From The Metro:
Mr Jefferies said: ‘It provides an important conclusion to the whole aftermath of what I had to go through following my arrest. ‘As the letter itself explains it provides the public vindication which was not given at the time I was released from police bail. Vincent Tabak was found guilty of murdering Joanna Yeates ‘Although the letter is addressed to me and is therefore expressing regret at what I had to endure, the letter also implicitly provides the public acceptance that the events didn’t just affect me but affected a large circle of my relatives and friends.’

Recap Nick Gargan:
It's not a letter of apology, it is a letter that acknowledges that things might have been done differently. The situation is very clear, the arrest of Christopher Jefferies was integral and necessary part of the investigation and I've no criticism of that decision. Er.. Nor indeed the way in which it was carried out.
On reflection, in the light of our conversation with Mr Jefferies since, what we have come to realise, is that we might have been quicker in making it clear that he was no longer a suspect.
Now it's not ordinary Police practice, to release details, a press release to say that someone isn't a suspect anymore. But then again this wasn't an ordinary case and Mr Jefferies, had been subjected to a campaign of vilification in the press,. It was within our gift to reduce that by making an earlier announcement that he was no longer a suspect and on reflection we think that er.. we think that might have been done.

Interesting.... I've just checked that the image has shown up and I copied the image address, but what I have got here is only part of the letter that is on the ITV website, even though the image I see is clearly the full letter... Or is it? Is it 2 images together?
I'll attach the full image of the letter:
Anyway... The letter clearly indicates an apology, It states that the "Police" are 'SORRY" even though in the interview CC Nick Gargan clearly tells us that it is not a letter of apology...
The article states letter.. But this has been emailed, the information on the bottom of the page states;
C/V1 877 letter to Mr Jefferies re apology.doc_289985_1 I went back to check... and yes, it is two individual images
Each with their own jpg number... How Odd!
I will still attach what is the full image I have screen shot....
Now this brings even more questions.... has someone made this document up and married 2 seperate letters?
Which letter is the original, is the top or bottom image??
I write as I think quite often, and find things, like these 2 married individual images, I was just originally going to put up the image I had screen shot once I attached the image, but when i realised I could copy and paste the url, I did a direct copy of image, this is how I discovered it was indeed 2 images and not one....
I'll still attach the image I have screen shoot, then edit my post so it appears on my post....
Now why would ITV show us a letter that is clearly two images married together? Why hasn't anyone said anything about this letter before?
I'm quite stunned , I didn't expect that when I started writing this post.... My original reason to write the post was to state that the letter says "Sorry"... and clearly CC Nick Gargan on the TV interview states that the Police never apologised...
That married letter deserves a
Where did ITV obtain this letter?
I'm amazed here, I don't know what to say now.....
Here are the 2 individual URLs for the 2 images:

[ the letter also implicitly provides the public acceptance that the events didn’t just affect me but affected a large circle of my relatives and friends.’
