16:19,230
I didn't MEAN anything.

224
00:16:19,270 --> 00:16:21,230
But you do admit that you
were angry with Lindsay?

225
00:16:21,270 --> 00:16:23,230
Those words go way beyond angry.

226
00:16:23,270 --> 00:16:25,270
I didn't kill Lindsay.

227
00:16:27,270 --> 00:16:29,230
At her trial, Lindsay testified that

228
00:16:29,270 --> 00:16:32,210
there was a sexual
relationship between you.

229
00:16:32,270 --> 00:16:35,230
The relevant section for the
transcript is document 46.

230
00:16:35,270 --> 00:16:38,210
I don't need a transcript
— she was lying.

231
00:16:38,250 --> 00:16:39,230
Data retrieval from Lindsay's mobile

232
00:16:39,270 --> 00:16:42,210
resulted in detection
of the following file —

233
00:16:42,270 --> 00:16:46,210
item reference MKJ-32.

234
00:16:46,270 --> 00:16:49,270
For the tape, I will now play MKJ-32.

235
00:16:51,270 --> 00:16:53,230
'Is that OK?'

236
00:16:55,270 --> 00:16:56,550
'Yeah.'

237
00:17:02,270 --> 00:17:03,670
'You OK?'

238
00:17:04,270 --> 00:17:06,230
'Yeah.'

239
00:17:13,270 --> 00:17:16,230
You recognise the voices
on this audio file?

240
00:17:18,270 --> 00:17:22,270
Me and Lindsay. And can you tell
us where the recording was made?

241
00:17:23,270 --> 00:17:25,210
In her bedroom.

242
00:17:25,270 --> 00:17:29,270
And were you aware at the time
that this recording was being made?

243
00:17:30,270 --> 00:17:34,210
No, sir, I was not. As DS Arnott
didn't give his permission,

244
00:17:34,250 --> 00:17:35,230
the recording was illegal.

245
00:17:35,270 --> 00:17:40,210
Still... it's not a nice thing
to do to someone, though.

246
00:17:40,270 --> 00:17:43,230
Just another thing she did to put
a few more winds on your clock, eh?

247
00:17:43,270 --> 00:17:48,210
Time and time again you
denied any impropriety.

248
00:17:48,270 --> 00:17:50,230
What you can't know is that
we're both almost fully clothed

249
00:17:50,270 --> 00:17:53,230
and the file's been abridged.
If you'd had the opportunity

250
00:17:53,270 --> 00:17:55,230
to continue listening you'd have heard

251
00:17:55,270 --> 00:17:59,270
that we stopped through
mutual consent. Stopped? What?

252
00:18:02,270 --> 00:18:05,270
There was some kissing. Some touching.

253
00:18:06,270 --> 00:18:10,210
Lindsay became upset and I comforted
her. Sir, I give you my word,

254
00:18:10,270 --> 00:18:13,210
Lindsay Denton and I did not have sex.

255
00:18:13,270 --> 00:18:15,210
Your word.

256
00:18:15,270 --> 00:18:17,230
Whatever your version
is of that audio file,

257
00:18:17,270 --> 00:18:20,230
it sounds like you pair went
way beyond the professional.

258
00:18:20,270 --> 00:18:23,230
And then she used it to
discredit your case against her.

259
00:18:23,270 --> 00:18:26,230
Now, I don't know many blokes who
wouldn't be angry about that.

260
00:18:26,270 --> 00:18:30,210
And thanks to her accusations
you are suspended, your career

261
00:18:30,270 --> 00:18:32,150
potentially in ruins.

262
00:18:35,270 --> 00:18:38,210
Now, for the tape — on screen is image 5.

263
00:18:38,270 --> 00:18:42,210
Image 5 is a crime scene photograph
taken at 12.45 on July 17th,

264
00:18:42,270 --> 00:18:45,210
showing the body of Lindsay Denton.

265
00:18:45,270 --> 00:18:47,210
Image 8.

266
00:18:47,270 --> 00:18:50,230
That's my car. Image 8 is a crime
scene photograph showing the vehicle

267
00:18:50,270 --> 00:18:53,210
in which Lindsay Denton's body was found.

268
00:18:53,270 --> 00:18:56,210
It's a dark grey Volvo S60.

269
00:18:56,270 --> 00:18:58,270
You agree it's your car?

270
00:19:00,270 --> 00:19:04,210
As I've said, sir, I
reported my vehicle stolen.

271
00:19:04,270 --> 00:19:06,230
Document 6 in your folders.

272
00:19:06,270 --> 00:19:11,210
Document 6 is a photocopy
of item reference IKL-1.

273
00:19:11,270 --> 00:19:15,210
IKL-1 is the log for service vehicles.

274
00:19:15,270 --> 00:19:19,210
On July 1st you signed out service
vehicle Foxtrot Juliet 1-4 Romeo

275
00:19:19,270 --> 00:19:22,230
Charlie Zulu, and it was
never signed back in.

276
00:19:22,270 --> 00:19:25,210
You should've. The
second you were suspended.

277
00:19:25,270 --> 00:19:27,230
It's a perk of the job. Didn't
want to give up the motor.

278
00:19:27,270 --> 00:19:31,210
So, it's a matter of fact that
this vehicle was in your possession

279
00:19:31,270 --> 00:19:34,230
at the time of the murder. The fact,
sir, is someone stole the vehicle.

280
00:19:34,270 --> 00:19:36,670
And you reported it stolen when?

281
00:19:37,270 --> 00:19:41,210
In the call made to the
AC-12 switchboard at 11.59.

282
00:19:41,270 --> 00:19:43,230
Yeah, but Lindsay was last seen
alive up to an hour earlier.

283
00:19:43,270 --> 00:19:46,230
At the internet caff. Now, that is
plenty of time for you to get home

284
00:19:46,270 --> 00:19:49,230
and report your car stolen. I reported
the theft as soon as I realised.

285
00:19:49,270 --> 00:19:51,870
The car must have been stolen earlier.

286
00:19:54,270 --> 00:19:55,550
I see.

287
00:19:57,270 --> 00:20:00,230
Document 7 is a copy of the
pathologist's report following

288
00:20:00,270 --> 00:20:03,210
a postmortem examination
of Lindsay Denton.

289
00:20:03,270 --> 00:20:07,210
The cause of death was a single
gunshot wound to the head.

290
00:20:07,270 --> 00:20:13,210
Image 6. Image 6 is a forensic
photograph of item reference NJC-4.

291
00:20:13,270 --> 00:20:16,230
Item NJC-4 is a bullet found
lodged in the passenger-side trim

292
00:20:16,270 --> 00:20:21,210
of service vehicle Foxtrot
Juliet 1-4 Romeo Charlie Zulu.

293
00:20:21,270 --> 00:20:26,210
NJC-4 has been identified as
a 9x19mm Parabellum round.

294
00:20:26,270 --> 00:20:28,210
Image 13.

295
00:20:28,270 --> 00:20:31,210
Image 13 shows item reference SCS-9.

296
00:20:31,270 --> 00:20:35,210
SCS-9 is a service-issue
firearm, Glock 17 pistol,

297
00:20:35,270 --> 00:20:40,210
serial number — November
Mike 8-4-9-4-7-4-8.

298
00:20:40,270 --> 00:20:43,230
The Glock 17 was found a short
distance from the vehicle

299
00:20:43,270 --> 00:20:47,210
containing the body of Lindsay Denton.

300
00:20:47,270 --> 00:20:49,230
Document 11 in your
folders — also on screen.

301
00:20:49,270 --> 00:20:53,210
Document 11 is the firearms issue
log from South Ferry armoury.

302
00:20:53,270 --> 00:20:57,210
You'll see a highlighted entry
on the morning of July 13th,

303
00:20:57,270 --> 00:21:03,210
relating to said Glock 17, serial
number November Mike 8-4-9-4-7-4-8.

304
00:21:03,270 --> 00:21:05,230
Said firearm was never returned.

305
00:21:05,270 --> 00:21:09,210
No. I returned my firearm a few
days before Lindsay was murdered.

306
00:21:09,270 --> 00:21:12,210
Not according to these records. No. No.

307
00:21:12,270 --> 00:21:15,230
I returned it. Ask them at the
armoury, they'll confirm it.

308
00:21:15,270 --> 00:21:18,210
It's here in black and white, son.

309
00:21:18,270 --> 00:21:21,270
You always follow the regs
when it comes to firearms?

310
00:21:23,270 --> 00:21:26,230
DS Arnott was seen bearing a firearm
within this building that did not,

311
00:21:26,270 --> 00:21:30,210
in my view, meet satisfactory
operational requirement.

312
00:21:30,270 --> 00:21:34,210
On July 13th I gave DS Arnott
a verbal warning that he was

313
00:21:34,270 --> 00:21:37,270
in breach of Section 7
of the 1968 Firearms Act.

314
00:21:41,270 --> 00:21:44,230
What forensics do you have
linking me to the crime scene?

315
00:21:44,270 --> 00:21:47,210
Your car, your gun —
I'd say that's plenty.

316
00:21:47,270 --> 00:21:49,230
Were my fingerprints on the gun?

317
00:21:49,270 --> 00:21:52,230
There were no fingerprints
found on the firearm at all.

318
00:21:52,270 --> 00:21:55,230
It appeared to have been
wiped. Right. So no prints.

319
00:21:55,270 --> 00:21:57,230
Lindsay Denton was shot at close range.

320
00:21:57,270 --> 00:22:01,210
The vehicle interior shows a
substantial blood spatter pattern.

321
00:22:01,270 --> 00:22:04,210
Did you find blood particles on me?

322
00:22:04,270 --> 00:22:08,210
At the time of Steve Arnott's arrest, his
clothing was seized for forensic examination.

323
00:22:08,270 --> 00:22:11,230
There were no traces of blood
or gunshot residue detected.

324
00:22:11,270 --> 00:22:13,230
Yeah, but anyone with half
a brain, covered in blood

325
00:22:13,270 --> 00:22:16,230
and gunshot residue, would know
to dispose of his clothing.

326
00:22:16,270 --> 00:22:18,230
So where's this clothing? You tell us.

327
00:22:18,270 --> 00:22:21,210
Why would I shoot Lindsay in my own car?

328
00:22:21,270 --> 00:22:23,230
I know the forensics would be
totally incriminating. Correct.

329
00:22:23,270 --> 00:22:25,230
They are. So I wouldn't have done it!

330
00:22:25,270 --> 00:22:27,230
You were at the end of your
tether with Lindsay Denton.

331
00:22:27,270 --> 00:22:30,230
She betrayed you, manipulated
you, deceived you and, finally,

332
00:22:30,270 --> 00:22:32,230
she discredited you. You
weren't thinking straight!

333
00:22:32,270 --> 00:22:35,230
So I used my service-issue
firearm that I left at the scene?

334
00:22:35,270 --> 00:22:39,210
And I used my registered service
vehicle? I mean, that's just stupid!

335
00:22:39,270 --> 00:22:41,230
You panicked. You left
your bullet and the casing

336
00:22:41,270 --> 00:22:43,230
and you didn't do a good
enough job disposing of the gun.

337
00:22:43,270 --> 00:22:46,230
Then you cobble together some story
about your motor being nicked.

338
00:22:46,270 --> 00:22:48,230
In fact, the only thing
you didn't make a hash of

339
00:22:48,270 --> 00:22:50,230
was the bloodstained clothing.

340
00:22:50,270 --> 00:22:52,350
That's not what happened.

341
00:22:56,270 --> 00:23:01,210
Image 22 shows item reference EDC-3,
found in said service vehicle.

342
00:23:01,270 --> 00:23:03,230
Can you tell us what item EDC-3 is?

343
00:23:03,270 --> 00:23:05,210
My pocketbook.

344
00:23:05,270 --> 00:23:07,230
And is that the one stolen
by Lindsay? Yes, sir.

345
00:23:07,270 --> 00:23:11,210
So you went after her to get it
back... things got out of hand

346
00:23:11,270 --> 00:23:14,230
and in your panic you didn't
even remember to take it.

