The evidence hearings of former #spycops have had a few common themes. Perhaps the most striking one is the poor memory that these retired professional information gathers appear to have on certain matters. Given that the events being talked about are up to 52 years ago, it...
... doesn't seem unreasonable that memories of the details of many events don't come to mind. However, it is very telling that all five of the former professional falsifiers had rather good memories on certain matters, generally ones that absolved them of blame like "it was...
... definitely just one drink one, one time" only to have blank memories on other issues that might unearth more detail on what kind of operation Conrad Dixon was running with the SDS like "my closest colleague acting as a prosecution witness in a case that successfully...
... convicted an innocent man of incitement to riot, based on a leaflet she collected at a meeting I attend with her? I really can't remember anything". No one remembers any discussion with any of the colleagues about anything to do with any of their deployments, even ones...
... that overlapped their own undercover roles. No professional discussions of any note at all appear to have stuck in the mind, it seems all that the SDS members did together in their safe house was play cards. Of course, this is perfectly normal for law enforcement, even if...
... any of them were to come clean about any of their behaviour, they are incredibly unlikely to throw a fellow officer under the bus, even if they're already dead. Then there is the difference between the written Witness Statements, submitted no more than 2 years ago, and the...
... oral evidence they have given now. When presented with information they clearly remembered when they responded in writing, they are now completely unable to recall anything about the incident in question. A number of the officers remarked that the evidence bundle that had...
... been presented to them was missing an unknown number of reports they had written. It came as no surprise that the reports around incidents like the IRA Post Office Tower Bombing of 1971, which happened the same night HN340 attended an Irish Solidarity Campaign function...
... less than five minutes walk away. Whilst that report has disappeared, plenty of others which bare the names of officers who dismiss the contents as "far too eloquent" for anything they might have written. You begin to get the impression that one section of the SDS was...
... putting together all the reports that justified the existence of the unit, whilst the rest of the officers were there to sign off whatever was written, regardless of whether they had picked up the intelligence themselves or not. Again unsurprisingly, the section of the SDS...
... that has given evidence so far has not been those that directed operations. It has been very revealing to see ex-#spycops given evidence, even if they are shielded from difficult questions, but it has been despite their approach to proceedings rather than because of it.
