One to watch: Operation Elveden

Daily Mail Article: Senior Met Detective Charged

and then, last month, she pleads "Not Guilty".  Operation Elveden: DCI April Casburn in court
Detective Chief Inspector April Casburn, 53, has been charged with "misconduct in public office".  She is former head of the secretive National Terrorist Financing Investigation Unit and would have had access to the output from the regulated sector's Suspicious Activity reporting regime.
She has become the first person to be charged under Operation Elveden inquiry into bribing of officials as she is alleged to have offered information to the now defunct "News of the World" newspaper back in September 2010.

I'm going to be keeping an eye on this case as it develops.  It's central to this blog's raison d'etre.