347
00:23:14,270 --> 00:23:16,230
I didn't take it because I wasn't there!

348
00:23:16,270 --> 00:23:20,210
So you've said. Is there anyone
— anyone — that we can talk to

349
00:23:20,270 --> 00:23:22,230
who will bear witness to
the fact you were at home

350
00:23:22,270 --> 00:23:25,270
during the time of
Lindsay Denton's murder?

351
00:23:30,270 --> 00:23:34,210
I had my issues with Lindsay
Denton, I can't deny that.

352
00:23:34,270 --> 00:23:37,010
But I wouldn't kill her. So you've said.

353
00:23:39,270 --> 00:23:42,210
I didn't have that gun.

354
00:23:42,270 --> 00:23:45,270
So if I didn't return it, why
didn't anyone try and recover it?

355
00:23:47,270 --> 00:23:50,270
DS Arnott's asked a
very important question.

356
00:23:53,270 --> 00:23:56,230
Yes, well, I admit there was
a failure to do due diligence

357
00:23:56,270 --> 00:23:58,230
on the part of the officers
at South Ferry armoury,

358
00:23:58,270 --> 00:24:00,230
but I've written to the
Strategic Firearms Commander

359
00:24:00,270 --> 00:24:03,230
making my feelings on the
matter abundantly clear

360
00:24:03,270 --> 00:24:05,230
and I can assure you,
disciplinary action...

361
00:24:05,270 --> 00:24:08,230
No-one realised because I
HAD returned the firearm!

362
00:24:08,270 --> 00:24:11,230
Someone must have access to the
booking-out forms and replaced

363
00:24:11,270 --> 00:24:14,230
the real one — the one showing
I surrendered the gun —

364
00:24:14,270 --> 00:24:17,230
with a forgery. Yeah, but this same
someone would had to have signed out

365
00:24:17,270 --> 00:24:19,230
the same gun that was
used in the murder —

366
00:24:19,270 --> 00:24:21,230
and where's the record of
that? It's the same thing,

367
00:24:21,270 --> 00:24:24,230
sir — stolen so no-one can
track who's got the weapon.

368
00:24:24,270 --> 00:24:25,230
All right, let me get this straight.

369
00:24:25,270 --> 00:24:29,210
What you're saying is that some
impostor acquired the firearm

370
00:24:29,270 --> 00:24:32,230
and then tampered with the paperwork
to cover his tracks. Yes, sir.

371
00:24:32,270 --> 00:24:35,230
Obviously the same person who stole
my service vehicle that morning.

372
00:24:35,270 --> 00:24:37,210
So your defence is,

373
00:24:37,270 --> 00:24:39,230
"It wasn't me, it was
just some random impostor"?

374
00:24:39,270 --> 00:24:40,230
No, not random.

375
00:24:40,270 --> 00:24:44,210
To know it's extremely difficult
to steal a service-issue firearm

376
00:24:44,270 --> 00:24:46,230
but not actually all that
difficult to fake the paperwork —

377
00:24:46,270 --> 00:24:49,230
that takes inside knowledge. This
was done by a police officer.

378
00:24:49,270 --> 00:24:52,230
But apparently it's a piece of cake
to steal a service-issue vehicle

379
00:24:52,270 --> 00:24:56,210
fitted with deadlocks and an immobiliser.

380
00:24:56,270 --> 00:24:59,270
I have to say, this is all
sounding a bit far-fetched, son.

381
00:25:06,270 --> 00:25:09,210
There's a parallel on this case, sir.

382
00:25:09,270 --> 00:25:12,230
Ever since we started
investigating Danny Waldron —

383
00:25:12,270 --> 00:25:15,230
first his shooting of Ronan
Murphy, then Danny's murder —

384
00:25:15,270 --> 00:25:18,230
there have been holes that the
evidence hasn't completely filled,

385
00:25:18,270 --> 00:25:20,230
one of which is the
murder of PC Rod Kennedy.

386
00:25:20,270 --> 00:25:22,230
Sir, this is a massive tangent.

387
00:25:22,270 --> 00:25:25,230
DS Arnott knows we have to charge or
release and he's playing for time.

388
00:25:25,270 --> 00:25:28,230
Sir, DI Cottan was too quick
to close the investigation

389
00:25:28,270 --> 00:25:31,230
into Kennedy's murder, just like he
was with his inquiry into The Caddy.

390
00:25:31,270 --> 00:25:33,230
He's doing the same thing here.

391
00:25:33,270 --> 00:25:35,230
He's cutting corners, not
challenging evidence robustly,

392
00:25:35,270 --> 00:25:38,210
and I'm the one suffering
for his negligence!

393
00:25:38,270 --> 00:25:41,230
Sir, DS Arnott's casting aspersions
for one reason and one reason only —

394
00:25:41,270 --> 00:25:43,230
to discredit this case,

395
00:25:43,270 --> 00:25:46,230
to get AC-12 taken off the
investigation against him.

396
00:25:46,270 --> 00:25:49,230
It's what these coppers do when you
know you've got 'em bang to rights —

397
00:25:49,270 --> 00:25:52,230
exploit their knowledge of the
system to try and tie us in knots.

398
00:25:52,270 --> 00:25:55,230
Look, I'd be really grateful if
we could just stick to the issue

399
00:25:55,270 --> 00:25:58,270
in hand here, which is the
murder of Lindsay Denton.

400
00:26:01,270 --> 00:26:03,210
Thank you, sir.

401
00:26:03,270 --> 00:26:06,230
Now, with respect to service
vehicle Foxtrot Juliet 1-4 Romeo

402
00:26:06,270 --> 00:26:10,210
Charlie Zulu, a forensic search was
carried out at the crime scene.

403
00:26:10,270 --> 00:26:15,210
Image 43. Interior of
service vehicle boot.

404
00:26:15,270 --> 00:26:20,210
Image 45. Image 45 is
item reference VCT-7.

405
00:26:20,270 --> 00:26:22,230
Do you recognise VCT-7?

406
00:26:22,270 --> 00:26:24,210
My gym bag.

407
00:26:24,250 --> 00:26:25,230
Image 46.

408
00:26:25,270 --> 00:26:28,210
Image 46 shows the contents

409
00:26:28,270 --> 00:26:32,210
of VCT-7 — sports clothing and trainers.

410
00:26:32,270 --> 00:26:35,210
Image 47 — That was not in my bag!

411
00:26:35,270 --> 00:26:39,270
What...? What is going on
here? DS Arnott, please.

412
00:26:41,270 --> 00:26:43,210
Image 47...

413
00:26:43,270 --> 00:26:45,230
shows item reference VCT-9.

414
00:26:45,270 --> 00:26:49,210
VCT-9 is an unregistered
pay-as-you-go mobile phone.

415
00:26:49,270 --> 00:26:51,230
Your phone, DS Arnott? No, sir!

416
00:26:51,270 --> 00:26:53,670
No, sir, someone put that there.

417
00:26:55,270 --> 00:26:59,210
VCT-9 is a phone of the type
reportedly associated with

418
00:26:59,270 --> 00:27:02,230
covert criminal communications.
That is not my phone.

419
00:27:02,270 --> 00:27:04,230
What the hell is it doing in your gym bag?

420
00:27:04,270 --> 00:27:07,230
DS Arnott denies any knowledge
of the phone, there's clearly some

421
00:27:07,270 --> 00:27:10,230
irregularity with the search. My
department carries out its searches

422
00:27:10,270 --> 00:27:12,230
to the letter of the law, fella!

423
00:27:12,270 --> 00:27:14,210
The letter!

424
00:27:14,270 --> 00:27:17,210
Document 19 in your folders.

425
00:27:17,270 --> 00:27:19,210
For the tape,

426
00:27:19,270 --> 00:27:22,230
this is a partial transcript
of Lindsay Denton's retrial.

427
00:27:22,270 --> 00:27:25,230
At Lindsay Denton's first trial
she was convicted of conspiracy

428
00:27:25,270 --> 00:27:28,230
to murder, and the prosecution
hung on crucial evidence

429
00:27:28,270 --> 00:27:32,210
found at her home address, namely
50 grand in cash that was linked

430
00:27:32,270 --> 00:27:36,210
via financial forensics to other
bribes employed in the conspiracy.

431
00:27:36,270 --> 00:27:38,410
I didn't plant that money.

432
00:27:40,230 --> 00:27:41,230
Image 49.

433
00:27:41,270 --> 00:27:45,210
Image 49 shows item reference VCT-11.

434
00:27:45,270 --> 00:27:48,270
Now, VCT-11 is a? 5 note.

435
00:27:49,270 --> 00:27:51,150
Is that your? 5 note?

436
00:27:51,270 --> 00:27:54,210
I don't remember having
any money in the bag.

437
00:27:54,270 --> 00:27:56,230
Not your phone, now it's
not your money either.

438
00:27:56,270 --> 00:27:59,230
I'm saying I don't recall if I
was carrying any money in the bag.

439
00:27:59,270 --> 00:28:01,210
Fair enough.

440
00:28:01,270 --> 00:28:03,230
That was in the inside pocket.

441
00:28:03,270 --> 00:28:06,210
It's only a fiver. It's easy to forget.

442
00:28:06,270 --> 00:28:09,210
We ran forensics on that? 5 note.

443
00:28:09,270 --> 00:28:12,210
Document 20 in your folders.

444
00:28:12,270 --> 00:28:15,210
DC Fleming.

445
00:28:15,270 --> 00:28:17,230
For the tape, I'm
referring to document 20.

446
00:28:17,270 --> 00:28:20,230
Document 20 is a photocopy
of an original report

447
00:28:20,270 --> 00:28:23,210
made by the financial forensics unit.

448
00:28:23,270 --> 00:28:28,210
Report Sierra Alpha/56-57/1-5.

449
00:28:28,270 --> 00:28:30,210
The summary reads —

450
00:28:30,270 --> 00:28:34,210
"Pollen particles detected on
banknote VCT-11 show a close match

451
00:28:34,270 --> 00:28:39,210
"to pollen particles detected
on banknotes AJK-72."

452
00:28:39,270 --> 00:28:42,210
AJK-72 is the item
reference for the? 50,000

453
00:28:42,270 --> 00:28:45,230
found at Lindsay Denton's
home. There is no way!

454
00:28:45,270 --> 00:28:46,230
Look, just...

455
00:28:46,270 --> 00:28:49,230
That is not my money! A second
ago you couldn't even remember.

456
00:28:49,270 --> 00:28:52,230
There is no way that I'd have
money that was from the same source

457
00:28:52,270 --> 00:28:53,230
as Lindsay Denton's bribe!

458
00:28:53,270 --> 00:28:55,230
But Lindsay Denton knew
you planted that evidence,

459
00:28:55,270 --> 00:28:57,230
and she was your most vociferous accuser.

460
00:28:57,270 --> 00:29:00,230
So maybe she was onto this evidence,
too. She wasn't onto any evidence!

461
00:29:00,270 --> 00:29:03,230
She couldn't have known about this!
Oh, right, so you hid it from her?

462
00:29:03,270 --> 00:29:06,230
I didn't mean it like that. That
money would be very hard to come by.

463
00:29:06,270 --> 00:29:09,230
But together with the phone
this indicates a clear

464
00:29:09,270 --> 00:29:12,270
pattern of corrupt conduct. I am not bent!

465
00:29:19,270 --> 00:29:21,230
This is obviously a very...

466
00:29:21,270 --> 00:29:23,230
difficult experience, Steve.

467
00:29:23,270 --> 00:29:27,210
Would you like some time
alone with your solicitor?

468
00:29:27,250 --> 00:29:28,230
No.

469
00:29:28,270 --> 00:29:31,210
Very well, but can we
all just calm down here

470
00:29:31,270 --> 00:29:34,210
and not let our emotions
get the better of us?

471
00:29:34,250 --> 00:29:35,230
Sir.

472
00:29:35,270 --> 00:29:37,210
So, moving on.

