The Liverpool parade crash and the Southport killer – Should police identify suspects?
The truth behind true crime. This week we were ready to talk about the disinformation and rumour that provoked the Southport riots. But then another shocking incident raised similar questions. A car drove into a crowd of celebrating Liverpool FC fans – and unlike in the Southport case, police released details about the suspect. Is it right to partially identify suspects if it calms public anger? Does it set a dangerous precedent? And how do police handle a major emergency when passions run high? Ex-Met Commissioner Bernard Hogan-Howe and former Mirror editor Alison Phillips look at a nightmare scenario.
