UK Police Told to Use Wikipedia for Court Preparation
The Crown Prosecution Service is telling police officers to use Wikipedia to prepare for court cases.
Mike Finn, an expert witness on martial arts and weapons, told the Police Review he was involved in a case in the Midlands and asked to prepare a report on a weapon.
According to the Telegraph, Finn said: "The material they gave me had been printed out from Wikipedia.
"The officer in charge told me he was advised by the CPS to use the website to find out about the weapon and he was about to present it in court.
"I looked at the information and some of it had substance and some of it was completely made up."
Finn said he had heard of at least three other cases were police were told by the CPS to get onto Wikipedia. He added: "When an organisation like the CPS tells you to look at Wikipedia, you might believe it is some kind of authority. It is unsettling that potentially unsafe and inaccurate evidence could be presented in court."

British Police Brutality Exposed
The admission by London's police force that their officers horrifically assaulted a defenseless Muslim man was one of the blackest moments in recent British police history.
On Wednesday, the Metropolitan police agreed to pay Babar Ahmad £60,000 as well as his legal costs in compensation for the brutal beating their officers gave him.
Not only does this admission disclose the sadistic brutality and Islamophobia of some serving British police officers, it should open everyone's eyes to a cover-up and a catalogue of lies perpetrated by the highest levels of the police service. It should also serve as a warning that the British authorities' rhetoric about reaching out to Muslims is nothing but a sham.
