Stuart Linnell

Available for over a year

The BBC has learned the Crown Prosecution Service spent more than £18,000 on the failed prosecution of Northamptonshire's former police and crime commissioner (PCC). In July, Adam Simmonds was found not guilty of sharing confidential information about a criminal investigation in to Conservative MP Peter Bone. This week, Mr Simmonds spoke to Stuart Linnell about the state of the CPS, the role of the PCC and his own future. Stuart started off by asking him how the court case has left him feeling.
