The untold story
Sir Norman Bettison has published his account of the Hillsborough tragedy, from witnessing the horror first hand to the still ongoing criminal investigations, including new details of what went on in the aftermath of the disaster.
Navigating trauma
As forces respond to growing numbers of officers suffering from PTSD, researchers from Bournemouth University explain how this condition can have a major impact on their ability to recall and reconstruct places in their minds.
Getting together
There has been a mixed reaction to the potential for emergency services to collaborate, but Deputy Chief Constable Andy Frost believes the opportunities are extensive and is leading major developments on a local and national level, if different cultures can be overcome.
Abusers exploited
When one man claimed to have been hacked to avoid prosecution on child abuse charges, no-one could have imagined the significance of what was revealed. Detective Inspector Inspector Phil Peters explains how someone blackmailing paedophiles produced vast amounts of intelligence on thousands of offenders.
Science on parades
A newly-published academic study has found that the procedures used to carry out police identity parades in UK criminal investigations deliver significantly less accurate results than the American equivalent.
