If that is the case there will be a very full and thorough investigation into the crowd control practices,training and command/orders on the day.I will be very surprised if a great deal of that is allowed to come out in public though.

Having never been subject to disciplinary proceedings, I'm not sure. I think they use the balance of probability rule, ie, if it's probable then that's enough, where as the judicial system needs to be "beyond all reasonable doubt".
