Part 11/16:
Multiple official inquiries, such as those led by figures like Tom Crow, are described as shams, lacking the statutory powers to compel testimony or examine evidence thoroughly. Reports have documented failures, yet they often conclude there was no deliberate cover-up, contradicting overwhelming documented evidence.
The Telford inquiry, for instance, is depicted as another whitewash that found fault but avoided exposing political and police collusion. The whistleblower stresses that lessons are claimed to be learned but are rarely implemented effectively, allowing the cycle of abuse and cover-up to persist.
