Nottinghamshire detectives watched almost 800 hours of CCTV footage in their investigation into the murder of Michael Anton O'Connor
Nottinghamshire detectives watched almost 800 hours of CCTV footage in their investigation into the murder of Michael Anton O'Connor. A jury at Nottingham Crown Court found nine defendants guilty of the 31-year-old’s murder and two people guilty of assisting an offender murder following a 33-week trial.
Describing the murder probe as “undoubtedly the most complex investigation” he’d worked on during his 26 years in the police service, Det Ch Insp Routledge said: “The investigation was almost non-stop for a year following the tragic events of the day Michael was killed and leading up to the trial. "There was an inundation of detectives from various departments across the force, including from public protection and CID. Then we had our colleagues at the East Midlands Special Operations Unit which has experienced detectives from all of the region’s five forces."
“It was a hugely complex investigation – not least because the night itself saw a number of incidents reported in a very short space of time. There was a fight in the street, another incident where someone was attacked with a baseball bat and a handgun, a third incident of a car being set on fire with people running away from it, and a fourth incident of a woman claiming she had been carjacked at gunpoint.
"Therefore, an awful lot of the work we had to do was painstaking. We had to work hard to get those forensic hits and identifications. There’s CCTV evidence but it doesn’t show the actual attack, so again we had to do a lot of painstaking work to present the jury with a clear picture of what happened that night using the evidence that was available to us.
