A Follow Up Review of CPS Casework with a Minority Ethnic Dimension. HM Crown Prosecution Service Inspectorate April 2004, pp. 74. This report, based on Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) casework, concludes that racists are escaping with lenient sentences because prosecutors "reduce sentences inappropriately" before they reach court or because they are handed to inexperienced practitioners at court. The Inspectorate observes some improvement over the situation in their previous report (April 2002), when they found that cases were being discontinued.
