I wonder what realistic chance the police saw that by raiding the flat they might find evidence involving a 29 year old crime committed?
Exactly my thoughts. The alleged ‘crime’ was carried out nearly thirty years ago in South Yorkshire, and they’re looking for evidence a couple of hundred miles away, in a place the ‘suspect’ not only wasn’t living in at the time, but wasn’t even accommodation, but commercial premises.
There would be no computer files, probably no clothing or other likely forms of ‘evidence’ that could yield anything at all that could incriminate anyone after all this time.
Captain Ahab would be well proud of a fishing expedition on this scale.
+1 My thoughts entirely, and did you see how many police cars went along for the ride?
