our correspondent angus crawford is here. tell us more about the case and its implications?is year. a man called stephen nicholson was sent to prison last week. why? he failed to disclose the password to his facebook account and investigators believe that account may include some highly relevant information to the murder inquiry. although facebook has agreed to put a preservation order on that account, it won't or can't simply hand over the information which means hampshire police have got to start a long, drawn—out, expensive process on something called the mutual legal assistance treaty which could take months. as you said in your introduction there has been huge criticism from lucy mchugh‘s mother and commissioner dick, saying this simply isn't good enough. facebook in its responses it is a terrible case but they are working closely with law enforcement, using established legal mechanisms but the problem is this comes one day after the home secretary called out the big tech companies for not doing enough. rightly or wrongly, this story may only really reinforce perception
