If they drop the case, the media will pounce. If they try the case with insufficient evidence the media will pounce. If they try the case and get a conviction, the media will pounce... Sort of a whine, whine situation :-) <strong>That's very clever MacDoc. This would be the type of case the police hate. If they drop the case, the media will pounce.

The lawyers for both parties would know; the parties themselves; the police and the publicists. The circle of potential leaks both friendly and unfriendly has quite a large circumference. As the plod would say - Who's got a motive and what is it? I would imagine that both the Herald and TV3 have scanners able to pick up police radio traffic, though such things are frowned upon.

Did the police give friendly media a heads-up? I sure hope not! <strong>Interesting point I2. It wouldn't be the first time, although for various reasons that were canvassed on a recent media7 programme, relations between the local constabulary and the reporters aren't as close as they once were. Come to think of it, we still don't know who tipped off the DomPost in the very first place a couple of months ago.
