A bit of a boob

Oh dearie me

A Missouri man has been arrested after allegedly carrying out a robbery on a petrol station kiosk by getting his female accomplice to flash her breasts at the clerks as a distraction.

Original to say the least.

Laron Pearson, 21, was taken into custody on Tuesday after showing up at the station three weeks after the original crime, when workers called the police to identify him as the same man according to the Kansas City Star.

And I couldn’t help myself in tampering with the charge

Pearson is charged with first-degree Boobery robbery.

Ist Trial by Jury. FAIL

old bailey

 

I had to laugh. This landmark case failed at the first hurdle. The accused has absconded!

Scotland Yard warned the public to beware of ''dangerous'' Blake, 57, after he disappeared from the Royal Courts of Justice, in central London.

For Christ's sake, if he's that dangerous, how could the Police LOSE him.

Full story here.

Face/palm

It's still a travesty of justice

Referring to my last post: Another stupidity below.

A man who found a loaded gun linked to a gangland shooting was told by Scotland Yard to carry it across south London to a police station.
What's the difference between the two cases?

In one case a person is told to carry the firearm to the police station even though he was in danger from gang members.

The other case is the ex soldier who voluntarily takes a sawn off shot gun, dumped in his garden, to a police station, and faces five years imprisonment.

Answer: No difference. They are both caused by the incompetance of the Police and the CPS. Oh and the Judge who should have defied the stupidity of this ridiculous law and thrown the case out.

*Must rebudget as I only bought enough piano wire for the politicos*

Please make them stop

As far as I can see from reading this article it doesn't pay you to report anything to the Police anymore.

Mary Cooke, 27, was visited by police after she called 999 to report that she had nearly been run down by a speeding car.

CCTV

I was just idly browsing, when I stumbled upon this on the Liberty website.

In the past decade the Home Office has spent 78% of its crime prevention budget on CCTV, before assessing its effectiveness in deterring or detecting crime.


78% of their crime prevention budget! No wonder you never see a Police Officer on the street. A quick look at the home office website to find that the cost for all those cameras came to a figure of £170,000,000.

If you look at the average Plods pay, that equates to over 5600 extra police we could have patrolling our streets.

Or , hell, 8500 PCSOs
