Ah, 30-15 Simon,
Well played.
Ok, fair do's.
Vincent (Met CID) wrote to Fraser (City CO) , so that's cross rank communication however there may have been a prior arrangement to do that in these cases.
You said it was addressed to Fraser of CID. Fraser wasn't head of City CID, MacWilliam was. So was it Fraser or CID?
Seeing as Warren visited Acting Commissioner Smith for the debrief the following day, he would have known Smith was acting up for the foreseeable (operational needs) and held the superior rank in this case. Obviously such correspondence to Fraser would have gone directly to Smith anyway in the formers absence. However the murder only occurred days before, he spoke to Smith days before, I therefore find it odd he should forget all that and address Fraser.
I shall trust you judgement on this one Simon, however I must say this letter as it stands today just doesn't sit right with me. I hope that will be rectified.
