Steve Kelly: Jury should have decided Bettison case

Steve Kelly, whose brother Michael died in the Hillsborough disaster, has said that a jury should have decided on the case of a former police chief charged with misconduct in a public office. Sarah Whitehouse QC, for the Crown Prosecution Service, said on Tuesday at Preston Crown Court that the proceedings against Sir Norman Bettison would be discontinued. The charges against Sir Norman all relate to alleged lies he told about his role in the aftermath of the 1989 Hillsborough tragedy.
