What was the procedure for prosecuting criminals in England between the World Wars?

Upvote:4

I believe that it wasn't until fairly recently that the Crown Prosecution Service took over most prosecutions. It is highly likely that prior to this point, but after the establishment of police forces, the Police were responsible for prosecutions; though whether it was individual officers who made the relevant arrests, or specialists within a Force, I have no idea. Certainly hints in that direction are given by the CPS history on their own website; to quote briefly:

1962 A Royal Commission on the police said that it was not acceptable for the police to use the same officers to investigate and prosecute cases.
