Missed that one. There was the case of seven paratroopers charged with killing an 18 year old boy which was thrown out by the judge - "Before directing the panel to clear the soldiers, Judge Blackett said he considered the investigation into the case had been "inadequate". (Apparently blood matching the dead man's DNA was found in a screw recess on one of the soldiers rifles.)

Here's a Times roundup of other trials in the pipeline.