473
00:29:37,270 --> 00:29:41,210
In respect of another murder,
that of Sergeant Daniel Waldron,

474
00:29:41,270 --> 00:29:45,210
have you any comment to make?
Waldron was murdered by Hari Bains.

475
00:29:45,270 --> 00:29:48,210
Bains confessed and
intends to plead guilty.

476
00:29:48,270 --> 00:29:51,230
Yeah, well, Bains owed gambling
debts to the wrong people.

477
00:29:51,270 --> 00:29:55,210
And we believe they contracted
him to kill Waldron. Indeed.

478
00:29:55,270 --> 00:29:59,210
Significantly, Bains received a
call the night of the 31st of May

479
00:29:59,270 --> 00:30:03,210
from a phone of the
type found in your car.

480
00:30:03,270 --> 00:30:05,230
Night before he shot and
killed Danny Waldron.

481
00:30:05,270 --> 00:30:08,230
According to Bains, in a
statement made on June 30th,

482
00:30:08,270 --> 00:30:12,270
the caller had a London/South East accent.

483
00:30:15,270 --> 00:30:19,210
So? So, was that you?
London and South East

484
00:30:19,270 --> 00:30:22,230
have such small populations,
it could only have been me(!)

485
00:30:22,270 --> 00:30:24,230
Kindly just answer the
question, please, DS Arnott.

486
00:30:24,270 --> 00:30:27,230
Bains and I met loads of times. He
would have known my voice and been

487
00:30:27,270 --> 00:30:31,210
able to identify, the call was clearly
made by another person unknown.

488
00:30:31,270 --> 00:30:34,230
Yes, and you're familiar with the
putative corrupt police officer

489
00:30:34,270 --> 00:30:36,270
codename The Caddy?

490
00:30:47,270 --> 00:30:48,470
I am.

491
00:30:49,270 --> 00:30:51,270
DI Cottan. Sir.

492
00:30:53,270 --> 00:30:56,230
Assimilation of all credible witness
testimony, based on direct contact

493
00:30:56,270 --> 00:31:00,210
with said individual, leads
to the following profile.

494
00:31:00,270 --> 00:31:02,210
The Caddy is male.

495
00:31:02,270 --> 00:31:05,230
The Caddy is almost certainly
from a working-class background

496
00:31:05,270 --> 00:31:07,230
and grew up in an urban environment.

497
00:31:07,270 --> 00:31:09,210
Is probably under 35.

498
00:31:09,270 --> 00:31:12,210
He is almost certainly a detective.

499
00:31:12,270 --> 00:31:15,230
He's trained in covert operations
such as counterterrorism.

500
00:31:15,270 --> 00:31:18,230
And all earwitnesses report
The Caddy as having a London

501
00:31:18,270 --> 00:31:21,210
or South East accent.

502
00:31:21,270 --> 00:31:23,210
This is insane.

503
00:31:23,270 --> 00:31:26,210
God help me, son, I wish it was. Sir!

504
00:31:26,270 --> 00:31:30,210
That's your evidence? A profile?
We've more than just a profile.

505
00:31:30,270 --> 00:31:33,230
Only The Caddy would have had access
to the same source of bribe money

506
00:31:33,270 --> 00:31:35,230
found at Lindsay Denton's house.

507
00:31:35,270 --> 00:31:38,270
The same supply we found some
of in your service vehicle boot.

508
00:31:51,270 --> 00:31:54,270
Would you like some more time, DS Arnott?

509
00:31:57,270 --> 00:31:59,210
No.

510
00:31:59,270 --> 00:32:02,230
DI Cottan originally volunteered
to investigate The Caddy

511
00:32:02,270 --> 00:32:04,230
and closed the case prematurely,
based on flimsy evidence

512
00:32:04,270 --> 00:32:06,230
provided by an old colleague.

513
00:32:06,270 --> 00:32:08,230
Yes, but we're not here
to discuss DI Cottan.

514
00:32:08,270 --> 00:32:12,210
Sir, he's just looking at some
angles to try and discredit this...

515
00:32:12,270 --> 00:32:15,010
I intend to be heard, sir. On the record.

516
00:32:17,270 --> 00:32:19,550
Very well. That's your right.

517
00:32:23,270 --> 00:32:27,210
DI Cottan, you carried out the
original inquiry into The Caddy.

518
00:32:27,270 --> 00:32:30,230
I did. That wrongly identified
DC Jeremy Cole. Yes.

519
00:32:30,270 --> 00:32:33,230
Based purely on the testimony
of your former colleague,

520
00:32:33,270 --> 00:32:36,230
DC Nigel Morton. Yeah, but Morton
has since revised his statement.

521
00:32:36,270 --> 00:32:40,270
DI Cottan and DC Fleming are
reopening that particular inquiry.

522
00:32:44,270 --> 00:32:47,230
You also failed to order a
second postmortem on the body

523
00:32:47,270 --> 00:32:50,230
of Rod Kennedy. My e-mail
bounced back, as well you know.

524
00:32:50,270 --> 00:32:52,230
Sir, he's clutching at straws here.

525
00:32:52,270 --> 00:32:54,230
In respect of the original
inquiry into the murder

526
00:32:54,270 --> 00:32:57,230
of Sergeant Danny Waldron, you
led a search of Waldron's flat.

527
00:32:57,270 --> 00:32:59,230
I did. And as part of that
search you found an envelope

528
00:32:59,270 --> 00:33:02,230
addressed to me. Yes. And the
forensics that you failed to

529
00:33:02,270 --> 00:33:05,230
carry out on the inside of that
envelope detected traces of ink

530
00:33:05,270 --> 00:33:08,230
and blood, suggesting it contained
a note written by Danny Waldron

531
00:33:08,270 --> 00:33:10,230
and PRESUMABLY intended for me.

532
00:33:10,270 --> 00:33:13,230
No note was ever found. Danny
Waldron saved his list online.

533
00:33:13,270 --> 00:33:16,230
Which we only discovered weeks later
cos you failed to pursue this lead!

534
00:33:16,270 --> 00:33:19,230
I did not. The note had
been in that envelope!

535
00:33:19,270 --> 00:33:21,810
That's not what was in the envelope!

536
00:33:28,270 --> 00:33:31,210
Item reference MRC-1.

537
00:33:31,270 --> 00:33:35,210
Item reference MRC-1 is the envelope
recovered from Danny Waldron's flat.

538
00:33:35,270 --> 00:33:40,210
And for the tape, Mr Arnott is quite
correct — it does bear his name.

539
00:33:40,270 --> 00:33:43,230
Item reference MRC-2 is the
contents of the envelope.

540
00:33:43,270 --> 00:33:46,230
This item was entered
into evidence separately,

541
00:33:46,270 --> 00:33:47,230
for reasons of internal security.

542
00:33:47,270 --> 00:33:50,230
You will see in your folders
document appendix 1 refers to

543
00:33:50,270 --> 00:33:52,210
sequestered evidence.

544
00:33:52,270 --> 00:33:55,230
Sequestration of evidence
authorised by Gill Bigelow,

545
00:33:55,270 --> 00:33:58,270
leading legal council to
Anti-Corruption Unit 12.

546
00:34:04,270 --> 00:34:06,670
This is what was in the envelope.

547
00:34:11,270 --> 00:34:14,230
Now, for the tape, I'm showing Mr
Arnott the sequestered evidence —

548
00:34:14,270 --> 00:34:16,270
a white golf tee.

549
00:34:26,270 --> 00:34:29,210
Steve Arnott.

550
00:34:29,270 --> 00:34:30,670
Golf tee.

551
00:34:32,270 --> 00:34:35,270
I think Danny Waldron was
trying to tell us something.

552
00:34:40,270 --> 00:34:43,270
Have you got anything
further to add, DS Arnott?

553
00:34:47,270 --> 00:34:50,270
For the tape, the interviewee
is shaking his head.

554
00:34:52,270 --> 00:34:54,210
Steven Arnott,

555
00:34:54,270 --> 00:34:57,230
you will remain under arrest for
the murder of Lindsay Denton.

556
00:34:57,270 --> 00:35:00,230
I will now seek guidance from
the Crown Prosecutor as to how

557
00:35:00,270 --> 00:35:02,230
to charge you for said offence.

558
00:35:02,270 --> 00:35:05,210
You will be taken to a place of custody.

559
00:35:05,270 --> 00:35:08,230
If you're not charged within
24 hours of the original arrest

560
00:35:08,270 --> 00:35:11,210
you will be released, however I...

561
00:35:11,270 --> 00:35:14,230
will seek the authority
for a 12-hour extension.

562
00:35:14,270 --> 00:35:16,230
Is all this understood?

563
00:35:16,270 --> 00:35:18,210
Yes, sir.

564
00:35:18,270 --> 00:35:20,270
Interview discontinued.

565
00:35:53,270 --> 00:35:56,270
God help me if I ever get
a good night's sleep again.

566
00:35:58,270 --> 00:36:00,210
DI Cottan...

567
00:36:00,270 --> 00:36:02,230
my office, five minutes.

568
00:36:02,270 --> 00:36:03,470
Sir.

569
00:36:06,270 --> 00:36:08,270
You OK?

570
00:36:11,270 --> 00:36:13,230
That can't have been easy.

571
00:36:13,270 --> 00:36:14,670
Well done.

572
00:36:41,270 --> 00:36:43,270
Sorry.

573
00:36:46,270 --> 00:36:49,230
Just when exactly did you get the
idea of sequestering evidence from me?

574
00:36:49,270 --> 00:36:53,210
Hm? In 35 years, this has been
my worst day in the service,

575
00:36:53,270 --> 00:36:55,230
and now this little incident
just about caps the whole lot!

576
00:36:55,270 --> 00:37:00,210
Was it your idea to go behind
my back or was it yours?

577
00:37:00,270 --> 00:37:04,210
To be fair to DI Cottan, he
sought me out for guidance.

578
00:37:04,270 --> 00:37:07,230
It was my decision to sequester the
evidence from Danny Waldron's flat

579
00:37:07,270 --> 00:37:11,210
because of its sensitive nature
in regard to a fellow officer.

580
00:37:11,270 --> 00:37:14,230
It seemed a bizarre and
possibly meaningless find, sir,

581
00:37:14,270 --> 00:37:18,210
but I just had a feeling... "Feeling"?

582
00:37:18,270 --> 00:37:20,230
that it might alert
Steve. And if it had of done

583
00:37:20,270 --> 00:37:23,230
then we wouldn't have had
all this other evidence.

584
00:37:23,270 --> 00:37:26,230
Oh, yeah, you're on very
thin ice with me, DI Cottan.

585
00:37:26,270 --> 00:37:29,210
Are there any other surprises in store?

586
00:37:29,270 --> 00:37:32,270
I hope not, sir. I hope not, too.

587
00:37:33,270 --> 00:37:35,210
Dismissed!

588
00:37:35,270 --> 00:37:36,470
Sir.

589
00:37:45,270 --> 00:37:48,230
At the time, neither DI Cottan nor I
knew if the golf tee was relevant.

590
00:37:48,270 --> 00:37:52,210
Clearly, recent events have created
a more significant context. Clearly!

591
00:37:52,270 --> 00:37:56,210
I can see you're angry, Ted, but the
fact that you personally recruited

592
00:37:56,270 --> 00:37:58,230
Steve Arnott did weigh on my decision.

593
00:37:58,270 --> 00:38:01,230
What, you decided I was going to be
biased? I'm sorry, but at the time

594
00:38:01,270 --> 00:38:04,230
it felt like the right decision.
Now, can we just calm down?

595
00:38:04,270 --> 00:38:07,270
I am calm! I'm totally bloody calm!

596
00:38:10,270 --> 00:38:13,210
Look, I know this is abysmal timing

597
00:38:13,270 --> 00:38:16,230
but former Chief Superintendant
Patrick Fairbank's legal team

598
00:38:16,270 --> 00:38:19,230
are applying for the child sex
abuse charges to be dropped.

599
00:38:19,270 --> 00:38:20,230
What?

600
00:38:20,270 --> 00:38:23,230
They're saying that he repeatedly
stated in his interviews that,

601
00:38:23,270 --> 00:38:27,210
"I'm not as sharp as I used to
be." Yeah, I know he said that.

