Hillsborough: Officers and lawyer accused of altering police statements to ‘minimise blame’ Chiara Giordano © Provided by The Independent Two retired South Yorkshire Police officers and a former lawyer have been accused of altering accounts to minimise the blame on the force in the aftermath of the Hillsborough disaster. Former chief superintendent Donald Denton, 83, retired detective chief inspector Alan Foster, 74, and Peter Metcalf, 71, a former solicitor for the force, are alleged to have perverted the course of justice following the tragedy at the FA Cup semi-final on 15 April 1989, in which 96 Liverpool fans died. A trial at the temporary Nightingale court at the Lowry Theatre in Salford heard Mr Metcalf advised on what amendments should be made to statements about the day of the disaster, while Mr Denton and Mr Foster followed his advice and changed the accounts.
