Bigmarco:- ................................ wrongful arrest by the police.

I have searched on the internet. I cannot find any reference to the police paying compensation. Newspapers (who like a lot of other people) said he was guilty, have paid compensation for their libels.

…………………………. I expect that the police have denied liability and argued that the arresting officer had a reasonable suspicion to justify the arrest ‘to allow the prompt and effective investigation of the offence or of the conduct of the person in question’ (s.24(5)(e) Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984),


SimonH So, is your comment about the fact that they are being forced into pleading guilty subjective or objective

It's probably objective
"Objective information or analysis is fact-based, measurable and observable."

Facts they were arrested, they did claim duress, and from what we know the standard of Justice exercised in some countries is somewhat less than most Brits would expect. But, I am prepared that some may say it’s Subjective too.

Pardon me John but I thought when the Police arrested somebody on suspicion of murder who they subsequently set free, then the term wrongful arrest is appropriate.
As regards damages I don't believe the Police actually libelled him so that's why the media settled their claims quickly.
However the letter from the Chief Constable is effectively an admission of some wrong doing and the sum of money they paid him for damage to his property has satisfied him.