602
00:38:27,270 --> 00:38:30,230
They're saying that an independent
physician should have examined

603
00:38:30,270 --> 00:38:33,270
his intellectual fitness for interview.

604
00:38:35,270 --> 00:38:39,210
They're having his GP attest
he's got senile dementia.

605
00:38:39,270 --> 00:38:42,210
He isn't fit to stand trial.

606
00:38:42,270 --> 00:38:43,870
Mother of God.

607
00:38:46,270 --> 00:38:49,230
DS Arnott has to be
charged or released today.

608
00:38:49,270 --> 00:38:52,270
Don't delay your call
to the Crown Prosecutor.

609
00:38:54,230 --> 00:38:55,230
Fine.

610
00:38:55,270 --> 00:38:56,670
Thank you.

611
00:41:01,270 --> 00:41:05,210
Superintendant Hastings for the
Senior Crime Prosecutor, please.

612
00:41:05,250 --> 00:41:06,230
Hastings.

613
00:41:06,270 --> 00:41:08,550
That's right, like the battle.

614
00:41:11,270 --> 00:41:13,270
Come in. Sir.

615
00:41:15,270 --> 00:41:17,750
Anything to avoid making this call.

616
00:41:19,270 --> 00:41:22,230
Listen, sir, before you
call the Crown Prosecutor,

617
00:41:22,270 --> 00:41:25,230
there's some things we need to discuss.

618
00:41:27,270 --> 00:41:30,210
This is a favour to her, not you.

619
00:41:30,270 --> 00:41:32,270
Two minutes.

620
00:41:42,270 --> 00:41:44,150
It's good to see you.

621
00:41:51,270 --> 00:41:53,410
Is there anything I can do?

622
00:41:55,270 --> 00:41:58,210
You can say you don't
believe a word of it.

623
00:41:58,270 --> 00:42:00,210
Of course I don't.

624
00:42:00,270 --> 00:42:02,210
Sam...

625
00:42:02,270 --> 00:42:04,550
My DCI's got me on desk duty.

626
00:42:05,270 --> 00:42:08,230
She asked me outright if
I was in on it with you.

627
00:42:08,270 --> 00:42:10,210
I'm innocent.

628
00:42:10,270 --> 00:42:11,810
Yeah, I know.

629
00:42:16,270 --> 00:42:17,950
Well, you came.

630
00:42:19,270 --> 00:42:20,670
I'm glad.

631
00:42:24,270 --> 00:42:28,210
I'm sorry about the flat being
closed for forensics. It's fine.

632
00:42:28,270 --> 00:42:30,230
I'm at a friend's place.

633
00:42:30,270 --> 00:42:34,270
They've gotta release me in a few
hours, so we can be back in soon.

634
00:42:41,270 --> 00:42:43,270
Steve...

635
00:42:49,270 --> 00:42:51,270
Sorry.

636
00:43:06,270 --> 00:43:10,270
So which one were you looking at?
Which one were you...? That...

637
00:43:14,270 --> 00:43:18,210
You still haven't charged Steve
Arnott. We need more time.

638
00:43:18,270 --> 00:43:20,230
I know it's difficult going
after one of your own...

639
00:43:20,270 --> 00:43:23,210
It's what we do for a living.

640
00:43:23,270 --> 00:43:25,230
DC Fleming has caused me

641
00:43:25,270 --> 00:43:27,230
to want to re-examine the
evidence against Steve Arnott.

642
00:43:27,270 --> 00:43:30,210
Come on, Ted, there's
a mountain of evidence.

643
00:43:30,270 --> 00:43:35,210
His gun. The car. The money. The threat.

644
00:43:35,270 --> 00:43:38,210
Motive, opportunity, means.

645
00:43:38,270 --> 00:43:40,230
During the interview with
Steven Arnott I indentified

646
00:43:40,270 --> 00:43:43,230
a number of issues that
merit further examination.

647
00:43:43,270 --> 00:43:47,210
Of course you want to believe that
Steve's innocent. Of course you do.

648
00:43:47,270 --> 00:43:51,210
But you're jumping to rash and
extremely damaging conclusions.

649
00:43:51,270 --> 00:43:53,210
DC Fleming, please.

650
00:43:53,270 --> 00:43:55,230
Miss Bigelow, you do
not have to say anything

651
00:43:55,270 --> 00:43:58,230
but it may harm your defence
if you do not... Excuse me.

652
00:43:58,270 --> 00:44:01,210
Gill, please, this is necessary.

653
00:44:01,270 --> 00:44:04,230
You do not have to say anything
but it may harm your defence

654
00:44:04,270 --> 00:44:06,230
if you do not mention, when questioned,

655
00:44:06,270 --> 00:44:08,230
something you later rely on in court.

656
00:44:08,270 --> 00:44:10,230
Anything you do say may
be used in evidence.

657
00:44:10,270 --> 00:44:13,230
It's been a long day and
night, let's get a grip, Ted.

658
00:44:13,270 --> 00:44:16,230
Did you furnish Superintendant
Hastings with an intelligence file

659
00:44:16,270 --> 00:44:18,230
relating to Ronan Murphy,

660
00:44:18,270 --> 00:44:21,270
the suspect shot dead by Sergeant
Danny Waldron on the 13th of May?

661
00:44:23,270 --> 00:44:26,210
I did. And from who did
you obtain that file?

662
00:44:26,270 --> 00:44:28,210
"Whom."

663
00:44:28,270 --> 00:44:30,230
It was supplied to me in confidence

664
00:44:30,270 --> 00:44:33,230
and to reveal the source would
be a betrayal of that confidence.

665
00:44:33,270 --> 00:44:35,230
Gill, you're under caution.

666
00:44:35,270 --> 00:44:39,270
It would help us enormously if
you could provide an answer.

667
00:44:47,270 --> 00:44:49,270
Very well. Show her.

668
00:44:51,270 --> 00:44:54,230
This is a signed authority from
Superintendant Summers at AC-3

669
00:44:54,270 --> 00:44:57,230
for me to conduct an undercover
operation against AC-12 officers.

670
00:44:57,270 --> 00:45:00,230
I see what it is. When did this happen?
I only found about this this evening.

671
00:45:00,270 --> 00:45:03,230
Under said authority, I
obtained evidence that this file

672
00:45:03,270 --> 00:45:07,210
originated from DS Nicola
Rogerson at Major Violent Crime.

673
00:45:07,270 --> 00:45:10,230
In a written statement, DS
Rogerson claims that the file was

674
00:45:10,270 --> 00:45:16,210
"requested" by an AC-12 officer.
Did an AC-12 officer furnish you

675
00:45:16,270 --> 00:45:19,010
with this file on condition of anonymity?

676
00:45:20,270 --> 00:45:21,470
Yes.

677
00:45:22,270 --> 00:45:26,210
DS Rogerson's copy of the file
did not contain the omissions

678
00:45:26,270 --> 00:45:28,230
made to the one you received.

679
00:45:28,270 --> 00:45:30,230
I was given that file in good faith

680
00:45:30,270 --> 00:45:33,210
and I completely deny tampering with it.

681
00:45:33,250 --> 00:45:34,230
No-one's suggesting you did.

682
00:45:34,270 --> 00:45:38,210
What we're exploring here
is that the alterations

683
00:45:38,270 --> 00:45:42,210
were made by said AC-12 officer.

684
00:45:42,270 --> 00:45:47,270
Now, can you confirm the name
we've heard from Rogerson?

685
00:45:52,270 --> 00:45:53,470
Fine.

686
00:45:55,270 --> 00:45:58,270
Detective Inspector Matthew Cottan.

687
00:46:01,270 --> 00:46:04,210
He brought you the golf tee...

688
00:46:04,270 --> 00:46:08,210
so we assumed that he would
have brought you file, good.

689
00:46:08,270 --> 00:46:12,270
DC Fleming, would you kindly
excuse us for a moment, please?

690
00:46:16,270 --> 00:46:17,950
Thank you, Kate.

691
00:46:27,270 --> 00:46:29,230
You're barking up the wrong tree.

692
00:46:29,270 --> 00:46:34,210
Matthew Cottan has done a first-rate
job of rooting out a bad apple.

693
00:46:34,270 --> 00:46:37,230
Gill... As for the file, he
knew we were being obstructed,

694
00:46:37,270 --> 00:46:39,230
so he obtained it through
unofficial channels.

695
00:46:39,270 --> 00:46:41,230
Why didn't he just give it to me?

696
00:46:41,270 --> 00:46:43,230
Because he was afraid you'd give him

697
00:46:43,270 --> 00:46:47,210
a dressing-down for
acting improperly. Gill...

698
00:46:47,270 --> 00:46:49,230
even after the time we spent together,

699
00:46:49,270 --> 00:46:53,270
you really don't know me at all.

700
00:47:01,270 --> 00:47:04,230
This is a video capture taken
from a traffic camera situated

701
00:47:04,270 --> 00:47:07,230
on the Kings Gate Expressway showing
traffic at the time indicated

702
00:47:07,270 --> 00:47:09,230
in the top right-hand corner.

703
00:47:09,270 --> 00:47:11,210
9.46. Steve's car.

704
00:47:11,270 --> 00:47:13,470
At first glance, yes, but...

705
00:47:15,230 --> 00:47:16,230
Different reg.

706
00:47:16,270 --> 00:47:19,210
Correct. Here are more
traffic camera images,

707
00:47:19,270 --> 00:47:23,210
this same vehicle captured
travelling through the city centre

708
00:47:23,270 --> 00:47:26,210
on traffic cameras a few minutes apart.

709
00:47:26,270 --> 00:47:29,270
Image enhancement has failed
to show who's driving.

710
00:47:31,230 --> 00:47:32,230
Now, here's a street map.

711
00:47:32,270 --> 00:47:35,230
This street map shows the
locations of the vehicle at times

712
00:47:35,270 --> 00:47:39,210
corresponding to the exact times
of the traffic camera images.

713
00:47:39,270 --> 00:47:42,230
I'm now going to add the location
of the internet cafe where

714
00:47:42,270 --> 00:47:45,270
Lindsay Denton was last
seen alive that morning.

715
00:47:46,270 --> 00:47:50,210
Someone was driving the vehicle to
Lindsay's location that morning.

716
00:47:50,270 --> 00:47:54,210
Yeah. And previous to the internet
cafe, Lindsay Denton was last seen

717
00:47:54,270 --> 00:47:56,230
at her approved premises the night before.

718
00:47:56,270 --> 00:48:00,210
I'm now going to add the location
of the approved premises.

719
00:48:00,270 --> 00:48:03,230
There's an hour's delay in the
timeline of the vehicle's movements,

720
00:48:03,270 --> 00:48:07,210
suggesting it hung around the
approved premises during this time.

721
00:48:07,270 --> 00:48:10,270
So... Lindsay was followed
to the internet cafe.

722
00:48:12,270 --> 00:48:15,230
Looks like it, sir. And
correct me if I'm wrong,

723
00:48:15,270 --> 00:48:18,230
but this is the same time that
Steve said that he was home alone?

724
00:48:18,270 --> 00:48:19,230
Yeah, that's correct, sir.

725
00:48:19,270 --> 00:48:23,210
Steve doesn't have an alibi so it
could be him driving that vehicle.

726
00:48:23,270 --> 00:48:26,210
Hmm. One final thing.

727
00:48:26,270 --> 00:48:28,230
I've indentified this registration

728
00:48:28,270 --> 00:48:32,210
as belonging to another
make and model entirely.

729
00:48:32,270 --> 00:48:34,210
They're fake plates.

730
00:48:34,270 --> 00:48:37,230
Well done. Well done. I think
you'd better get that wee one home,

731
00:48:37,270 --> 00:48:40,270
and thanks very much for coming in.

732
00:48:49,270 --> 00:48:53,210
Why would Steve be driving
his own car with fake plates?

733
00:48:53,270 --> 00:48:56,210
To hide his movements?

