No, not paranoia. I'm pretty certain most of it is planted.
They tried that trick on those two poor lads from Forest Gate. They also planted those smear stories about being put up in 'luxury' hotels while they repaired their house. Luxury - King's Cross ????
So it's not just me who's noticed this strangely popular phenomenon amongst people arrested for other offences that don't stand up. I was wondering if it was my paranoia.

There's that scandal with the cloned credit cards where lots of people have taken the caution, where they never visited the sites and nothing was actually found on their machines, just to avoid the publicity.
Then there's a septic judge presiding over a case at the moment whose just had some deeply offensive material found on his website, worse than the stuff he's currently trying...
You may find that he'll be in the news again soon.
Kiddy Porn "discovered" on his computer...

Still, it's reassuring to know the wooden-are finally getting their heads around technology, even if it is so they can fit people up.
In the Eighties I had a Punk-New-Age-Traveller-With-A-House-As-Well-As-A-Bus friend who was also a bit of a dealer.....The rest of the Police charged in, trampling over their colleague (they didn't even try to jump over) without so much as a by-your-leave
Any time you do, you could be in for a bit of rough house
In the Eighties I had a Punk-New-Age-Traveller-With-A-House-As-Well-As-A-Bus friend who was also a bit of a dealer, and who had trained his two Rottweilers to attack anybody in a uniform unless ordered otherwise (it used to scare the crap out of Traffic Wardens when he came down the street).
One day the Police turned up and started breaking down his front door. He rushed there and got his shoulder against it just as a copper had managed to get his arm through the gap - whereupon one of the dogs turned up and, recognising the malevolent nature of the arm, bit hard and dragged it (and the rest of said copper) through the door, throwing my friend to the ground a safe distance behind the door, but leaving the copper lying in the doorway with a dog attached to him.
