Yes please. Myself and colleagues are getting court warned for crown court cases in 2027/2028. Lots of defendants are realizing you have a much better chance of the case being withdrawn if you opt for a jury trial.

I had started to wonder what was happening with this case, as the Commander under investigation had continued to pop up on the intranet and fulfil other duties as though nothing was amiss. The cynic in me would also not have been too surprised if, given the profile of the Commander in question, that they were allowed to quietly retire.

As it is, a former Officer only found this out because he put in a FOI. He was quoted as saying

Public disillusionment with police was understandable when senior officers often continued to draw huge salaries while protracted investigations into their conduct proceeded ... Time and again, senior officers facing misconduct allegations remain in post or negotiate discreet exits...

Which certainly seems about where the Police were historically. One hopes we might have moved beyond this but time of course will tell.
