Jersey care home murder claims discredited

JERSEY police have said they have ruled out suggestions that murders were committed at a former children’s care home at the centre of a massive abuse inquiry.

Yesterday the chief officer of Jersey Police was suspended pending an investigation into his role in the inquiry.

At a news conference, detectives said information put out by police about finds at the home which indicated that children might have been killed and then buried at the Haut de la Garenne home were inaccurate.
