The shootings are initially investigated by other members of the RUC, and the Director of Public Prosecutions for Northern Ireland decides to bring prosecutions. At the first trial, Constable John Robinson admits to having been instructed to lie in his statements, and that other witnesses had similarly altered their stories to provide justification for opening fire on Grew and Carroll. When Robinson is found not guilty, the resulting public outcry causes RUC Chief Constable John Hermon to ask John Stalker to investigate the killings. On 5 June 1986, just before Stalker is to make his final report, he is removed from his position in charge of the inquiry.
