Criminal Cases Review Commission
- These submissions may have sounded preposterous at the time because Spackman was perceived as an honest high ranking officer with an unblemished record. Kevin’s allegations would be somewhat vindicated however over the next few years.
- Peter Taylor from the CCRC contacted Kevin’s solicitor on the 18th September 2003 and made the following comments: “The representations were just what they had been looking for, and commented on the fact that they were very well argued and so far as witnesses are concerned, it is the view of the CCRC that they should interview witnesses alone. In previous cases appellants have been criticised on the basis that they have instructed their solicitor’s to see witnesses in advance of the CCRC investigation and it had been suggested that this was to prime witnesses about what they should say. Thus, his view is that it is better that witnesses are seen by the CCRC as they are an independent body and no such criticism can be made.
