You are mistaken - the Statute of Westminster 1931 and the ratification of said statute in Australia and New Zealand established the independence of several British dominions, including Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Each country is independent, and each is a country.

And since the US was around before 1931, it backs up the person who said we were oldfags.

>>> the police have no responsibility to give the recording in full to the defense

Yes they do. If it's later discovered they were withholding evidence, the defendent is automatically freed because he didn't get a fair trial. So the police have a responsibility to turn over everything (else they'd just be stupid).

It depends on whether or not there is exculpatory evidence on the tape and/or on the quality of the discovery motion. In many states, the police and prosecutors can tap dance around this with little or no concern for appellate reversal or civil suits.

The reason why worry kills more people than work is that more people worry than work.
