Rebekah Brooks, the former head of Rupert Murdoch’s British newspaper arm, has been charged with perverting the course of justice over the News of the World phone hacking scandal.
Brooks was charged with concealing material from detectives, conspiring to remove boxes of archive records from Mr Murdoch’s London headquarters, and hiding documents, computers and other electronic equipment from police.
The maximum sentence for perverting the course of justice is life imprisonment.
Also charged were Brooks’ racehorse-trainer husband Charlie Brooks, her secretary, and other staff from News International, including her driver and security officials from the British newspaper arm of Mr Murdoch’s News Corp media empire.
The charges are the first since police re-launched an investigation into alleged illegal practices at News Corp’s British newspapers, following accusations the extent of wrongdoing had been covered up.
“I have concluded … there is sufficient evidence for there to be a realistic prospect of conviction,” Alison Levitt, principal legal adviser to the UK’s Crown Prosecution Service, said.
“All these matters relate to the ongoing police investigation into allegations of phone hacking and corruption of public officials in relation to the News of the World and The Sun newspapers.”
‘Weak and unjust’
Brooks and her husband released a statement confirming the charges.
“We deplore this weak and unjust decision. After the further unprecedented posturing of the CPS, we will respond later today after our return from the police station,” they said.
Brooks presided over the News of the World during the time when dozens voicemails, including those of murdered schoolgirl Millie Dowler, were hacked to provide stories for the tabloid.
Dubbed by some as Mr Murdoch’s “fifth daughter”, Brooks edited the News of the World from 2000 to 2003 and went on to become the first female editor of the Sun daily tabloid, Britain’s most widely read newspaper, for six years.
Rebekah Brooks between July 6 and 19, 2011, conspired with Charles Brooks, Cheryl Carter, Mark Hanna, Paul Edwards, Daryl Jorsling and persons unknown to conceal material from officers of the Metropolitan Police Service.
Charge 2 – Conspiracy to pervert the course of justice
Rebekah Brooks and Cheryl Carter between July 6 and 19, 2011, conspired together permanently to remove seven boxes of material from the archive of News International.
Charge 3 – Conspiracy to pervert the course of justice
Rebekah Brooks, Charles Brooks, Mark Hanna, Paul Edwards and Daryl Jorsling conspired together and with persons unknown, between July 15 and 19, 2011, to conceal documents, computers and other electronic equipment from officers of the Metropolitan Police Service.
Long-running scandal
The news is also embarrassing for British prime minister David Cameron, who was close friends with Brooks and her husband.
Police re-launched an investigation in January last year into claims journalists at the News of the World routinely hacked into the phones of celebrities, politicians and victims of crime to generate front-page stories.
They are also investigating whether staff hacked into computers and made illegal payments to public officials, including the police, to get ahead in their reporting.
The action against Brooks comes as Mr Murdoch is increasingly under fire in Britain. He has been forced to close one newspaper, withdraw a major takeover bid for a TV station and been described by a parliamentary committee report as someone who is not fit to run a major international company.
The phone-hacking scandal first broke six years ago when the royal correspondent from the News of the World and a private detective were arrested and later jailed for hacking the phones of aides to the royal family.
News International maintained the practice was limited to one rogue reporter until that defence crumbled last year as detectives reopened their investigation amid claims their initial probe had been insufficient.
The explosive saga has shone a light on close ties between the media, British politicians and the police, with Brooks one of the central characters.
More than 160 staff are now working on one of the biggest investigations ever carried out by London police, and almost 50 people have been arrested.
