  Absolutely outrageous

As Jailhouse Lawyer points out, the jury have been told that an un-lawfull killing verdict at the Jean Charles de Menezes inquest is not possible. Total and utter bullshit.

From the Guardian piece :
The final questions ask the jury to select from nine possible factors that contributed to the shooting. These are: pressure on police following the July 7 suicide attacks; failure to provide police with better photographs of Osman; the failure to stop De Menezes before he reached the station; more general difficulties with correct identification; De Menezes' own behaviour on the day; poor communication of surveillance officers' views to command and firearms teams; the fact commanders did not know the precise location of firearms teams; shortcomings in communications systems between police teams on the ground; and a failure to get surveillance officers to stop De Menezes at the station.
If that is fact - then there should be a case for corporate manslaughter. John was a man who was slaughtered.
