Margaret Aspinall, whose 18-year-old son, James, was killed in the disaster and who was the last chair of the Hillsborough Family Support Group, described the trial and its outcome as a disgrace.
“It’s the cover-up of the cover-up of the cover-up,” she said. “Our loved ones went to a football match and were killed, then they and the survivors were branded hooligans, and we’ve been put through a 32-year legal nightmare looking for the truth and accountability. Now they’re saying the police were allowed to change statements and cover up at Taylor. The legal system in this country really has to change.”

Should be noted that there is now no legal impediment in speaking openly about the case or the people involved because as of this morning no one is on trial for the involvement in the unlawful killing of 96 people and the subsequent cover ups.

Metcalf's barrister argued that a serving Police Officer had "no legal duty to tell the whole truth". Wow. Just wow.
