0:06:09 > 0:06:12Your officers, they're traipsing all over every blade of grass
0:06:12 > 0:06:14before MY team's had a chance to secure evidence.
0:06:14 > 0:06:18This is a live search for a suspect and THAT takes priority.
0:06:18 > 0:06:20I'll send you in to do an initial survey the moment the

0:06:22 > 0:06:23Fine, yeah, ready when you are.

0:07:16 > 0:07:19- Michael Farmer until he's been fully forensically processed.- Right.
0:07:19 > 0:07:22No way some smart arse defence barrister's going to get to confuse
0:07:22 > 0:07:25a jury about cross-contamination of forensic evidence.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Please do nothing to alert Mr Farmer.

0:08:14 > 0:08:17- MALE INTERVIEWER:- Michael, why did you run from our arresting officers?
0:08:19 > 0:08:20I was frightened.
0:08:22 > 0:08:24Please can you help us with where you were
0:08:24 > 0:08:25between 8pm and 10pm last night?
0:08:32 > 0:08:34I went to visit my nan.
0:08:34 > 0:08:36Which would be where, please, Michael?
0:08:36 > 0:08:38At the nursing home.
0:08:39 > 0:08:41- FEMALE INTERVIEWER: - How long did you stay
0:08:41 > 0:08:43at the nursing home, please, Michael?

0:08:47 > 0:08:48Visiting time.
0:08:48 > 0:08:50And then where did you go, Michael?
0:08:51 > 0:08:53Nowhere.
0:08:53 > 0:08:55Can you help us with what you mean by "nowhere", please, Michael?
0:08:55 > 0:08:59After visiting Nan, I go and eat me sandwiches and have me drink.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01Where did you do that, Michael?
0:09:03 > 0:09:06Sat on a wall.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Why didn't you stay with your nan instead?
0:09:10 > 0:09:11You're not allowed...
0:09:13 > 0:09:15..after half-past eight.
0:09:15 > 0:09:18If you had your phone with you, that could help prove your whereabouts.
0:09:18 > 0:09:23- LAWYER:- Unfortunately, Mr Farmer's phone isn't a smartphone.
0:09:23 > 0:09:26But surely, Mr Morganstaff, you realise that you can locate
0:09:26 > 0:09:30any mobile SIM via triangulation of relative signal strength.
0:09:34 > 0:09:36Yeah.
0:09:37 > 0:09:39Would you like to take a break, Michael?
0:09:42 > 0:09:43Ah, Roz, I'm glad I caught you.
0:09:46 > 0:09:48Tim, they're about to go back in with the suspect.
0:09:48 > 0:09:51About to. Now, these appear to have been the most significant find
0:09:51 > 0:09:53- at the crime scene. - I'm up to speed on the forensics.
0:09:53 > 0:09:56There's a very subtle point you've probably missed.
0:09:56 > 0:09:58Trust me, I haven't.
0:09:58 > 0:10:01Boss, the duty solicitor says Farmer's ready to carry on.
0:10:01 > 0:10:03Great. Thanks, Neil.
0:10:03 > 0:10:04Tim, e-mail me your concerns.
0:10:06 > 0:10:07I know my place.
0:10:07 > 0:10:10Tim, I will read them.
0:10:10 > 0:10:11Absolutely.
0:10:19 > 0:10:21What was all that about, boss?
0:10:35 > 0:10:36As you were.
0:10:50 > 0:10:52Is DCI Huntley, um...?
0:10:52 > 0:10:54Expecting me? No.
0:10:54 > 0:10:55As you were.
0:11:00 > 0:11:01That'll be all.
0:11:01 > 0:11:04- MALE INTERVIEWER:- So from half-past eight to a quarter to ten,
0:11:04 > 0:11:06- you were just sitting on a wall? - FARMER:- Yes.
0:11:06 > 0:11:08- FEMALE INTERVIEWER: - Where was the wall?
0:11:08 > 0:11:09Sir.
0:11:09 > 0:11:11I can't remember.
0:11:11 > 0:11:14Did anybody see you while you were sitting on this wall?
0:11:16 > 0:11:17I don't think so.
0:11:17 > 0:11:19Anything?
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Convicted sex offender.
0:11:22 > 0:11:24We're just hearing now he has nothing in way of an alibi.
0:11:24 > 0:11:26Good.
0:11:26 > 0:11:29- FEMALE INTERVIEWER:- You were on this wall for over an hour,
0:11:29 > 0:11:30but you can't remember where it was?
0:11:35 > 0:11:37No.
0:11:37 > 0:11:39- MALE INTERVIEWER:- Right, OK.
0:11:39 > 0:11:42Think we'll be able to charge him within the 36 hours?
0:11:42 > 0:11:45Was there anybody there with you?
0:11:45 > 0:11:48There's a lot of evidence to go through.
0:11:48 > 0:11:53You're right to be meticulous, but we need a breakthrough.
0:11:53 > 0:11:56They've been killing us on Twitter.
0:11:56 > 0:11:59There hasn't been a single moment I've regretted my choice of SIO.
0:11:59 > 0:12:01- MALE INTERVIEWER:- Think very carefully, please, Michael.
0:12:01 > 0:12:03Thank you, sir.
0:12:03 > 0:12:05But I've stuck my neck out.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07Plenty would have taken you off this case by now.
0:12:07 > 0:12:10- FEMALE INTERVIEWER: - There wasn't a young woman there?
0:12:10 > 0:12:11- No.- You sure?
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Yes.
0:12:16 > 0:12:17I have every confidence in you.
0:12:17 > 0:12:21- MALE INTERVIEWER:- There's something else we want to talk about, a fire.
0:12:21 > 0:12:23What can you tell us about that?
0:12:23 > 0:12:27- FEMALE INTERVIEWER: - A fire, in your house, Michael.
0:12:27 > 0:12:29- A big fire. - I don't know.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31- MALE INTERVIEWER:- So you're saying you had nothing to do
0:12:31 > 0:12:33with this fire?
0:12:35 > 0:12:36No.
0:12:38 > 0:12:40I'm going to show you some photographs now.
0:12:42 > 0:12:44- FEMALE INTERVIEWER:- Baswinder Kaur.

0:13:22 > 0:13:24Have you seen them before?
0:13:24 > 0:13:26I'm not sure.
0:13:28 > 0:13:32- Is this you, Michael? - This is very important, Michael.
