Glenn Mulcaire, the News of the World hacker, could not be said
to have done any phone hacking under the instructions of the paper's
former chief reporter Neville Thurlbeck when Rebekah Brooks was editor,
the phone hacking trial heard.
Officers found there were 135 taskings by Thurlbeck between 1 September 2001 and 13 January 2003, but "it cannot be stated with any firmness" that the notes created by Mulcaire in relation to the requests were to do with "blagging or hacking", Detective Constable Nicolas Oskiewicz confirmed to the jury.
The court heard how the police categorised Mulcaire notes into three types – Category 1, with no firm evidence of blagging or hacking; Category 2, for efforts related to blagging; and Category 3, hacks or preparation for hacks.
The Jury heard Oskiewicz confirm that none of the Mulcaire/Thurlbeck notes that were found to be in Category 3 included pages on the Joanne Lees, whose boyfriend Peter Falconia was murdered in the Australian outback and Colin Stagg, who was wrongly charged and later acquitted of a murder.
In December, the jury heard that analysis of Mulcaire's notes concluded that only four published stories could be directly linked to phone hacking commissioned by Greg Miskiw – the head of the paper's special investigations unit during the editorship of Rebekah Brooks – between May 2000, when Brooks was appointed editor, and January 2003.
Detective Constable Richard Fitzgerald, the last witness on Monday, told the jury that five seconds was the "quickest Mulcaire was able to access a customer's account". This was using the Orange network in early 2006.
Vodafone data supplied to the police showed it would have taken 10 seconds, although there was independent expert evidence that it could have been done within six seconds
Virgin Media, 02 and T-Mobile would take 10 seconds
Brooks has pleaded not guilty to a conspiracy to hack phones.
The trial continues
