Winston Silcott's compensation for police lies
demonare...@my-deja.com
attacking police with bricks and bottles. Teams of young police
officers, who knew they would never be charged, were meting out violent
retribution. One gang of police thugs included P C Blakelock. After
dishing out a good kicking they were confronted by an angry mob and
turned and legged it leaving P C Blakelock to fend for himself. In the
course of the violent conduct that followed P C Blakelock was
apparently killed - although whether one can believe the Sun about
attempts to hack his head off etc. is questionable.
The police officers reacted by finding an innocent patsy and framing
him - Winston Silcock who by all accounts ia a thoroughly nasty
individual. Remember the photo when they held his arms in the air and
dropped them to give that weird expression. They set him up and they
framed him and then ceased their investigation. They misled
Blakelock's wife by their condduct and they let society down. Silock's
lawyer, securing the publicity he seeks, pushed for compensation after
Silcock was exonerated by the Court - a decision that was not taken
lightly but in the face of the evidence which the Court held meant
Silcock's conviction could not stand. What Silcock is being
compensated for is the dishonesty of the police officers, including
Keith Blakelock's colleagues, who framed him even if only to justify in
their minds their conduct on the evening Blakelock died. I don't like
Silcock - no reason why perhaps the tabloids have got to me. It is a
shame that there is not some way Keith Blakelock's wife could have been
compensated for the distress caused to her by the lies and dishonesty
of his colleagues who left her husband to pay the price for their acts
of violence which would have gone unchecked by the judiciary and which
may explain why the police acted so violently in the knowledge they
would never be brought to book.
I don't like Bernie Grant either but his comments the day after the
riot were made with the knowledge of the obscene violence that went on
that night for which the residents would face potential charges and
prison whereas the police knew they were above the Law. Those who
fight wars sometimes suffer casualties.
Regrettably Winston Silcott is entitled to the compensation and rather
than criticise him or by implication the Court or the Met whose
solicitors advised them to settle out of Court, using public money, at
that level one might instead criticise the rentamouths who are now
telling what awful things happened to Blakelock that night and who have
poisoned the minds of those close to the events.

They still haven't got the dosage quite right, I see.

Well, this is a tale with nonsense coming hard and fast from all sides.

no knowledge as to what PC Blakelock may or may not have been like, and
did not want to tar him as a racist thug unjustly. I have been happy to
accept Ruth Hine's information that he was well respected by colleagues
and community alike.