0:13:33 > 0:13:35Please, think carefully.
0:13:35 > 0:13:38This is a photo of a man captured on the evening
0:13:38 > 0:13:42of the 25th of January when Leonie disappeared.
0:13:42 > 0:13:43Could this be you at all?
0:13:49 > 0:13:50I'm not sure.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56A 24-year-old man has been charged in connection
0:13:56 > 0:13:59with the murder of Baswinder Kaur,
0:13:59 > 0:14:02the disappearance of Leonie Collersdale

0:14:08 > 0:14:11in the Moss Heath area late last night.
0:14:11 > 0:14:14She's currently safe and well and assisting our inquiry.
0:14:14 > 0:14:18Baswinder Kaur's dismembered body was found in November last year,
0:14:18 > 0:14:20with Leonie Collersdale's disappearance also in the
0:14:20 > 0:14:23Moss Heath area ten weeks later.
0:14:23 > 0:14:25Police quickly suspected there was a connection.
0:14:25 > 0:14:28The hunt for the suspect, code-named Operation Trapdoor,
0:14:28 > 0:14:31had made scant progress until now.
0:14:31 > 0:14:32"Until now!"

0:14:59 > 0:15:01of these senseless crimes.
0:15:01 > 0:15:03They should throw away the key.

0:16:39 > 0:16:40What's up?
0:16:40 > 0:16:43There's someone down in reception wants to talk to you.
0:16:43 > 0:16:45To AC-12?
0:16:45 > 0:16:47No, he said only DS Arnott.
0:16:47 > 0:16:48Won't give a name, won't say what it's about.
0:17:16 > 0:17:18OK, the case against Michael Farmer.
0:17:18 > 0:17:20The crucial finding at the crime scene was
0:17:20 > 0:17:22a collection of three items.
0:17:22 > 0:17:25Now, the third victim, the one who was rescued,
0:17:25 > 0:17:29told officers that the suspect forcibly removed her earrings.
0:17:29 > 0:17:33Now, these earrings were identified by the victim as belonging
0:17:33 > 0:17:35to her, and the blood matched hers.
0:17:36 > 0:17:38That seems pretty sound to me.
0:17:38 > 0:17:40It does, DS Arnott.
0:17:40 > 0:17:43Significantly, highly significantly, these earrings were
0:17:43 > 0:17:47supposedly kept with items belonging to the previous victims.
0:17:47 > 0:17:48Why supposedly?
0:17:48 > 0:17:50How forensically minded are you?
0:17:51 > 0:17:53I manage OK.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55Because some officers, honestly, they think the forensics
0:17:55 > 0:17:58are cut-and-dried. But, let me tell you, that is not always the case.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01Forensics have to be interpreted carefully.
0:18:01 > 0:18:04I mean, in court, a so-called expert pops up
0:18:04 > 0:18:07and the jury stops listening to the rest of the evidence.
0:18:07 > 0:18:08Look, Tim, it's late.
0:18:10 > 0:18:13So, I asked the submissions team at the laboratory to carry out
0:18:13 > 0:18:15a simple environmental profile on these items.
0:18:15 > 0:18:17Other items recovered from the crime scene -
0:18:17 > 0:18:20a hairgrip belonging to Baswinder Kaur
0:18:20 > 0:18:23and a necklace belonging to Leonie Collersdale
0:18:23 > 0:18:27bore a characteristic pattern of carpet fibre deposits.
0:18:27 > 0:18:28Now, as residents walk around...
0:18:28 > 0:18:30Tiny amounts of carpet fibres are thrown into the air
0:18:30 > 0:18:32and settle on objects in the immediate vicinity.
0:18:32 > 0:18:35This gives an indication of how long the objects have been
0:18:35 > 0:18:36in said location.
0:18:36 > 0:18:38Exactly.
0:18:38 > 0:18:41No carpet fibre deposits were found on any of the items
0:18:41 > 0:18:44connecting the crime scene to the previous victims.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46None of the suspect's DNA either.
0:18:46 > 0:18:48Now, I'm worried...
0:18:48 > 0:18:50Well, you know what I'm worried about.
0:18:50 > 0:18:52That they were planted there.
0:18:56 > 0:18:57One more thing.
0:18:57 > 0:19:02All shoe prints in the house matched footwear seized from the resident
0:19:02 > 0:19:05of the house, apart from this one.
0:19:05 > 0:19:07It's a boot print that doesn't relate to him or to anyone
0:19:07 > 0:19:10who attended the crime scene after the scene was cordoned off
0:19:10 > 0:19:12for forensic deployment.
0:19:12 > 0:19:17Someone else was in the house around the time of the offence.
0:19:17 > 0:19:21Why haven't you taken all this to the SIO on Trapdoor?
0:19:21 > 0:19:22DCI Huntley?
0:19:22 > 0:19:25I tried. God knows, I tried.
0:19:25 > 0:19:28Evidence may have been planted, evidence may have been suppressed.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30The man they've charged could well be innocent.
0:19:30 > 0:19:35And I've come to you because, well, you're AC-12, this is what you do.
0:19:39 > 0:19:41Timothy Ifield, forensic coordinator,
0:19:41 > 0:19:4515 years' experience as an FI, promoted to Grade G two years ago
0:19:45 > 0:19:47on the back of first-class performance reviews.
0:19:47 > 0:19:50He came to us to report concerns about an investigation
0:19:50 > 0:19:53- led by DCI Roz Huntley. - Operation Trapdoor.
0:19:53 > 0:19:55He came to me, actually, sir.
0:19:55 > 0:19:56Huntley's got no history
0:19:56 > 0:19:58of misconduct or corruption allegations.
0:19:58 > 0:19:59None of her team do either.
0:19:59 > 0:20:02And on the database, none of them show any previous link
0:20:02 > 0:20:04- to the suspect.- Michael Farmer? - Yes, sir.
0:20:04 > 0:20:07Farmer's a convicted sex offender, who allegedly abducted
0:20:07 > 0:20:09a young woman in Moss Heath and left her to die in a burning house.
0:20:09 > 0:20:13And at his home, trophies were found linking to the previous victims.
0:20:13 > 0:20:16Tim Ifield claims that DCI Huntley disregarded forensic evidence
0:20:16 > 0:20:18that casts doubt on Michael Farmer's guilt.
