So 6 months or so ago, the police executed a search warrant on my house.
I was charged with:
producing class A drugs
possessing class A drugs
possessing things used in a crime
I was interviewed at my house. I have only just recently received a copy of the recording. I specifically remember making certain statements that may have had the entire recording thrown out. The recording was then terminated.
The recording I have listened to has this part edited out.
Is it strange for the police to not give me this recording on the day? It had to be requested from the police prosecutors and has only just surfaced recently.
The recording is in 2 parts, is this normal? The first part stops just before I made my statement. The second part is just the wrap-up.
So I guess the only evidence I have is the unlikelihood of both of the events occurring in the same case.
I will look into whether or not I can have the recording analysed to prove this.
So is this a big deal under Criminal Law or not? Regardless of whether or not what I said on the recording is important, it is still pretty dodgy to alter a recording at all.
I will literally pay for myself and the police to take a polygraph about this just to prove that they cut the recording short.
Please let me know if this is worth pursuing.
Regards