734
00:48:56,270 --> 00:48:58,230
It doesn't make sense, sir, she
wouldn't have got in the car.

735
00:48:58,270 --> 00:49:01,230
If Steve turned up with
fake plates she'd have known

736
00:49:01,270 --> 00:49:03,230
he was up to something.
She would never get in.

737
00:49:03,270 --> 00:49:04,230
Or maybe she just didn't see it.

738
00:49:04,270 --> 00:49:08,210
We all know Lindsay, sir, she
never missed a thing. Hm.

739
00:49:08,270 --> 00:49:12,270
Sorry, Kate, you couldn't give us
a hand with the lift? Yeah, sure.

740
00:49:20,270 --> 00:49:22,210
Off the record,

741
00:49:22,270 --> 00:49:25,230
DI Cottan put pressure on me not
to tell Steve about the additional

742
00:49:25,270 --> 00:49:29,270
forensics on the envelope
found in Danny Waldron's flat.

743
00:49:32,270 --> 00:49:33,950
Cheers, Maneet.

744
00:49:53,270 --> 00:49:55,210
He's here, sir. And?

745
00:49:55,270 --> 00:49:57,750
Well, I can't say he's very happy.

746
00:50:10,270 --> 00:50:13,270
DC Morton, would you mind coming with us?

747
00:50:19,270 --> 00:50:21,210
DC Morton.

748
00:50:21,270 --> 00:50:24,230
I'm not coming anywhere
till I get some assurances.

749
00:50:24,270 --> 00:50:27,210
Assurances of what?

750
00:50:27,270 --> 00:50:29,210
Four things.

751
00:50:29,270 --> 00:50:32,270
I-mmu-ni-ty.

752
00:50:34,270 --> 00:50:36,270
Sir.

753
00:50:52,270 --> 00:50:54,270
DI Cottan.

754
00:50:57,270 --> 00:50:59,410
Questions about what, sir?

755
00:51:02,270 --> 00:51:04,670
When do you want to do this, sir?

756
00:51:07,270 --> 00:51:09,470
No. No, I'm happy to assist.

757
00:51:48,270 --> 00:51:49,670
All right.

758
00:51:50,270 --> 00:51:52,270
Let's do this.

759
00:52:05,270 --> 00:52:06,610
Morning.

760
00:52:12,270 --> 00:52:14,210
A word to the wise —

761
00:52:14,270 --> 00:52:17,230
Arnott or Cottan, if either
turns out to be a bad apple,

762
00:52:17,270 --> 00:52:18,230
he's acting alone.

763
00:52:18,270 --> 00:52:21,230
They can't be connected
to any wider conspiracy.

764
00:52:21,270 --> 00:52:23,210
Let's see.

765
00:52:23,270 --> 00:52:25,230
And Patrick Fairbank the same.

766
00:52:25,270 --> 00:52:28,210
We feel his legal team have a strong case,

767
00:52:28,270 --> 00:52:30,230
his dementia precludes a trial.

768
00:52:30,270 --> 00:52:33,230
He might have forgotten some
important details. Exactly.

769
00:52:33,270 --> 00:52:36,210
Or worse still...

770
00:52:36,270 --> 00:52:38,230
he might remember them.

771
00:52:38,270 --> 00:52:40,210
What are you saying?

772
00:52:40,270 --> 00:52:43,230
You see, I finally understand why
you were appointed by the PCC.

773
00:52:43,270 --> 00:52:45,230
I'm the loose cannon here.

774
00:52:45,270 --> 00:52:47,230
If I see a bent copper I'll go after him

775
00:52:47,270 --> 00:52:50,210
irrespective of rank
or political expediency.

776
00:52:50,270 --> 00:52:54,210
I'm not going to apologise
for having one eye on PR.

777
00:52:54,270 --> 00:52:56,230
Anti-corruption is a double-edged sword.

778
00:52:56,270 --> 00:52:59,230
We need to find just enough bent
coppers to avoid accusations of

779
00:52:59,270 --> 00:53:02,230
a cover-up but no so many that
the public starts to wonder

780
00:53:02,270 --> 00:53:04,230
if the police can be trusted.

781
00:53:04,270 --> 00:53:07,230
So we let Patrick Fairbank
just slip through the net?

782
00:53:07,270 --> 00:53:09,230
Because of all the peers
and the politicians

783
00:53:09,270 --> 00:53:11,230
and the police officers
he might implicate?

784
00:53:11,270 --> 00:53:15,210
Meanwhile, we go back to chasing
disc jockeys and game show hosts?

785
00:53:15,270 --> 00:53:17,230
I'm just doing my job. And I'm doing mine.

786
00:53:17,270 --> 00:53:20,230
And it's called nicking
bent coppers and I don't care

787
00:53:20,270 --> 00:53:23,230
whether it's one rotten apple
or the whole bloody barrel.

788
00:53:23,270 --> 00:53:26,230
There's a line and it's
called right and wrong.

789
00:53:26,270 --> 00:53:28,230
And I know which side...

790
00:53:28,270 --> 00:53:30,210
my duty lies.

791
00:53:30,270 --> 00:53:33,230
So why don't you write a nice
letter of resignation to the PCC

792
00:53:33,270 --> 00:53:35,210
or I swear to God...

793
00:53:35,270 --> 00:53:39,270
I will drag you down
with the rest of them.

794
00:54:06,270 --> 00:54:08,230
In last night's interview
of DS Arnott you produced

795
00:54:08,270 --> 00:54:12,210
a piece of evidence —
item reference MRC-2 —

796
00:54:12,270 --> 00:54:16,210
namely the golf tee and the envelope
found at Danny Waldron's flat.

797
00:54:16,270 --> 00:54:19,230
Wonder if you can explain
in a little bit more detail

798
00:54:19,270 --> 00:54:22,210
how you came by this piece of evidence?

799
00:54:22,270 --> 00:54:24,230
I'm not sure I understand
what you're driving at, sir.

800
00:54:24,270 --> 00:54:27,230
Well, there were half a
dozen of you on that search,

801
00:54:27,270 --> 00:54:29,230
how come no-one else saw it?

802
00:54:29,270 --> 00:54:31,230
Did you swear them all to secrecy or what?

803
00:54:31,270 --> 00:54:33,210
Oh, I see, sir.

804
00:54:33,270 --> 00:54:37,210
No, what happened was — we
detected an illegal firearm.

805
00:54:37,270 --> 00:54:40,230
I sent an officer to bring someone
with firearms training urgently,

806
00:54:40,270 --> 00:54:42,230
so as to secure the firearm.

807
00:54:42,270 --> 00:54:46,210
I had the legitimate concern it
wasn't safe or it was booby-trapped

808
00:54:46,270 --> 00:54:51,210
and it was then I saw the
golf tee in the envelope. So...

809
00:54:51,270 --> 00:54:54,210
with no-one else watching you...

810
00:54:54,270 --> 00:54:57,270
you seized this piece
of evidence? Yes, sir.

811
00:55:00,270 --> 00:55:02,230
Did you order forensics on the golf tee?

812
00:55:02,270 --> 00:55:04,230
I did but there were
no noticeable findings.

813
00:55:04,270 --> 00:55:08,210
Did you order forensics on the
inside of the envelope? Yes, sir.

814
00:55:08,270 --> 00:55:12,210
When? Well, this was something
we omitted in the first instance

815
00:55:12,270 --> 00:55:15,210
but rectified as the inquiry progressed.

816
00:55:15,270 --> 00:55:18,230
Did you put pressure on a
junior rank not to disclose

817
00:55:18,270 --> 00:55:20,410
the forensics to DS Arnott?

818
00:55:21,270 --> 00:55:23,210
Yes. Why?

819
00:55:23,270 --> 00:55:25,230
Steve Arnott was concocting accusations

820
00:55:25,270 --> 00:55:27,230
I wasn't doing my job properly.

821
00:55:27,270 --> 00:55:30,230
I didn't want to give him
any ammunition. So...

822
00:55:30,270 --> 00:55:33,230
you actually missed a
crucial piece of evidence.

823
00:55:33,270 --> 00:55:35,270
Well...

824
00:55:36,270 --> 00:55:40,210
Forensics detected ink and blood
on the inside of that envelope.

825
00:55:40,270 --> 00:55:43,210
That suggests there was
a bloodstained note

826
00:55:43,270 --> 00:55:45,230
inside the envelope. There wasn't though.

827
00:55:45,270 --> 00:55:49,210
No ink or blood on the golf tee. So, what?

828
00:55:49,270 --> 00:55:52,230
Danny Waldron must have put it in
there after he removed the note?

829
00:55:52,270 --> 00:55:54,210
Look, this note,

830
00:55:54,270 --> 00:55:57,230
some people have been making
a mountain out of a molehill.

831
00:55:57,270 --> 00:56:00,230
If it was such an issue, why
didn't I just pocket the envelope

832
00:56:00,270 --> 00:56:02,230
and no-one would be any the wiser?

833
00:56:02,270 --> 00:56:05,210
Which I didn't do, by the way.

834
00:56:05,270 --> 00:56:07,230
Maybe the envelope had already
been seen by somebody else

835
00:56:07,270 --> 00:56:10,270
on the search team, but
the contents hadn't.

836
00:56:11,270 --> 00:56:15,210
I found a golf tee. I remained
in the vicinity of the firearm

837
00:56:15,270 --> 00:56:18,210
until an officer arrived to make it safe.

838
00:56:18,270 --> 00:56:21,230
Now, if that note went walkabout,
it's because Danny Waldron moved it

839
00:56:21,270 --> 00:56:24,230
before we got there. In the
end, missing the forensics

840
00:56:24,270 --> 00:56:26,230
made no difference to
the inquiry whatsoever.

841
00:56:26,270 --> 00:56:30,210
That's one of the things we're
here to determine, DI Cottan

842
00:56:30,270 --> 00:56:32,230
and I'll be the judge of that, thank you.

843
00:56:32,270 --> 00:56:34,270
DC Fleming, moving on.

844
00:56:39,270 --> 00:56:44,210
Item reference EGH-1. EGH-1 is an
intelligence file on Ronan Murphy,

845
00:56:44,270 --> 00:56:47,210
the suspect shot dead by Danny Waldron.

846
00:56:47,270 --> 00:56:50,230
It's where this whole inquiry
started, and it omitted information

847
00:56:50,270 --> 00:56:53,230
that would have allowed us to
connect Ronan Murphy to known

848
00:56:53,270 --> 00:56:55,230
high-ranking criminal Tommy Hunter,

849
00:56:55,270 --> 00:56:58,270
and the cover-up of
historic child sexual abuse.

850
00:56:59,270 --> 00:57:03,210
DI Cottan, have you seen
this file before? Yes, sir.

851
00:57:03,270 --> 00:57:06,230
And who provided you
with access to this file?

852
00:57:06,270 --> 00:57:08,210
You did, sir.

853
00:57:08,270 --> 00:57:13,210
You see, my particular
concern here, DI Cottan...

854
00:57:13,270 --> 00:57:18,270
is if you were familiar with this
file before I gave you access?

855
00:57:23,270 --> 00:57:25,670
Do you have an answer, DI Cottan?

856
00:57:26,270 --> 00:57:28,230
Yes, I was familiar with the file.

857
00:57:28,270 --> 00:57:30,210
Yes.

858
00:57:30,270 --> 00:57:32,230
And how were you familiar with it?

859
00:57:32,270 --> 00:57:35,230
I acquired the file from a
former Major Violent Crime officer

860
00:57:35,270 --> 00:57:38,230
involved in the investigation
into the murder of Tommy Hunter —

861
00:57:38,270 --> 00:57:40,210
DS Rogerson.

862
00:57:40,270 --> 00:57:43,230
I then passed it over to Gill
Bigelow. Yeah, not to me.

863
00:57:43,270 --> 00:57:46,210
Not to DS Arnott, not to DC Fleming.

864
00:57:46,270 --> 00:57:49,230
Well, I wanted to avoid Steven
Arnott. I think we all know why.