0:20:18 > 0:20:21Bearing in mind, sir, Huntley must have discussed the evidence with
0:20:21 > 0:20:23other officers, he must have presented it
0:20:23 > 0:20:25- to the Crown Prosecutor. - Well, we can't know details
0:20:25 > 0:20:28- until we start digging, sir. - Right.
0:20:28 > 0:20:31Sir, how we treat Tim Ifield's claims speaks volumes about anyone
0:20:31 > 0:20:34that witnesses corruption or is in two minds about coming forward.
0:20:34 > 0:20:36See what happens when you become a DS?
0:20:36 > 0:20:38You start worrying how things look.
0:20:38 > 0:20:40Hang the finer points.
0:20:40 > 0:20:43A young lad might go to prison for a crime he didn't commit.
0:20:43 > 0:20:46And if police wrongdoing is part of it, I want to know.
0:20:46 > 0:20:47Sir.
0:20:53 > 0:20:54That could've gone better.
0:20:54 > 0:20:56My promotion shouldn't be an issue, Steve.
0:20:56 > 0:20:58All I mean is, next time let's get our ducks in
0:20:58 > 0:20:59a row before we talk to the gaffer.
0:20:59 > 0:21:02You're not getting any argument from me.
0:21:16 > 0:21:17Sorry, ma'am.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20There's a DS here from East Mids, says you should know all about it.
0:21:20 > 0:21:21All about what?
0:21:21 > 0:21:23Sorry, ma'am.
0:21:24 > 0:21:25- Where?- Incident Room.
0:21:32 > 0:21:35- Neil, I'll take those. - Cheers, boss.- Thank you.
0:21:39 > 0:21:40DCI Huntley.
0:21:40 > 0:21:43DS Kate Flynn. Congratulations on closing the case, ma'am.
0:21:43 > 0:21:45Great job.
0:21:45 > 0:21:46Thank you.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49I'm afraid you've caught me unawares.
0:21:49 > 0:21:51Oh, sorry, ma'am. I thought the liaison had been agreed.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53It's news to me.
0:21:53 > 0:21:56I'm Missing Persons over at East Mids, looking into a
0:21:56 > 0:21:59disappearance with similarities with the first two victims in your case.
0:21:59 > 0:22:02Like yours, she's got juvenile offences
0:22:02 > 0:22:04and on-off history of prostitution.
0:22:04 > 0:22:07Everything we've put out to the public has played down those
0:22:07 > 0:22:09girls' difficult upbringings, at my insistence.
0:22:09 > 0:22:12Prostitution is not a factor in these cases.
0:22:12 > 0:22:14The victims could have been any woman.
0:22:14 > 0:22:17No-one at this station calls those girls prostitutes.
0:22:17 > 0:22:19We call them Baswinder and Leonie.
0:22:19 > 0:22:21Yes, ma'am. I didn't mean to cause any offence.
0:22:21 > 0:22:26Hana Reznikova works two jobs, all hours, cleaner and waitress.
0:22:26 > 0:22:29Yes, ma'am. Still, my gaffer's asked me to rule out any connection.
0:22:29 > 0:22:31He said he'd sent you an e-mail.
0:22:31 > 0:22:33It's all been a bit hectic here.
0:22:33 > 0:22:37Rikki Neville, 21-year-old, last seen just before Christmas.
0:22:37 > 0:22:39What do you need from us?
0:22:39 > 0:22:41Thank you, ma'am.
0:22:41 > 0:22:43We've arranged a post-charge interview with Michael Farmer,
0:22:43 > 0:22:47just to put some questions about my case.
0:22:47 > 0:22:48Fine.
0:22:50 > 0:22:54I'll just wait here until one of your team's available, ma'am.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56You know what, interviewing Farmer...
0:22:56 > 0:22:59perhaps it would help if I was there?
0:22:59 > 0:23:01Yeah. Very good, ma'am.
0:23:40 > 0:23:42Right.
0:23:42 > 0:23:44Um...
0:23:44 > 0:23:47Michael, my name's Kate Flynn, I'm a Detective Sergeant on the
0:23:47 > 0:23:49East Midlands Constabulary.
0:23:49 > 0:23:51You remember DCI Huntley from Polk Avenue Police Station?
0:23:51 > 0:23:53Hello, Michael.
0:23:53 > 0:23:55Thank you for speaking to us today.
0:23:55 > 0:23:58How are you, Michael?
0:23:58 > 0:23:59Been in a fight?
0:24:00 > 0:24:02I had one of my falls.
0:24:02 > 0:24:05It can be tough in prison if you're in for certain kinds
0:24:05 > 0:24:07of offences, even if you're only on remand.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09We can speak to the Offender Management Officer,
0:24:09 > 0:24:11explain that you're helping us.
0:24:11 > 0:24:13And maybe that way they can do more to protect you.
0:24:13 > 0:24:15Thank you.
0:24:15 > 0:24:18Right, now first I need to remind you that you remain under caution.
0:24:22 > 0:24:25What that means is you shouldn't say anything unless you're OK
0:24:25 > 0:24:28for it to be used against you in court.
0:24:28 > 0:24:30You can avoid a question by saying no comment
0:24:30 > 0:24:33and you can stop the interview at any time.
0:24:35 > 0:24:37I need to ask you about your whereabouts in the two weeks
0:24:37 > 0:24:38after New Year.
0:24:38 > 0:24:42Did you travel to the Leicester area in early January?
0:24:42 > 0:24:43Um...
0:24:46 > 0:24:48Don't remember.
0:24:48 > 0:24:50You don't remember ever leaving town?
0:24:51 > 0:24:52I don't get out much.
0:24:52 > 0:24:57You didn't take a bus or a train out of town at all?
0:24:57 > 0:25:00It was a while ago. I'm sorry.
0:25:00 > 0:25:02I might've forgotten.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04What about driving?
0:25:04 > 0:25:07- Uh...- Do you ever drive out of town at all, Michael?
0:25:08 > 0:25:09Michael?
0:25:11 > 0:25:12No.
0:25:15 > 0:25:17Here's a photo.
0:25:17 > 0:25:19This is the girl I'm asking you about.
0:25:19 > 0:25:22She looks a bit like Hana Reznikova, doesn't she?
0:25:22 > 0:25:24Similar age, same sort of hair, I mean.
0:25:25 > 0:25:27I...
0:25:27 > 0:25:28Michael...
0:25:28 > 0:25:31did you steal anything from her?
0:25:31 > 0:25:32I, um...
