Unlikely headlines

The BBC website is carrying the headline:

R Kelly 'sex video' will be shown

I was really disappointed to learn that this was not an exposé of Opus Dei's seamier side. Still, being a minister in Blair's cabinet would probably satisfy the deepest need for pain and humiliation.

A question

Earlier this week a guy was shot during a police raid on a house in London. Apparently it will take "some months" before the IPCC issue their report on the shooting. Why? The only issues of relevance to the IPCC investigation are who fired, why and should they have done. The sum total of relevant evidence is half a dozen or so witnesses and a ballistics report on one gunshot. I can't see any reason why it should take more than a week to issue a report. What am I missing?

The cynical side of me says it takes so long because TPTB want the incident long forgotten before anything official is said about it. Nobody will comment until the report is out so by spinning out the process the IPCC makes criticism virtually impossible.
