He is obviously going to be 'not guilty'.

Many instances of misconduct and incompetence get covered up from the public and their officers NEVER get prosecuted… they are a total embarrassment! It is not surprising that Thames Valley Police force has such a poor reputation for being one of the worst performing in the country and receiving a very large number of complaints against them. This obviously shows the standard of our police force and once again confirms the saying ‘never trust a copper’! Shame on them !!