865
00:57:49,270 --> 00:57:52,230
That file had crucial pieces
of information removed that held

866
00:57:52,270 --> 00:57:55,230
this inquiry back for weeks. Yeah,
well, I'm sorry about that, sir,

867
00:57:55,270 --> 00:57:58,230
but I took that file at
face value, in good faith.

868
00:57:58,270 --> 00:58:00,230
And when we found out about
the missing information

869
00:58:00,270 --> 00:58:01,230
why didn't you say something?

870
00:58:01,270 --> 00:58:05,210
You should have been shouting that
from the rafters, man! No, sir. No.

871
00:58:05,250 --> 00:58:06,230
I didn't have the evidence yet

872
00:58:06,270 --> 00:58:09,210
and I didn't want to
alert them beforehand.

873
00:58:09,250 --> 00:58:10,230
Alert who?

874
00:58:10,270 --> 00:58:13,210
Don't you see, sir?

875
00:58:13,270 --> 00:58:16,270
DS Rogerson is a former
girlfriend of DS Arnott.

876
00:58:20,270 --> 00:58:24,210
I'm sorry, sir. Weren't you aware
of the relationship between Rogerson

877
00:58:24,270 --> 00:58:26,210
and Arnott?

878
00:58:26,270 --> 00:58:29,210
No. I wasn't.

879
00:58:29,270 --> 00:58:31,230
You should have told him, DC Fleming.

880
00:58:31,270 --> 00:58:34,210
Spare the gaffer his blushes.

881
00:58:34,270 --> 00:58:36,230
Well, the only person known
to have handled that file

882
00:58:36,270 --> 00:58:40,210
apart from DS Rogerson
is you, not DS Arnott.

883
00:58:40,270 --> 00:58:43,230
Well, the pair of them must have
hatched a plot to alter the file.

884
00:58:43,270 --> 00:58:45,230
DS Rogerson denies altering the file.

885
00:58:45,270 --> 00:58:48,230
Well, she would, wouldn't
she? Look, sounds to me

886
00:58:48,270 --> 00:58:50,230
like this is another one
to throw at Steven Arnott.

887
00:58:50,270 --> 00:58:52,230
I'm still exorcised by the
fact you didn't mention

888
00:58:52,270 --> 00:58:56,210
any of this sooner. I don't cast
aspersions on fellow officers.

889
00:58:56,270 --> 00:58:58,230
Unless I can back it
up with hard evidence.

890
00:58:58,270 --> 00:59:00,410
Unlike some I can mention.

891
00:59:06,270 --> 00:59:08,270
DC Fleming.

892
00:59:10,270 --> 00:59:13,230
On screen, you'll see evidence
gathered in the case against

893
00:59:13,270 --> 00:59:15,210
Harinderpal Bains.

894
00:59:15,270 --> 00:59:20,210
Images 291 and 292 showing
item reference MR-3 and MR-4.

895
00:59:20,270 --> 00:59:23,210
MR-3 and MR-4 are
unregistered mobile phones

896
00:59:23,270 --> 00:59:26,210
recovered from Hari Bains' home.

897
00:59:26,270 --> 00:59:28,210
So, what is this?

898
00:59:28,270 --> 00:59:31,230
One of our own's about to be
charged with murder, I think

899
00:59:31,270 --> 00:59:33,230
we're entitled to ask a
few questions, don't you?

900
00:59:33,270 --> 00:59:37,210
Yeah, no, no, of course.
Whatever I can do to help.

901
00:59:37,270 --> 00:59:39,230
These phones were provided
to Bains and he used them

902
00:59:39,270 --> 00:59:42,230
to communicate with The
Caddy. A similar type of phone

903
00:59:42,270 --> 00:59:45,230
was recovered from the boot of
DS Arnott's car. Yeah, well,

904
00:59:45,270 --> 00:59:48,230
these are matters of fact in
the case against Steven Arnott.

905
00:59:48,270 --> 00:59:50,230
Yeah, well, I'm just making
sure we all understand the facts

906
00:59:50,270 --> 00:59:52,210
as they stand.

907
00:59:52,270 --> 00:59:55,210
We'll return to the phone shortly.

908
00:59:55,270 --> 00:59:59,210
Now, in last night's interview of DS
Arnott you stated that you'd attempted

909
00:59:59,270 --> 01:00:02,230
to order a second postmortem
on the body of PC Rod Kennedy.

910
01:00:02,270 --> 01:00:05,230
A search of e-mail records
found no e-mail from you

911
01:00:05,270 --> 01:00:08,270
to the pathologist office
requesting said postmortem.

912
01:00:10,270 --> 01:00:12,230
DI Cottan?

913
01:00:15,270 --> 01:00:17,270
Uh? Seriously?

914
01:00:18,270 --> 01:00:20,230
You know what the IT system
is like in this building.

915
01:00:20,270 --> 01:00:22,230
Just because it is not on the server,

916
01:00:22,270 --> 01:00:24,230
that does not mean I didn't send it.

917
01:00:24,270 --> 01:00:27,270
As a matter of fact, DI Cottan,
what I'm seeing here is a pattern.

918
01:00:29,270 --> 01:00:32,230
A pattern of failure to
discharge your responsibilities

919
01:00:32,270 --> 01:00:33,230
as a senior detective.

920
01:00:33,270 --> 01:00:36,230
You should have been
chasing up that postmortem!

921
01:00:36,270 --> 01:00:38,230
No, you are absolutely right, sir.

922
01:00:38,270 --> 01:00:42,210
And what's worse is Kate had made a
specific point of asking me and all.

923
01:00:42,270 --> 01:00:44,230
I was beside myself when I realised

924
01:00:44,270 --> 01:00:47,070
and I apologise unreservedly for my error.

925
01:00:49,270 --> 01:00:51,230
But you see, DI Cottan...

926
01:00:51,270 --> 01:00:54,230
it raises the distinct possibility
that you were somehow reluctant

927
01:00:54,270 --> 01:00:58,210
to seek confirmation that
Kennedy WASN'T a suicide.

928
01:00:58,270 --> 01:01:00,230
That he was in fact murdered.

929
01:01:00,270 --> 01:01:02,230
I was very pleased with
that information, sir,

930
01:01:02,270 --> 01:01:05,230
as it was instrumental
in our arrest of Bains.

931
01:01:05,270 --> 01:01:07,610
For which I won a commendation.

932
01:01:08,270 --> 01:01:11,210
Let's just stay with
Hari Bains for a second.

933
01:01:11,270 --> 01:01:14,230
He levelled some very disturbing
allegations against you,

934
01:01:14,270 --> 01:01:16,230
DI Cottan, wouldn't you agree?

935
01:01:16,270 --> 01:01:20,270
Which I strenuously deny. And for
which there is zero evidence.

936
01:01:22,270 --> 01:01:25,210
Yeah, well...

937
01:01:25,270 --> 01:01:28,670
we carried out a search of
your service vehicle. What?

938
01:01:30,270 --> 01:01:33,230
Now, I am doing very well to
avoid blowing my top here.

939
01:01:33,270 --> 01:01:35,210
This is out of order.

940
01:01:35,270 --> 01:01:37,230
And as you well know, completely illegal

941
01:01:37,270 --> 01:01:40,230
under the Police and
Criminal Evidence Act 1984,

942
01:01:40,270 --> 01:01:43,230
as DI Cottan is neither under
arrest nor charged with an offence.

943
01:01:43,270 --> 01:01:45,230
Yes, well, said illegality
would only apply

944
01:01:45,270 --> 01:01:47,230
if it was DI Cottan's personal vehicle.

945
01:01:47,270 --> 01:01:49,230
His service vehicle is owned by the police

946
01:01:49,270 --> 01:01:51,230
and as such we are entitled to search it

947
01:01:51,270 --> 01:01:53,230
without any form of authority.

948
01:01:53,270 --> 01:01:54,230
Still, in my view,

949
01:01:54,270 --> 01:01:57,230
we have reached the point
where either you stop

950
01:01:57,270 --> 01:01:59,350
or you caution my client.

951
01:02:08,270 --> 01:02:10,470
DI Cottan, stay right there.

952
01:02:13,270 --> 01:02:15,230
You do not have to say anything, however,

953
01:02:15,270 --> 01:02:18,230
it may harm your defence if
you fail to mention something,

954
01:02:18,270 --> 01:02:22,210
under questioning, that you
later go on to rely on in court.

955
01:02:22,270 --> 01:02:27,270
Of course, anything you do say may
be used in evidence. Thank you.

956
01:02:34,270 --> 01:02:36,230
Now, what the hell are you
doing searching my car?

957
01:02:36,270 --> 01:02:40,210
This is a signed authority from
Superintendent Summers of AC-3

958
01:02:40,270 --> 01:02:47,270
to investigate AC-12 officers, based
on concerns raised by DC Fleming.

959
01:02:49,270 --> 01:02:52,210
OK.

960
01:02:52,270 --> 01:02:55,270
Just doing our job here,
there is nothing personal.

961
01:02:58,270 --> 01:03:01,230
OK, it was obviously
investigating Steven Arnott.

962
01:03:01,270 --> 01:03:02,230
Not me.

963
01:03:02,270 --> 01:03:05,230
The signed authority from
Superintendent Summers

964
01:03:05,270 --> 01:03:08,210
is a bit like Grandma's nightgown.

965
01:03:08,270 --> 01:03:10,210
It covers everything.

966
01:03:10,270 --> 01:03:13,230
DC Fleming, the search of
DI Cottan's service vehicle,

967
01:03:13,270 --> 01:03:14,230
if you please.

968
01:03:14,270 --> 01:03:16,210
Sir.

969
01:03:16,270 --> 01:03:20,210
Service vehicle November Juliet
Zero Seven Zulu Foxtrot Whisky

970
01:03:20,270 --> 01:03:24,210
was examined forensically,
with one notable finding.

971
01:03:24,270 --> 01:03:27,210
Item GBS-8 is a number
of synthetic fibres.

972
01:03:27,270 --> 01:03:32,210
Comparison of fibres from
GBS-8 and NTW-7 finds multiple

973
01:03:32,270 --> 01:03:36,210
chemical correlations that
imply a very strong likelihood

974
01:03:36,270 --> 01:03:39,230
the materials derive from
the same original source.

975
01:03:39,270 --> 01:03:42,270
The same original source.

976
01:03:43,270 --> 01:03:46,230
NTW-7 is the item reference
assigned to the rope

977
01:03:46,270 --> 01:03:50,210
found at the industrial unit
where Hari Bains was arrested.

978
01:03:50,270 --> 01:03:52,670
The noose had been in your boot.

979
01:03:54,270 --> 01:03:58,270
The noose that you claimed Hari
Bains was going to hang you with.

980
01:04:00,270 --> 01:04:04,210
What the forensics are suggesting
is that you planted it there

981
01:04:04,270 --> 01:04:06,230
in that industrial unit

982
01:04:06,270 --> 01:04:09,470
to falsely incriminate
Bains for Kennedy's murder!

983
01:04:17,270 --> 01:04:20,230
Bains had handled the rope
when he prepared the noose.

984
01:04:20,270 --> 01:04:23,230
Bains and I had a scuffle in which
he attempted to overpower me.

985
01:04:23,270 --> 01:04:25,230
Fibres transferred onto me.

986
01:04:25,270 --> 01:04:28,230
Those fibres were then transferred
into my service vehicle

987
01:04:28,270 --> 01:04:30,230
the next morning when I clocked on.

988
01:04:30,270 --> 01:04:33,210
They were in the boot — nowhere else.

989
01:04:33,270 --> 01:04:36,230
The first thing I do before I get
in the motor is sling my coat

990
01:04:36,270 --> 01:04:38,230
and briefcase in the boot.

991
01:04:38,270 --> 01:04:40,230
Now, if those fibres were
going to end up anywhere,

992
01:04:40,270 --> 01:04:43,070
that is exactly where they would be found.

993
01:04:45,270 --> 01:04:47,210
Are you covering...

994
01:04:47,270 --> 01:04:51,210
for the real murderer of Rod Kennedy?

995
01:04:51,270 --> 01:04:52,810
No, I'm not.

