In 2006 Clive Goodman was being charged with intercepting voicemail. In December 2005 suspicions voiced aids began in the Prince of Wale’s private offices at Clarence House. It seemed that someone had been listening to the voicemail of members of the royal household. The royal editor, Clive Goodman and Glenn Mulcaire, a private investigator were arrested. Convictions secured that the detective had done their work after the two were jailed pleading guilty to hacking of royal aided and named celebrities. Police appear to have persuaded prosecutors to ‘ringfence’ evidence. One interpretation is that this was a suppressing the names of hacking victims. There are questions over whether those who may have been victims were warned by police. In 2009 there was a disclosed agreement that ‘police would inform’ any potential victims not reflected in the charges brought.
Reaction: This news item shows that the British tabloids will do anything to get information from celebrities and the Royal family. The paparazzi in England can be very brutal. If you are a celebrity or a Royal the British paparazzi will follow you everwhere. In this news item they tell that there are more victims who the perpetrators have been listening to their voicemail. The police have failed to find all possible perpetrators and that lead also to a failure to who have been victims of voicemail inception. It seems weird that the some victims were not even informed by the police.
