A request to provide the
Leo Simmons tape
The Bermuda police know precisely how to request evidence
if their require it, their are not adverse to asking me for it and are fully aware that I
respond favourably to such requests:

Dear Mr. Swift
Re: Leo Simmons -
Tape & Papers
Your facsimile letter of 15 June 1993,
refers
Mr. Kim White will only release the
tape and envelope, referred to in receipt No 0924, on production of a written signed
authorization from you. In order to proceed with this aspect of the enquiry I would
be grateful if you would see fit to forward such authorization to me at your earliest
convenience.
Thank you for your attention to this
request.
Yours sincerely

I supplied the necessary authorization, the tape was
released to the police.
But why is Allan Bissell only requesting the 'evidence' I
possess in relation to this aspect of the enquiry? What of the other evidence?
According to the C.O.P (September 1998):
"It should be noted that the aggrieved officer
declined during the investigation to provide any substantial evidence to validate his
claims of impropriety and misconduct"
This is blatantly untrue. No one wanted the
'evidence'. My complaint was buried and this is firmly supported by both the C.O.P
and the Governor's office declining to acknowledge receipt of my latter last year
providing 'new evidence', let alone acting on it.
