Absolutely outrageous cover- up. I feel tremendous heartache for the families of the deceased. The scale of deception by those responsible is a disgrace! But, worse than that, was the heinous way the families were treated like criminals. The fact that it took 24 years for the truth to come out is appalling. God bless you Professor Scraton for your tenacity in pursuing the truth.
