the best policemen are policemen who can 'think' like a criminal

applies to lawyers aswell

 

Sorry Nick, but I think you are out of order bringing Gary Speed into this thread.

 

I.e. go after the easiest targets first.

If you've ever had the misfortune of having been burgled, you'll probably know that you have to keep hounding the coppers to come out, and then many hours later, someone comes round and asks some standard questions, and then you never hear from the again unless you keep on hounding them. Eventually, two weeks later, after its had time to rain, someone might turn up to look for finger prints, they'll spend five minutes there, before saying, 'no sorry, it looks like the weather's blown any chances of getting anything useful'.

However, if you happen to be an innocent person, fast asleep in bed with your missus as your kid sleeps soundly in the next room, then the coppers will waste no time in coming to harass you for fun based on vague phone call from a mobile phone that was once registered to your house, to a woman who had been evicted and repo-ed over a year before.

 

Damn right. Folly, edit your post mate, making Gary Speed synonymous with suicide is plain wrong.

 

Talking about being burgled .. a good friend of mine who is disabled with only one leg and in a wheel chair and in his late 70 s was burgled one night while he slept .. they broke in and lit candles for light, to see their way around his flat .. they robbed him of his credit cards , money , passport and some other valuable goods .. the whole place was ransacked and every thing that was in a drawer was on the floor by morning .. of course he called the police as he was in a bit of a state and very anxious .. nice of them to turn up the NEXT DAY 24 hours later ..,.. yep you heard me right,.. and said nowt they could do ... took a few particulars and a half hearted attempt at dusting for finger prints , .. and he never heard a word from them again .. he really could have done with some councelling and maybe some help from the social but it never came ..

 

I have to stick up for the police here. I went to a clients vacant property 2 years ago only to find the front door kicked in. As it was a vacant property I dialled 101. Spoke to a human being straight away. I explained the situation and was told an officer would be there within the hour. Which is what happened, the scene of crime officer turned up shortly after. Howevere, I had a call from the 101 people a couple of hours later, because according to their computer the house was in a totally differant locality to where it actually is.

 

No Ed I was there the whole time. I think it was the Crime Officer who confused the address.lol