0:25:32 > 0:25:35DCI Huntley's explained to me that Hana Reznikova was wearing
0:25:35 > 0:25:38a set of earrings that were found in your house.
0:25:38 > 0:25:40And this girl, someone reckons they saw her getting into
0:25:40 > 0:25:41a car with a stranger,
0:25:41 > 0:25:45which is what's alleged to have happened with Hana Reznikova.
0:25:45 > 0:25:47I don't want to get in more trouble.
0:25:47 > 0:25:49Michael, you can answer however you like.
0:25:49 > 0:25:52If you want to change your story, you can, but it's important
0:25:52 > 0:25:57that you know that changing answers may harm your defence in court.
0:25:57 > 0:25:58That's correct, Michael.
0:26:02 > 0:26:05The reason I'm asking you about the car, Michael, is because this
0:26:05 > 0:26:09is what's alleged to have happened with Hana Reznikova.
0:26:11 > 0:26:13I don't want to get things wrong.
0:26:13 > 0:26:15I get...
0:26:15 > 0:26:16I get muddled sometimes.
0:26:19 > 0:26:21What do you get muddled about, Michael?
0:26:27 > 0:26:30Do you want to stop the interview, Michael?
0:26:32 > 0:26:33Yes, please.
0:26:33 > 0:26:35OK. We'll leave it there.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42- Is that all right, DS Flynn? - Yeah, of course, ma'am, no problem.
0:26:44 > 0:26:45Thanks, everyone.
0:26:57 > 0:26:58Did I do all right?
0:27:00 > 0:27:01In what way?
0:27:02 > 0:27:04You said if I did well, you'd...
0:27:05 > 0:27:08..you'd tell them to look after me better.
0:27:09 > 0:27:10Yeah, I will.
0:27:23 > 0:27:24Sorry about that, ma'am.
0:27:24 > 0:27:26I hope I haven't wasted your time.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28No, not at all.
0:27:28 > 0:27:29Do you mind if I ask you some questions now?
0:27:29 > 0:27:31It would be good to beat the traffic home.
0:27:31 > 0:27:33Look, I don't mean to be presumptuous,
0:27:33 > 0:27:35but you're barking up the wrong tree.
0:27:35 > 0:27:37Why would you say that, ma'am?
0:27:37 > 0:27:39Farmer took trophies from each of his victims.
0:27:39 > 0:27:42We did a thorough search of the house, the fire's investigator
0:27:42 > 0:27:45found no evidence of similar items incinerated in the fire.
0:27:45 > 0:27:47Three trophies, three victims.
0:27:47 > 0:27:50Whatever happened to your missing girl, she was not the fourth.
0:27:50 > 0:27:53I'm sorry if you've had a wasted journey.
0:27:53 > 0:27:54No, not at all, ma'am.
0:27:54 > 0:27:56I really appreciate the time you've given me.
0:27:56 > 0:27:58You're welcome.
0:27:58 > 0:27:59- Goodbye.- Bye.
0:28:21 > 0:28:22All right?
0:28:25 > 0:28:26I interviewed Farmer.
0:28:26 > 0:28:29One uncontrolled crime of passion, that I can imagine.
0:28:29 > 0:28:31But two or three, leaving no clues for months?
0:28:31 > 0:28:33According to his medical records, he was diagnosed with
0:28:33 > 0:28:36learning difficulties when he was 11.
0:28:36 > 0:28:38That doesn't necessarily mean he was incapable
0:28:38 > 0:28:39of committing the offences.
0:28:39 > 0:28:41True, but he was meant to have stolen the car used
0:28:41 > 0:28:44to abduct Hana Reznikova. I'm not even convinced he can drive.
0:28:44 > 0:28:46His solicitor bring that up?
0:28:46 > 0:28:48Don't even get me started on the solicitor.
0:28:48 > 0:28:49You pressed Huntley on the driving?
0:28:49 > 0:28:51I know how to run an undercover.
0:28:51 > 0:28:53Never said you didn't.
0:28:53 > 0:28:54Well, we could leave it to you,
0:28:54 > 0:28:57but I don't want us to all end up in court again.
0:28:57 > 0:28:59Don't worry, mate. We'll get there.
0:29:01 > 0:29:02- Right.- Night, mate.
0:29:14 > 0:29:17- Yep?- Tim Ifield's raised legitimate questions, don't get me wrong, sir.
0:29:17 > 0:29:19I've looked at the electronic submissions to the CPS.
0:29:19 > 0:29:22The MG3, MG5 and all the MG11s are by the book.
0:29:22 > 0:29:25The MG6 initial disclosure is what I'd expect at this stage.
0:29:25 > 0:29:28But signal strength triangulation places Michael's mobile phone
0:29:28 > 0:29:31in the vicinity of his grandmother's nursing home and not the
0:29:31 > 0:29:32abduction of Hana Reznikova.
0:29:32 > 0:29:34Right. Well, we all know how this works.
0:29:34 > 0:29:36There's a chain of evidence,
0:29:36 > 0:29:38it starts with the investigating team, goes on to the
0:29:38 > 0:29:41Senior Investigating Officer, who presents it to the Crown Prosecutor.
0:29:41 > 0:29:44The Prosecutor can only consider the evidence put in front of her.
0:29:44 > 0:29:47What we don't know is how Huntley presented it all when she
0:29:47 > 0:29:49- made the case for charging Farmer. - Exactly.
0:29:49 > 0:29:51Nothing in Huntley's record suggests she's ever done anything
0:29:51 > 0:29:53like this before.
0:29:53 > 0:29:54And she can't have a grudge against Farmer,
0:29:54 > 0:29:56she's got no connection to him.
0:29:56 > 0:29:57Maybe on the balance of evidence,
0:29:57 > 0:29:59she believes Michael Farmer's guilty.
0:29:59 > 0:30:01She's just an honest copper getting on with the job.
0:30:01 > 0:30:04Yep, the job she's been given.
0:30:04 > 0:30:05Sir?
0:30:05 > 0:30:08Well, Huntley's superiors, they won't have been kept in the dark
0:30:08 > 0:30:09about such a high profile case.
0:30:09 > 0:30:11I mean, one girl dead, one presumed.
0:30:11 > 0:30:13One by the grace of God.
0:30:13 > 0:30:15No progress for months.
0:30:15 > 0:30:17Senior officers only get told what they want to hear, sir.
0:30:17 > 0:30:20Yeah, well, I must be the exception.
