Hi Bill,
She was shooting at tame and tethered ducks however. She was given a deliberate brief to brutalise the SFO (not difficult to do) so that Government could justify getting rid of Robert Wardle over the Saudi arms debacle. Her critique was very one-sided and missed a lot of points about the English way of prosecuting fraud. I will try and post my last article about this issue on my blog.
Best wishes, Rowan.
