STATEMENTS & SOURCES

It's important you correctly identify all participants in the news report you are putting together.

For example, Billie Ayling is the First Attending Officer from the Scene of Crime Unit. Her job is to organise the other SOCOs and to liaise with the media and the public. 

You can download the college's official statement to the public from here. The footage requires some trimming before you can use it.

If you want to include a statement from the member of college Site Staff who found the body, you can download that here . The footage requires some re-sizing before you can use it.