0:30:20 > 0:30:23Sir, I managed to check the electronic door entry
0:30:23 > 0:30:26download to Polk Avenue the night of Michael Farmer's questioning.
0:30:26 > 0:30:28And it shows access via the warrant card registered to
0:30:28 > 0:30:31Assistant Chief Constable Hilton.
0:30:33 > 0:30:35Right.
0:30:35 > 0:30:37OK. Thanks, you two.
0:30:37 > 0:30:38Sir.
0:30:41 > 0:30:42I'll be right out.
0:30:47 > 0:30:49I don't know if this is a good time, sir, but I've been
0:30:49 > 0:30:52a DS for over five years now and I hope I've proved myself.
0:30:52 > 0:30:54I've recently passed the National Inspectors' Exam.
0:30:54 > 0:30:56Yes, I was aware.
0:30:56 > 0:30:59Well, I feel I'm right for a promotion, sir, if you'll back me?
0:30:59 > 0:31:02Full marks for ambition, son.
0:31:02 > 0:31:04Rest assured, I will give it due consideration.
0:31:06 > 0:31:08Sir.
0:31:20 > 0:31:22The sea bass for me.
0:31:24 > 0:31:27And I'll have the sirloin steak, medium-rare, no sauce.
0:31:29 > 0:31:31You didn't fancy some vino, did you, Ted?
0:31:31 > 0:31:33Oh, no, no, no. A bit too early for me, sir.
0:31:33 > 0:31:35Although you might consider that recent successes
0:31:35 > 0:31:37merit a glass of bubbly?
0:31:38 > 0:31:42It's a bit early for me too, but certainly a cloud's been lifted.
0:31:42 > 0:31:45Yes, well, I mean, expectations are so high from the public these days.
0:31:45 > 0:31:47I mean, they think that forensic science is going to
0:31:47 > 0:31:49lead us directly to the door of the offender, you know.
0:31:49 > 0:31:51Public trust has been restored,
0:31:51 > 0:31:55the Chief Constable and the PCC have dialled down their rabid anxiety.
0:31:56 > 0:31:59So, we can relax and enjoy a pleasant lunch.
0:32:01 > 0:32:05But, I mean, it is a very trying situation, you know,
0:32:05 > 0:32:09and that level of anxiety starts to filter down through the ranks.
0:32:09 > 0:32:10How so?
0:32:10 > 0:32:12Well, you said yourself, sir, public trust,
0:32:12 > 0:32:15expectation of getting a result can sometimes lead to
0:32:15 > 0:32:18undue pressure on a detective to close a case.
0:32:18 > 0:32:20Well, I don't think that's always such a bad thing.
0:32:20 > 0:32:22Sometimes you've got to light a fire.
0:32:23 > 0:32:24Indeed, sir.
0:32:25 > 0:32:27Indeed.
0:32:27 > 0:32:30However, a detective under that kind of undue pressure can sometimes bend
0:32:30 > 0:32:35the facts to suit the expectations of his, or her, superiors.
0:32:36 > 0:32:38I've got better antennae than that.
0:32:38 > 0:32:41You know we can't be micromanagers, Ted.
0:32:41 > 0:32:43- We trust our officers... - HILTON'S PHONE VIBRATES
0:32:43 > 0:32:46..to conduct themselves with professionalism and integrity.
0:32:46 > 0:32:48Sorry.
0:32:48 > 0:32:49ACC Hilton.
0:33:02 > 0:33:03Steve.
0:33:08 > 0:33:10How do you know when an executive officer's telling lies?
0:33:10 > 0:33:12His lips move.
0:33:12 > 0:33:15There may be something in this. I sincerely hope not,
0:33:15 > 0:33:18but I'm relying on you and Kate to get to the bottom of it.
0:33:18 > 0:33:21As of now, we are investigating Roz Huntley's charging
0:33:21 > 0:33:23of Michael Farmer.
0:33:23 > 0:33:24- Sir.- Good.
0:33:49 > 0:33:50DOORBELL RINGS
0:33:53 > 0:33:54Jade Hopkirk?
0:33:54 > 0:33:57- What's he done now? - No-one's in any trouble, miss.
0:33:57 > 0:34:00Would it be possible to talk to you inside, please?
0:34:00 > 0:34:01Free country.
0:34:14 > 0:34:16I appreciate this may be a difficult subject for you, Jade,
0:34:16 > 0:34:19but I'm here to talk to you about Michael Farmer.
0:34:20 > 0:34:22All right.
0:34:22 > 0:34:25Do you mind if I ask, how did you know Mr Farmer?
0:34:25 > 0:34:28Just from the estate.
0:34:28 > 0:34:29I don't mean to push.
0:34:29 > 0:34:32Could you tell me a bit more, please?
0:34:32 > 0:34:35We used to walk the same way home from school.
0:34:35 > 0:34:37That's how it started, I suppose.
0:34:37 > 0:34:40According to records I've accessed in relation to my inquiry,
0:34:40 > 0:34:44a complaint about Michael Farmer was made on 18th June 2009
0:34:44 > 0:34:47by your mother, alleging Michael Farmer raped you.
0:34:48 > 0:34:50Why you asking me all this now?
0:34:50 > 0:34:52This relates to a new inquiry.
0:34:52 > 0:34:55I'm not at liberty to say more.
0:34:55 > 0:34:59I am sorry for bringing up a traumatic experience, Jade.
0:34:59 > 0:35:00Thank you.
0:35:01 > 0:35:03At the time, you were 15 years old?
0:35:03 > 0:35:07- Yeah. - And Mr Farmer, he was 16?
0:35:07 > 0:35:08Yeah.
0:35:08 > 0:35:10And this offence took place in Michael Farmer's home?
0:35:10 > 0:35:14His grandma was out. We were alone, listening to music and that.
0:35:16 > 0:35:19Was there a friendship of some sort before the attack took place?
0:35:19 > 0:35:22I thought he just wanted to be friends.
0:35:22 > 0:35:24But you made clear to Michael Farmer you didn't want to have
0:35:24 > 0:35:25intercourse with him?
0:35:27 > 0:35:28Yeah.
0:35:28 > 0:35:29BABY CRIES
0:35:31 > 0:35:34In his initial statement, Michael claims you went along?
0:35:34 > 0:35:36Yeah, and then he said he'd done it, so what's the problem?
0:35:54 > 0:35:57- Morning, boss. - Hey, Neil, how's it going?
