Given yesterday's salvo from Pete's camp and our
commitment, I'm confident there will be a positive
resolution. But you make an interesting point about
the police's interest in letting it fade - they won't
be too keen about having to admit they allowed a leak
that slandered a great man's reputation.
Someone mentioned that they might be under pressure to prosecute Pete as an
example, but it's embarrassing if they didn't find enough evidence. In that
case, they're sort of between a rock and a hard place, and it's in their
best interest to let be until some of the pressure subsides. However, some
other folks have pointed out that it was several months before charges were
filed against Gary Glitter.
