Well there we have to totally disagree.
The major issue is that a copper with a dodgy pedigree screwed up and was forced to resign. He held a grudge for 10 years and is making allegations based on material he held illegally. Confidence in the police is already abysmally low. If Quick is not made an example of there will be a further serious loss of confidence in the police. Already other ex policemen are supporting his actions by seemingly backing up his allegations. They should be stripped of their pensions and charged at the very least of breaching the data protection act. I have no doubt other charges could be generated due to the political interference resulting from their actions.
The only satisfactory outcome for this imbroglio is to have the courts decide upon the rights and wrongs of all the issues raised.
   The sooner the better.