0:35:57 > 0:35:59Sorry, boss, the DS from East Mids.
0:35:59 > 0:36:01How long do you want to give her?
0:36:01 > 0:36:03You've lost me.
0:36:03 > 0:36:07To go through the interviews with Farmer and the witness statements.
0:36:15 > 0:36:19Do you mind telling me what's going on here?
0:36:19 > 0:36:21My gaffer wasn't happy with what I got out of Farmer.
0:36:21 > 0:36:23He said there was holes in his statement.
0:36:23 > 0:36:25He wants more before we can rule him out.
0:36:25 > 0:36:28Sorry, ma'am, I... Your team seemed fine with it.
0:36:28 > 0:36:30I didn't want to disturb you at home.
0:36:30 > 0:36:31I'm the SIO.
0:36:31 > 0:36:33You ask me.
0:36:33 > 0:36:36Yes, ma'am, I'm sorry. I meant no disrespect.
0:36:36 > 0:36:37I'd like you to desist, please,
0:36:37 > 0:36:40while I take this up with your senior officer.
0:36:40 > 0:36:41Yeah. As you wish, ma'am.
0:36:43 > 0:36:45I'll get someone to do that.
0:36:45 > 0:36:46Very good, ma'am.
0:36:54 > 0:36:56As you know, ma'am, I'm only here to solve a crime.
0:36:56 > 0:36:58We're both on the same side.
0:36:58 > 0:36:59Of course.
0:36:59 > 0:37:01I'm very sorry, ma'am.
0:37:01 > 0:37:02OK.
0:37:14 > 0:37:17- Hello, switch. - DCI Huntley.
0:37:17 > 0:37:19Can you put me through to Missing Persons at the
0:37:19 > 0:37:20East Midlands Constabulary?
0:37:31 > 0:37:33DS Flynn's interfering with my investigation.
0:37:33 > 0:37:35I'd rather she was denied further access to our files.
0:37:35 > 0:37:37I'm sorry to hear that, DCI Huntley,
0:37:37 > 0:37:40but I need to speak to my Chief Superintendent.
0:37:40 > 0:37:44DS Flynn's secondment is an important line of inquiry for us.
0:37:44 > 0:37:46I appreciate that, but I'm finding her a disruptive influence.
0:37:46 > 0:37:50Huntley's call was intercepted by our undercover ops handling service.
0:37:50 > 0:37:52They're on standby to go over Huntley's head and push Kate
0:37:52 > 0:37:54- back on her.- Yes, well, she certainly sounds rattled.
0:37:54 > 0:37:57Huntley's definitely hiding something about how the case
0:37:57 > 0:38:00against Farmer was handled. What, I don't know.
0:38:00 > 0:38:02Steve, you're going to look into the original conviction that got
0:38:02 > 0:38:05Farmer put on the Sex Offenders Register, right?
0:38:05 > 0:38:07Erm, yeah. It checks out.
0:38:07 > 0:38:11Which suggests that maybe Huntley's got the right man after all.
0:38:11 > 0:38:13Makes me think twice about moving Kate's undercover
0:38:13 > 0:38:15up to the next level.
0:38:15 > 0:38:17Er, no, no.
0:38:17 > 0:38:20I agree with Kate, sir. It's still worth digging deeper.
0:38:22 > 0:38:24Right, well, you're my best team.
0:38:24 > 0:38:26If that's what you both think.
0:38:26 > 0:38:28- Let's turn the screw. - BOTH:- Sir.
0:38:38 > 0:38:40Someone to see you, ma'am.
0:38:42 > 0:38:44DS Arnott, ma'am.
0:38:44 > 0:38:45AC-12.
0:38:48 > 0:38:49Who are you here to see?
0:38:49 > 0:38:52I'm making enquiries into Operation Trapdoor.
0:38:52 > 0:38:53In regards to what?
0:38:53 > 0:38:57Just opening our inquiry, ma'am. It's too early to say.
0:38:58 > 0:39:00Then why are you here in person?
0:39:00 > 0:39:01A courtesy call.
0:39:01 > 0:39:03Just passing.
0:39:03 > 0:39:05I'll see you again, DCI Huntley.
0:39:21 > 0:39:22May I ask what you're doing here?
0:39:22 > 0:39:25We haven't been able to rule out Michael Farmer's involvement
0:39:25 > 0:39:28in a number of unsolved crimes within the jurisdiction of the
0:39:28 > 0:39:33East Midlands Constabulary, so we're creating a bilateral task force.
0:39:33 > 0:39:36I've been placed on temporary secondment to your team, ma'am.
0:39:44 > 0:39:47You push from the inside, I'll push from the outside.
0:39:47 > 0:39:48She'll crack.
0:40:14 > 0:40:15Thank you for seeing me, sir.
0:40:15 > 0:40:17My pleasure. Thanks, Jan.
0:40:17 > 0:40:18How can I help?
0:40:21 > 0:40:24I wonder if you have any idea why AC-12 are examining
0:40:24 > 0:40:26Operation Trapdoor?
0:40:27 > 0:40:29Um...
0:40:29 > 0:40:30I'm not corrupt, sir.
0:40:31 > 0:40:33Nor are my team.
0:40:33 > 0:40:36All procedures were followed.
0:40:36 > 0:40:39Evidence met the threshold test, met and surpassed it.
0:40:39 > 0:40:43I stuck with you on this because you're better than your record.
0:40:43 > 0:40:45Your career break, I mean.
0:40:45 > 0:40:47All those years out being a full-time mum.
0:40:47 > 0:40:50Some would worry that had cost you your edge.
0:40:50 > 0:40:55But I have the advantage of knowing first-hand how good you are.
0:40:55 > 0:40:56Thank you very much, sir.
0:40:56 > 0:41:01There's a lot of evidence, pro and con, a lot of facts.
0:41:01 > 0:41:04You've got what it takes to cut through all that.
0:41:05 > 0:41:07There's facts...
0:41:07 > 0:41:09and then there's the truth.
0:41:10 > 0:41:12I know you won't let me down.
0:41:12 > 0:41:14Yes, sir.
0:41:35 > 0:41:39Hi, Jane. Can I take a look at the forensic reports on these
0:41:39 > 0:41:40particular items of evidence?
0:41:40 > 0:41:42I've lost track of the e-mails.
0:41:42 > 0:41:45All the reference numbers are down there.
0:41:45 > 0:41:46No problem, coming right up.
