#1 The authorities have always lied to control public opinion, this time there were far too many witnesses. The real question should be are the higher ups that stupid?? If so, we all need to worry!

#2 As I recall, it was "eye witness" reports in the media that contained info about the bag, vaulting the turnstile, heavy winter coat etc.
Since the cops get their info from interviewing eye witnesses, why wouldn't they think all those things were the case?

#3 JC,
The cops were there. The cops also have access to the video cameras and recorders. I can understand the confusion and mis-statements for a day or two, but if ITV didn't dig for real facts, we still wouldn't know.

#7 SPOD,
Did you check the photo at the link? He is clearly wearing a light jacket, not a "bulky winter coat".
