Rodric,
Please find associated a report from our Fraud Analyst, Helen Rose, in respect of
Lepton SPSO. This office doesn’t feature as part of our 2™ Sight Spot Reviews,
but the subject matter is Horizon (and indeed Credence) related. Could I ask
that you consider the report and feed any comments back, as it could be a
potential issue at some stage.
In summary, the specifics concern a ‘system reversal’ of a transaction following
a system failure. This is normal practice, but the Horizon logs (and Credence
logs) indicate that the reversal is an ‘existing reversal’, implying that the
reversal was manually entered by the clerk/Subpostmaster.
I think there’s a remote possibility that this could be a problem in terms of
using the data for evidence/prosecution purposes, but nevertheless it is still a
possibility. Myself or Helen are happy to talk through anything that requires
explanation.