0:41:55 > 0:41:58- Everything all right, Tim?- Hi, Roz. - Why don't you guys go in?
0:41:58 > 0:41:59Yeah, yeah, all good.
0:42:07 > 0:42:08Right, then. Have a good day.
0:42:08 > 0:42:10You too.
0:42:17 > 0:42:20- Morning.- Morning.
0:42:20 > 0:42:22Your friend's been here a couple of hours already.
0:42:22 > 0:42:25- Friend? - I put him in the meeting room.
0:42:40 > 0:42:41Tim.
0:42:41 > 0:42:43PC Bindra said I could wait till you arrived.
0:42:43 > 0:42:45Or you can make an appointment.
0:42:45 > 0:42:47I'd rather people didn't know I was coming here.
0:42:47 > 0:42:49So what have you discovered so far?
0:42:49 > 0:42:52Well, the inquiry's ongoing so it would be inappropriate to...
0:42:52 > 0:42:53So you're investigating. Great.
0:42:53 > 0:42:55Well, this'll help.
0:42:55 > 0:42:58Now, I was only responsible for coordinating the
0:42:58 > 0:43:00forensic deployment in Michael Farmer's house.
0:43:00 > 0:43:05But I've been able to access reports into the evidence obtained
0:43:05 > 0:43:09from Hana Reznikova, the alleged victim, and Michael Farmer himself.
0:43:09 > 0:43:11If Michael Farmer had bundled Hana Reznikova into his car and
0:43:11 > 0:43:15dragged her into his house, you'd imagine that some of his
0:43:15 > 0:43:17clothes' fibres would have been detected on her clothing,
0:43:17 > 0:43:18wouldn't you?
0:43:19 > 0:43:20Yeah, of course.
0:43:20 > 0:43:23The clothing worn by Hana Reznikova shows no fibres
0:43:23 > 0:43:27detected that match the clothing worn by Michael Farmer,
0:43:27 > 0:43:30only black fibres from a cotton and polyester blend,
0:43:30 > 0:43:32that could have come from a black jacket like her abductor
0:43:32 > 0:43:34was wearing.
0:43:34 > 0:43:36Farmer was wearing different clothing when he was arrested.
0:43:36 > 0:43:38He could have disposed of the black jacket.
0:43:38 > 0:43:41No black fibres were found on Michael Farmer's clothing
0:43:41 > 0:43:42or in his house.
0:43:42 > 0:43:46No fibres from a balaclava were found in his hair.
0:43:47 > 0:43:51Now, Roz Huntley is too clever for all this to have been missed.
0:43:53 > 0:43:54I feel like I'm alone.
0:43:54 > 0:43:58Like no-one else at Polk Avenue realises what's really going on.
0:43:58 > 0:44:01I mean, of all people, you know what that feels like.
0:44:01 > 0:44:04- Sorry? - You were a whistle-blower.
0:44:04 > 0:44:06You know, you refused to go along with the cover-up into the
0:44:06 > 0:44:08shooting of Karim Ali and you testified against your
0:44:08 > 0:44:09colleagues at the inquest.
0:44:09 > 0:44:12That is why I insisted on meeting only you.
0:44:12 > 0:44:14Because you'd understand.
0:44:14 > 0:44:17You understand what I'm thinking.
0:44:17 > 0:44:20Now, either the forensic investigators were silenced
0:44:20 > 0:44:22by Roz Huntley...
0:44:23 > 0:44:25..or they're in on the conspiracy too.
0:44:25 > 0:44:27"Conspiracy"?
0:44:27 > 0:44:28To do what?
0:44:28 > 0:44:31To ignore evidence pointing at another suspect.
0:44:31 > 0:44:34I mean, you've seen the balaclava photo?
0:44:34 > 0:44:35Of course.
0:44:35 > 0:44:38It's been released to the press, so it's in the public domain.
0:44:38 > 0:44:41Right, well, this is the CCTV image of a suspicious figure wearing
0:44:41 > 0:44:43a balaclava and black jacket seen in the vicinity of the
0:44:43 > 0:44:45disappearance of the second victim.
0:44:45 > 0:44:47Leonie Collersdale. Last seen 25th of January.
0:44:47 > 0:44:51Now, I've got some software that can analyse his biometrics.
0:44:51 > 0:44:52This has all been tried.
0:44:52 > 0:44:54Because of the high angle, the figure's height can't be
0:44:54 > 0:44:56estimated without a wide margin of error.
0:44:56 > 0:45:00Correct. Now, vertical measurements are highly unreliable.
0:45:00 > 0:45:02Horizontal ones aren't.
0:45:02 > 0:45:04Such as foot size.
0:45:04 > 0:45:09This is 27.5cm, the equivalent to a UK size ten.
0:45:11 > 0:45:13Now, the footwear seized from Michael Farmer's home and belonging
0:45:13 > 0:45:15to him was all a UK size eight.
0:45:17 > 0:45:20You believe this can't be Michael Farmer?
0:45:20 > 0:45:21Not only that.
0:45:21 > 0:45:23The boot print captured from the kitchen floor
0:45:23 > 0:45:27of Michael Farmer's home was also a UK size ten.
0:45:35 > 0:45:40This is the man I'm convinced killed Baswinder Kaur, Leonie Collersdale,
0:45:40 > 0:45:41and abducted Hana Reznikova,
0:45:41 > 0:45:43and framed Michael Farmer for everything,
0:45:43 > 0:45:46and Roz Huntley has stopped everyone looking for him.
0:45:58 > 0:45:59Jodie?
0:46:05 > 0:46:07Anything I can do, ma'am?
0:46:08 > 0:46:12Yes. Some of the forensics in the Michael Farmer case,
0:46:12 > 0:46:13I'd like them reprocessed.
0:46:15 > 0:46:17Sure.
0:46:17 > 0:46:19- I'll e-mail a list of which ones. - OK, no problem.
0:47:04 > 0:47:06Hello.
0:47:06 > 0:47:08Would you like to order from the breakfast menu?
0:47:08 > 0:47:10Uh, right, um...
0:47:10 > 0:47:12No, I'll just have a cup of tea, please.
0:47:12 > 0:47:15OK, we have Earl Grey, English breakfast, peppermint tea?
0:47:15 > 0:47:16Yeah, Earl Grey.
0:47:18 > 0:47:21- Earl Grey. OK, take a seat, sir, I'll bring it over.- Thanks.
