Indeed, I know of two cases where the CPS didn't accept the 'I forgot it'
defence and successfully prosecuted the people concerned. One got 6 months
jail sentence and the other got 2 years. The cases are Nottinghamshire
cases and subject to public record.

Incidentally, if the police use tortuous interrogation techniques then they
commit a criminal offence themselves.
