Three Enfield police officers accused of "waterboarding" a suspect will face no further action after the main witness refused to give evidence. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-17387615 This news item made huge headlines when it first appeared, not that Officers have been found innocent we get half a page of a poorly written news flash. "He continued: "Regrettably, in this particular case, the main witness has declined to provide their evidence to a hearing." ​Maybe because it wasn`t true.