0:47:59 > 0:48:01That's me, sir, if you're interested.
0:48:03 > 0:48:06Yeah, maybe we should fix a time for you to come round
0:48:06 > 0:48:07and size up my flat?
0:48:09 > 0:48:11Great! I'll check my diary.
0:48:12 > 0:48:14Just don't leave before we make an appointment.
0:48:14 > 0:48:15I won't.
0:48:52 > 0:48:54Sorry, ma'am, but I thought you should know about this.
0:48:54 > 0:48:57When I looked at the forensic reports on Michael Farmer's
0:48:57 > 0:48:59- and Hana Reznikova's clothing... - Yes?
0:48:59 > 0:49:03Last one to tell tales, but Tim Ifield signed out the reports.
0:49:03 > 0:49:05He's been looking at them too.
0:49:08 > 0:49:09Thanks, Jodie.
0:49:15 > 0:49:17Are you OK, ma'am? Fancy a cuppa?
0:49:18 > 0:49:20- No, thank you.- OK.
0:49:26 > 0:49:28- REPORTER:- Having come under fierce criticism
0:49:28 > 0:49:29for failing to capture the murderer,
0:49:29 > 0:49:33Central Police are now being praised for their breakthrough.
0:49:33 > 0:49:35Police and Crime Commissioner Paula...
0:50:02 > 0:50:03You all right?
0:50:03 > 0:50:04I need to go back to work.
0:50:14 > 0:50:16What's wrong with Mum?
0:50:41 > 0:50:44DOORBELL RINGS
0:51:20 > 0:51:22KNOCK ON DOOR
0:51:32 > 0:51:33Oh, Roz?
0:51:33 > 0:51:36I was ringing that bell for ages. You need to get it fixed.
0:51:36 > 0:51:39It's... It's silent. It's all controlled by my computer.
0:51:40 > 0:51:41For God's sake.
0:51:46 > 0:51:48Can I come in?
0:51:48 > 0:51:49Um, yeah, yeah, of course.
0:51:49 > 0:51:52Is everything OK?
0:51:53 > 0:51:55No.
0:51:55 > 0:51:58That's what I want to talk about.
0:51:58 > 0:52:00OK. Can I get you a tea or a coffee?
0:52:00 > 0:52:02I'm not staying.
0:52:02 > 0:52:04I'm just going to ask you, straight up -
0:52:04 > 0:52:05what the hell is going on?
0:52:07 > 0:52:08I'm not sure what you mean.
0:52:08 > 0:52:10I'm the Senior Investigating Officer.
0:52:10 > 0:52:12You're the forensic coordinator.
0:52:12 > 0:52:16You have your area of expertise, but fundamentally you answer to me.
0:52:16 > 0:52:17Yes.
0:52:17 > 0:52:20So why are you questioning my evaluation of forensic evidence?
0:52:20 > 0:52:22Look, I can see you're upset,
0:52:22 > 0:52:24but wouldn't it be better if we discussed this at work?
0:52:24 > 0:52:25I want to discuss it now.
0:52:25 > 0:52:29You've come to my home, at night, you're clearly emotional.
0:52:29 > 0:52:31Don't make out I'm in the wrong, Tim.
0:52:31 > 0:52:33You're the one going behind my back.
0:52:40 > 0:52:43See? You know exactly what I'm referring to.
0:52:43 > 0:52:44I had no choice.
0:52:45 > 0:52:48You had the choice to talk to me.
0:52:48 > 0:52:50- I tried. - Oh, don't give me that.
0:52:50 > 0:52:53You made some half-hearted effort to discuss a couple of
0:52:53 > 0:52:54minor anomalies in the evidence recovered
0:52:54 > 0:52:57- from Michael Farmer's house. - They're hardly minor.
0:52:57 > 0:53:00Cases of this complexity create mountains of evidence.
0:53:00 > 0:53:02It takes the experience of a good SIO
0:53:02 > 0:53:04to cut through all that and recognise the truth.
0:53:04 > 0:53:07The evidence is the truth!
0:53:07 > 0:53:10You think Michael Farmer's innocent, I know that he is guilty.
0:53:10 > 0:53:12There's a pattern of institutional blindness, led by you,
0:53:12 > 0:53:15into the possibility of another suspect.
0:53:15 > 0:53:17What other suspect? There is no other suspect!
0:53:17 > 0:53:19Balaclava Man!
0:53:19 > 0:53:21He committed the previous murders and he planted evidence
0:53:21 > 0:53:22in Michael Farmer's house.
0:53:22 > 0:53:26Michael Farmer is Balaclava Man, and those items were trophies.
0:53:26 > 0:53:29Of course they would have appeared different to other household items.
0:53:29 > 0:53:30And the boot print - so what?
0:53:30 > 0:53:34It's a house on a busy estate, who knows who coming and going.
0:53:34 > 0:53:37You are taking your narrow view of your own specialism,
0:53:37 > 0:53:40writing off all other parts of the case that I, as SIO,
0:53:40 > 0:53:42am in a better position to evaluate.
0:53:42 > 0:53:45Listen, I can see you're angry, but I think you should leave.
0:53:45 > 0:53:47Who the hell do you think you are?
0:53:47 > 0:53:49- Don't you push me. - I'm not the one pushing.
0:53:49 > 0:53:51Can't you see I'm right about Michael Farmer?
0:53:51 > 0:53:55No, actually, what I see is someone who can't admit that she's wrong!
0:53:55 > 0:53:57This is my life, my career,
0:53:57 > 0:54:00and I will not have some sad little wanker mess that up!
0:54:00 > 0:54:01Is that how you see Michael Farmer?
0:54:01 > 0:54:04Some "sad little wanker" that you can frame and lock him up?
0:54:04 > 0:54:06I did not frame him.
0:54:06 > 0:54:09You made sure an INNOCENT man is charged!
0:54:09 > 0:54:10What do you know about anything?
0:54:10 > 0:54:13And what gives you the right to say that he's innocent?
0:54:13 > 0:54:15What have you got against Michael Farmer, except him being
0:54:15 > 0:54:18retarded enough for you to frame?!
0:54:18 > 0:54:19Argh!
0:54:22 > 0:54:24You just assaulted a police officer.
0:54:24 > 0:54:26Oh, no, no, no.
0:54:26 > 0:54:28- You're staying. - I'm leaving.
0:54:28 > 0:54:30No, no, let's talk about this. Just stay.