996
01:04:53,270 --> 01:04:57,270
Were you involved in murdering
Rod Kennedy? No, I wasn't.

997
01:05:07,270 --> 01:05:10,150
Returning to the mobile
phones... Happy to.

998
01:05:12,270 --> 01:05:14,210
On screen, image 104.

999
01:05:14,270 --> 01:05:17,210
Image 104 shows item reference KMF-13,

1000
01:05:17,270 --> 01:05:19,230
an unregistered mobile phone,

1001
01:05:19,270 --> 01:05:23,270
and item reference KMF-14 is a
subscriber identification module.

1002
01:05:24,270 --> 01:05:26,550
Do you recognise these items?

1003
01:05:29,230 --> 01:05:30,230
No.

1004
01:05:30,270 --> 01:05:32,230
No? I'll give you "no".

1005
01:05:32,270 --> 01:05:35,230
These items were submitted
to us in evidence by a witness

1006
01:05:35,270 --> 01:05:38,230
who alleges that they
do or did belong to you.

1007
01:05:38,270 --> 01:05:40,230
Well, then, the witness is mistaken.

1008
01:05:40,270 --> 01:05:44,210
Analysis of said subscriber
identification module KMF-14

1009
01:05:44,270 --> 01:05:49,210
revealed no activity since October 2014.

1010
01:05:49,270 --> 01:05:51,230
All communications up to
and including that date

1011
01:05:51,270 --> 01:05:54,210
appear to relate to
other unregistered users.

1012
01:05:54,270 --> 01:05:58,210
Right, so you have got a phone
that doesn't belong to me

1013
01:05:58,270 --> 01:06:00,230
and a load of mysterious calls.

1014
01:06:00,270 --> 01:06:03,210
Pardon me if I don't see the significance.

1015
01:06:03,270 --> 01:06:05,270
On screen, image 909.

1016
01:06:06,270 --> 01:06:09,210
Image 909 is item reference SJP-32.

1017
01:06:09,270 --> 01:06:12,210
It was detected in the boot of a vehicle

1018
01:06:12,270 --> 01:06:14,230
found at the Edge Park Golf Club

1019
01:06:14,270 --> 01:06:16,210
in July of 2012.

1020
01:06:16,270 --> 01:06:19,210
The vehicle is registered
to Alex Campbell —

1021
01:06:19,270 --> 01:06:23,210
the alias being used at the
time by one John Thomas Hunter.

1022
01:06:23,270 --> 01:06:25,230
Now, it was known Tommy Hunter
used numerous such phones

1023
01:06:25,270 --> 01:06:28,210
to conduct his criminal activities.

1024
01:06:28,270 --> 01:06:31,230
But this particular phone
is of interest to us

1025
01:06:31,270 --> 01:06:37,210
because of a call made on the 8th
of July 2012 at around midnight.

1026
01:06:37,270 --> 01:06:40,210
It was from Hunter's phone to yours.

1027
01:06:40,270 --> 01:06:42,230
And that's the significance, fella.

1028
01:06:42,270 --> 01:06:45,210
In black and white.

1029
01:06:45,270 --> 01:06:48,230
I have no connection with this phone
or SIM Card you have been given.

1030
01:06:48,270 --> 01:06:51,210
And I've certainly no
connection to Hunter.

1031
01:06:51,270 --> 01:06:54,270
So how come we are being told
this phone belongs to you?

1032
01:06:56,270 --> 01:06:59,210
This witness you've got, I bet he said

1033
01:06:59,270 --> 01:07:02,270
he found this phone in my service
vehicle a couple of years back.

1034
01:07:03,270 --> 01:07:05,230
Well, I can neither confirm nor deny...

1035
01:07:05,270 --> 01:07:06,230
Yeah, well, I CAN confirm that

1036
01:07:06,270 --> 01:07:10,210
he's sat on this so-called
evidence for a long time.

1037
01:07:10,270 --> 01:07:12,230
I reckon he also told you
he conned me into taking

1038
01:07:12,270 --> 01:07:15,230
the wrong SIM Card back while
he held on to the real McCoy.

1039
01:07:15,270 --> 01:07:18,230
Yeah, well, as I said, I can
neither confirm nor deny.

1040
01:07:18,270 --> 01:07:23,270
Is there anything you've got
linking me to these items? Mm?

1041
01:07:24,270 --> 01:07:26,670
Something like forensic evidence?

1042
01:07:28,270 --> 01:07:31,210
I did leave my phone
in my service vehicle.

1043
01:07:31,270 --> 01:07:33,230
And I was very grateful when DC Morton —

1044
01:07:33,270 --> 01:07:37,210
and let's not be coy about
names — returned it to me.

1045
01:07:37,270 --> 01:07:40,230
Now, I have no idea where this
other SIM Card has come from.

1046
01:07:40,270 --> 01:07:43,230
But DC Morton informed us
that it was you who induced him

1047
01:07:43,270 --> 01:07:45,230
to mislead the original
inquiry about The Caddy,

1048
01:07:45,270 --> 01:07:49,210
that it was you, DI Cottan,
who suggested attributing

1049
01:07:49,270 --> 01:07:52,210
the nickname to a deceased police officer.

1050
01:07:52,270 --> 01:07:54,230
Well, that's just not true, sir.

1051
01:07:54,270 --> 01:07:57,210
It was DC Morton who did the misleading.

1052
01:07:57,270 --> 01:08:01,210
He is the one that has been falsely
claiming disability benefits.

1053
01:08:01,270 --> 01:08:04,230
He will say anything to cling on
to his pension. Anything at all.

1054
01:08:04,270 --> 01:08:07,270
The man is a completely
unreliable witness.

1055
01:08:12,270 --> 01:08:16,270
DI Cottan, where were you
on the morning of July 17th?

1056
01:08:18,270 --> 01:08:21,230
You're asking me where I was
when Lindsay Denton was murdered?

1057
01:08:21,270 --> 01:08:22,230
100% that's what she's asking you.

1058
01:08:22,270 --> 01:08:25,230
You need to demonstrate some
legal basis for that question

1059
01:08:25,270 --> 01:08:28,270
or I suggest you withdraw it immediately.

1060
01:08:29,270 --> 01:08:32,010
Kate, bring up the next item and the map.

1061
01:08:34,270 --> 01:08:37,210
Item reference MB-1 to MB-5,

1062
01:08:37,270 --> 01:08:40,230
traffic cameras captured
images of this vehicle

1063
01:08:40,270 --> 01:08:42,230
on the morning of Lindsay's murder.

1064
01:08:42,270 --> 01:08:45,230
Identical make, model and
colour as Steve Arnott's

1065
01:08:45,270 --> 01:08:47,670
but with different registration.

1066
01:08:48,270 --> 01:08:53,210
It was driven on the route matching
Lindsay's location that morning.

1067
01:08:53,270 --> 01:08:55,230
The registration proved to be false.

1068
01:08:55,270 --> 01:08:57,230
We are curious about the logic here.

1069
01:08:57,270 --> 01:08:59,210
The logic?

1070
01:08:59,270 --> 01:09:01,230
Steve Arnott takes the
trouble to disguise a vehicle,

1071
01:09:01,270 --> 01:09:04,230
but there were no fake plates found
when Lindsay's body was discovered.

1072
01:09:04,270 --> 01:09:07,230
I mean, why would Steve
remove the fake plates...

1073
01:09:07,270 --> 01:09:10,230
and then leave Lindsay's body
lying in the front passenger seat

1074
01:09:10,270 --> 01:09:12,410
for all the world to find?

1075
01:09:14,270 --> 01:09:19,210
My hypothesis would be Steven Arnott
only meant to abduct Lindsay Denton.

1076
01:09:19,270 --> 01:09:22,270
Something went wrong, he
killed her, he panicked.

1077
01:09:23,270 --> 01:09:25,230
Would Lindsay really
have got into Steve's car

1078
01:09:25,270 --> 01:09:28,210
if she'd seen it was
displaying fake plates?

1079
01:09:28,270 --> 01:09:30,270
Everyone makes mistakes.

1080
01:09:31,270 --> 01:09:33,270
Indeed we do, DI Cottan.

1081
01:09:38,270 --> 01:09:40,230
Are there any witnesses that saw

1082
01:09:40,270 --> 01:09:43,210
Steve's car being stolen, as he claimed?

1083
01:09:43,270 --> 01:09:47,270
Mm? Any witnesses that saw
anyone else driving the vehicle?

1084
01:09:50,270 --> 01:09:53,270
I think these are questions
for Steven Arnott, not me.

1085
01:09:56,230 --> 01:09:57,230
DC Fleming.

1086
01:09:57,270 --> 01:10:00,210
Steve Arnott insists
he returned his firearm

1087
01:10:00,270 --> 01:10:02,230
four days before Lindsay's murder.

1088
01:10:02,270 --> 01:10:04,230
The booking-out officer
at South Ferry armoury

1089
01:10:04,270 --> 01:10:06,230
corroborates Steve's story.

1090
01:10:06,270 --> 01:10:08,230
The booking-out officer
is covering his own arse.

1091
01:10:08,270 --> 01:10:11,230
Yeah, well, an impostor could
have obtained the murder weapon

1092
01:10:11,270 --> 01:10:13,230
and then forged the paperwork
to make it appear that

1093
01:10:13,270 --> 01:10:16,230
Steve Arnott's firearm had the same
serial number as the murder weapon

1094
01:10:16,270 --> 01:10:18,230
and that he never returned it.

1095
01:10:18,270 --> 01:10:22,210
That's an interesting theory.
But it couldn't have been me.

1096
01:10:22,250 --> 01:10:23,230
I am not an AFO.

1097
01:10:23,270 --> 01:10:26,210
How would I have obtained
the murder weapon?

1098
01:10:26,270 --> 01:10:29,230
The Caddy commands a
network of corrupt officers.

1099
01:10:29,270 --> 01:10:30,610
He does.

1100
01:10:32,270 --> 01:10:35,210
But Steve Arnott's The Caddy, not me.

1101
01:10:35,270 --> 01:10:38,230
You have thought that since
before Lindsay's murder. Yeah.

1102
01:10:38,270 --> 01:10:43,210
Yeah, in fact, you made a call to me
the night before Lindsay's murder.

1103
01:10:43,270 --> 01:10:45,230
You called me after you had
observed Lindsay Denton

1104
01:10:45,270 --> 01:10:47,670
return to her approved premises.

1105
01:10:48,270 --> 01:10:51,210
Yeah. At 15 minutes after midnight,

1106
01:10:51,270 --> 01:10:53,230
you called me from your
mobile and you said,

1107
01:10:53,270 --> 01:10:55,230
"That lead on Steve looks
like it's going to pan out,

1108
01:10:55,270 --> 01:10:59,210
"he really did plant the
money at Lindsay's. Sorry.

1109
01:10:59,270 --> 01:11:03,210
"I thought you would want to know
before it becomes common knowledge."

1110
01:11:03,270 --> 01:11:05,750
Did you make that call, DI Cottan?

1111
01:11:06,230 --> 01:11:07,230
I...

1112
01:11:07,270 --> 01:11:10,230
Yeah. Yeah, so what was that
lead that was going to pan out?

1113
01:11:10,270 --> 01:11:12,270
Erm...

1114
01:11:15,270 --> 01:11:18,230
Well, it couldn't have been
the money in Steve's gym bag,

1115
01:11:18,270 --> 01:11:20,230
because that wasn't discovered
until the forensics carried out

1116
01:11:20,270 --> 01:11:23,270
a search in the service
vehicle the next day.

1117
01:11:26,270 --> 01:11:29,230
Arnott was behaving suspiciously
and I wanted to give Kate

1118
01:11:29,270 --> 01:11:31,230
a heads up, as they had been
partners for a long time.

1119
01:11:31,270 --> 01:11:33,230
Oh, that's very considerate of you,

1120
01:11:33,270 --> 01:11:37,270
but I will ask you for a second
time — what was the lead?

1121
01:11:40,270 --> 01:11:41,550
Erm...

