The four RUC officers in the land rover at the scene were heavily criticized for not getting out of their vehicle and intervening or taking any other actions (such as calling for back up or firing shots into the air) to try to prevent the prolonged attack on Hamill, with accusations being leveled that they did not intervene because it was a Catholic who was being attacked. The RUC itself was also criticised for initially claiming in press releases that there was a riot between two large groups; then afterwards claiming it was a large group attacking a group of four. RUC officer Gordon Cooke was also the subject of a subsequent internal investigation where he was accused of neglecting to preserve the crime scene, as well as failing to arrange the prompt arrests of identified suspects (or the seizure of their clothes for forensic examination), which resulted in loss of valuable forensic and identification evidence that led to a number of persons being acquitted at court for offences linked to the death of Robert Hamill.He was subsequently exonerated of all allegations. Diane Hamill, sister of Robert, also claimed the RUC had harassed her in the lead up to the trial of Marc Hobson, citing incidents such as blocking her in a car park with their vehicles and following her on foot while she was out shopping.

Judge Lynch instructed the prosecution to clarify exactly what criminal liability Atkinson had admitted to by his guilty plea, as although he had confessed to making a false statement about who made a phone call, it was unclear if he had any responsibility in terms of interfering with the actual police investigation into the death of Robert Hamill. Atkinson was thereafter released on bail, with sentencing scheduled for early June 2024.

on the same day, RUC detectives asserted that three different witnesses had observed him fighting at the scene of the incident. One witness, who named Hobson both by his own name and his nickname of "Muck", claimed to have seen him fighting two separate men. Another witness, who was a police officer at the scene, described Hobson by the clothes he was wearing along with an accurate physical description, kicking Robert Hamill while he was on the ground. The third witness named five people, one of whom was Hobson, who he saw kicking and jumping on Robert Hamill while he lay defenceless on the ground. Hobson denied all accusations.

Atkinson's house on 27 April 1997 at 08:37 am, regarding the identity of the person making the call. While Atkinson had previously given a statement that James Michael Robert McKee was the person who made the call, it had been alleged that Atkinson himself had called the home of Allister Hanvey (who was later charged with Robert Hamill's murder) to advise him to destroy the clothing he was wearing at the time of the incident.
