Ian Tomlinson death: PC cleared

Ian Tomlinson death: PC cleared [LINK]

PC Simon Harwood, 45, of south London, denied the manslaughter, in April 2009, of Mr Tomlinson, 47, on the grounds that he used reasonable force.

• In 2000, five years after he joined the Met, PC Harwood was involved in what was described at Mr Tomlinson’s inquest as a “road rage”  incident but his employment record was kept from the jury.
• PC Harwood retired on medical grounds in 2001 before a disciplinary  hearing took place for previous alleged misconduct towards a member of the public.

I keep telling people, NEVER trust the UK legal system.

Just remember that police protect themselves, so never expect if police do anything wrong to you they will be punished.
