Two undercover police officers have raised “serious concerns” about a decision not to prosecute a potential murder suspect they secretly recorded making an alleged confession, according to confidential documents seen by the Guardian.
The target of the surveillance operation was at the time considered a suspect in the death of Darren Poole, a 38-year-old painter and decorator who was found dead in his flat in Birkenhead, Wirral, in August 2015. A coroner ruled Poole had been unlawfully killed.