1122
01:11:44,270 --> 01:11:47,230
I had glimpsed some
banknotes in his gym bag,

1123
01:11:47,270 --> 01:11:48,230
I intended to investigate.

1124
01:11:48,270 --> 01:11:51,370
When did you see the
banknotes? Earlier that day.

1125
01:11:54,270 --> 01:11:57,230
But how could you have known
that forensics would connect them

1126
01:11:57,270 --> 01:11:59,750
to the money planted at Lindsay's?

1127
01:12:04,270 --> 01:12:05,470
Eh...

1128
01:12:08,270 --> 01:12:11,210
DI Cottan, were you able to forewarn Kate

1129
01:12:11,270 --> 01:12:13,230
because you had a scheme in mind
where you were going to plant

1130
01:12:13,270 --> 01:12:15,230
that money in Steve's service vehicle?

1131
01:12:15,270 --> 01:12:17,230
No. No, absolutely not.

1132
01:12:17,270 --> 01:12:20,070
That's how the service vehicle was stolen.

1133
01:12:21,270 --> 01:12:23,210
You cloned the key

1134
01:12:23,270 --> 01:12:26,230
and were plotting to use it to
plant evidence against Steve. No.

1135
01:12:26,270 --> 01:12:28,210
No, absolutely not.

1136
01:12:28,270 --> 01:12:33,210
DI Cottan, I think we have earned
the right to ask you the question —

1137
01:12:33,270 --> 01:12:36,210
will you kindly tell us your whereabouts

1138
01:12:36,270 --> 01:12:39,270
between 10 and 11 that morning?

1139
01:12:41,270 --> 01:12:44,470
Well, I really don't have
to answer that question.

1140
01:12:45,270 --> 01:12:47,210
Don't you?

1141
01:12:47,270 --> 01:12:50,230
This is a voluntary interview,
and I am only cooperating out of

1142
01:12:50,270 --> 01:12:54,210
my lawful duty as a police officer
to assist in a criminal inquiry.

1143
01:12:54,270 --> 01:12:56,230
Indeed you are, indeed you are,

1144
01:12:56,270 --> 01:12:58,230
and we can call a halt to
the proceedings right there

1145
01:12:58,270 --> 01:13:02,210
and leave this question hanging
over you and your career —

1146
01:13:02,270 --> 01:13:05,230
or you can stick your hand
up and offer us an answer

1147
01:13:05,270 --> 01:13:07,230
and exclude yourself from our inquiries.

1148
01:13:07,270 --> 01:13:09,230
Entirely your decision.

1149
01:13:09,270 --> 01:13:10,950
Take your time.

1150
01:13:25,270 --> 01:13:27,210
I was at my flat.

1151
01:13:27,270 --> 01:13:30,210
I had had a late night on surveillance

1152
01:13:30,270 --> 01:13:32,230
and I needed to catch up on some kip.

1153
01:13:32,270 --> 01:13:35,270
So you were in during
those hours? Yep. Yep.

1154
01:13:38,270 --> 01:13:39,950
Say that again.

1155
01:13:42,270 --> 01:13:45,270
You just said you were in your
flat, we have that on tape.

1156
01:13:51,270 --> 01:13:52,470
Eh...

1157
01:13:53,270 --> 01:13:56,210
It's a very simple matter, DI Cottan.

1158
01:13:56,270 --> 01:13:59,230
DI Cottan has answered,
haven't you, DI Cottan?

1159
01:13:59,270 --> 01:14:02,230
You have mentioned, when
questioned, something

1160
01:14:02,270 --> 01:14:04,870
you later intend to rely on in court.

1161
01:14:09,270 --> 01:14:13,270
Yeah, look, I... Sorry. I
may have got that wrong.

1162
01:14:14,270 --> 01:14:17,270
Eh, I just need to... think. Erm...

1163
01:14:19,270 --> 01:14:22,210
I-I'd been up late and...

1164
01:14:22,270 --> 01:14:24,610
Take your time, take your time.

1165
01:14:31,270 --> 01:14:35,270
I, eh, I need to think about
that one. Absolutely, absolutely.

1166
01:14:40,270 --> 01:14:43,270
Maybe I could just... Yeah...
check my calendar... Yeah, yeah.

1167
01:14:47,270 --> 01:14:50,270
You wouldn't have entered
my flat, would you, Kate?

1168
01:15:00,270 --> 01:15:02,270
I mean, alone.

1169
01:15:18,270 --> 01:15:21,210
Tend to this wounded man here, quick!

1170
01:15:21,270 --> 01:15:24,210
Kate! You all right?

1171
01:15:24,270 --> 01:15:27,270
Someone start CPR. I want
this building locked down!

1172
01:15:30,270 --> 01:15:32,270
Open the door!

1173
01:15:34,270 --> 01:15:36,210
Don't move!

1174
01:15:36,270 --> 01:15:40,270
Give me your Glock! There's a
pick-up point, it's all arranged!

1175
01:15:49,270 --> 01:15:51,230
Get back! MOVE!

1176
01:15:55,270 --> 01:15:57,350
Stop! Stop, armed police!

1177
01:16:01,270 --> 01:16:03,810
Keep driving as fast as you can. OK.

1178
01:16:11,270 --> 01:16:14,270
It looks like they're going
to go left, go with them.

1179
01:16:21,270 --> 01:16:23,270
Keep up with them.

1180
01:16:28,270 --> 01:16:30,270
Keep going, keep going.

1181
01:16:34,270 --> 01:16:36,270
Right, drive on.

1182
01:16:51,270 --> 01:16:54,270
Two males, one armed...

1183
01:16:58,270 --> 01:17:02,210
Kate? Suspects heading north
off Kingsgate High Street!

1184
01:17:02,270 --> 01:17:04,670
North off Kingsgate High Street!

1185
01:17:06,270 --> 01:17:09,230
Kate, listen to me, retain visual
contact but do not approach.

1186
01:17:09,270 --> 01:17:13,210
We have an armed response unit on
the way. Repeat, do not approach.

1187
01:17:13,270 --> 01:17:14,470
Sir.

1188
01:17:48,270 --> 01:17:49,810
Armed police!

1189
01:17:54,270 --> 01:17:56,550
Drop your weapon! Drop yours!

1190
01:18:08,270 --> 01:18:10,210
Kate, sitrep.

1191
01:18:10,270 --> 01:18:13,210
One suspect down. Repeat,
one suspect down.

1192
01:18:13,270 --> 01:18:15,230
Second suspect heading
to Moss Heath flyover.

1193
01:18:15,270 --> 01:18:17,270
Moss Heath flyover.

1194
01:18:19,270 --> 01:18:22,230
OK, so which one of them
is still up and running?

1195
01:18:22,270 --> 01:18:24,210
Dot.

1196
01:18:24,270 --> 01:18:27,210
What can I do to help, sir? Good girl.

1197
01:18:27,270 --> 01:18:29,230
Get on to the SFC. I need to know where

1198
01:18:29,270 --> 01:18:31,610
those armed response units are!

1199
01:18:33,270 --> 01:18:35,550
Strategic Firearms Commander.

1200
01:19:03,270 --> 01:19:05,610
Drop your gun, drop your phone!

1201
01:19:07,270 --> 01:19:09,950
Kate... Drop 'em, hands over your head!

1202
01:19:13,270 --> 01:19:17,270
They're not here for you, then?
Not yet. But they will be.

1203
01:19:19,270 --> 01:19:21,230
My advice? Run now while you can.

1204
01:19:21,270 --> 01:19:24,230
I'm too knackered to run. Drop the gun!

1205
01:19:29,270 --> 01:19:32,230
You went into my flat that morning,
you saw I wasn't there? Maybe.

1206
01:19:32,270 --> 01:19:35,270
Maybe not. When did you know?

1207
01:19:37,270 --> 01:19:41,270
That'd be telling. Well, now I
see why we never slept together.

1208
01:19:43,270 --> 01:19:45,670
It wasn't that I didn't want to.

1209
01:19:47,270 --> 01:19:49,230
Please, go now, while it's safe.

1210
01:19:49,270 --> 01:19:52,230
I get it — Steve Arnott's
The Caddy so you can retire?

1211
01:19:52,270 --> 01:19:54,230
Yeah, something like that, yeah.

1212
01:19:54,270 --> 01:19:58,210
They picked you, groomed
you, guided your career.

1213
01:19:58,270 --> 01:20:00,270
You know everything.

1214
01:20:01,270 --> 01:20:04,210
What are you going to do now, just stop?

1215
01:20:04,270 --> 01:20:06,870
What do you think they're going to do?

1216
01:20:09,270 --> 01:20:12,230
There's only one way you
can put this behind you.

1217
01:20:12,270 --> 01:20:15,230
Kate, I know what I'm
doing. Patrick Fairbank.

1218
01:20:15,270 --> 01:20:19,210
They're saying he's going to
get off the child abuse charges.

1219
01:20:19,270 --> 01:20:22,270
You know names, dates, places.

1220
01:20:23,270 --> 01:20:26,270
You know all about monsters like him.

1221
01:20:27,270 --> 01:20:29,270
Confess.

1222
01:20:30,270 --> 01:20:33,230
Give us the names of all
the people that have ruined

1223
01:20:33,270 --> 01:20:34,230
all these people's lives!

1224
01:20:34,270 --> 01:20:37,270
All these monsters you've protected!

1225
01:20:39,270 --> 01:20:43,210
Do the right thing. Confess!

1226
01:20:43,270 --> 01:20:45,270
Tell us everything.

1227
01:20:46,270 --> 01:20:48,230
Agh!

1228
01:20:56,270 --> 01:20:57,550
Go! Go!

1229
01:21:37,270 --> 01:21:40,230
PC Bindra, AC-12, I am still
awaiting the requested information.

1230
01:21:40,270 --> 01:21:44,210
Be on, everybody, one of our
own is out there in harm's way!

1231
01:21:44,270 --> 01:21:46,230
I need to know what's going on!

1232
01:21:46,270 --> 01:21:48,230
Our officer is at Moss Heath flyover,

1233
01:21:48,270 --> 01:21:51,210
we need a location on
those armed units, sir.

1234
01:22:46,270 --> 01:22:49,270
We need an ambulance!
Armed police, get back!

1235
01:22:50,270 --> 01:22:51,670
Get back!

1236
01:22:57,270 --> 01:22:59,210
Dot, drop the gun.

1237
01:22:59,270 --> 01:23:00,810
Put it down.

1238
01:23:17,270 --> 01:23:18,410
No!

1239
01:23:23,270 --> 01:23:26,230
Armed police, drop your
weapon, on the ground!

1240
01:23:26,270 --> 01:23:30,210
I'm AC-12. Everyone back! AC-12.

1241
01:23:30,270 --> 01:23:32,230
Everyone, get back, now!

1242
01:23:32,270 --> 01:23:34,550
'.. urgent paramedic support.'

1243
01:23:38,270 --> 01:23:40,210
Get away from him!

1244
01:23:40,270 --> 01:23:44,270
I'm taking his dying declaration.
Sergeant, you will stand down!

1245
01:23:47,270 --> 01:23:50,270
Come on, Dot, say it.

1246
01:24:23,270 --> 01:24:25,070
You're free to go.

1247
01:24:31,270 --> 01:24:33,270
Kate?

1248
01:24:34,270 --> 01:24:36,270
Who else would it be?

1249
01:24:53,270 --> 01:24:55,270
Thanks, mate.

1250
01:25:00,270 --> 01:25:02,470
Come on, let's get you home.

1251
01:26:18,270 --> 01:26:21,230
Congratulations, Kate.
Thank you. Very well done.

1252
01:26:21,270 --> 01:26:23,270
Thanks.

1253
01:27:41,270 --> 01:27:44,210
Look how far we've come.

1254
01:27:44,270 --> 01:27:46,210
It's a family united.

1255
01:27:46,270 --> 01:27:49,210
The Russians have made contact.

1256
01:27:49,270 --> 01:27:51,230
They are very dangerous people.

1257
01:27:51,270 --> 01:27:53,270
So are we.
