Mr. Brightside Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 I never understand why they say "a few bad apples" as if they don't know what the rest of the saying is. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do they specifically ask for sex pests and deviants on the application form? On the plus side, they are good at detecting wrong uns. Wonder what the clear up rate is? If up to 1% of the population have psychopathic traits, and up to 4% of the population are sociopathic, what sort of profession might seem appealing? The one where they give you cuffs, pepper spray and a batton probably. It's attractive to anyone who loves power, and consequently anyone with far right tendencies. My cousin is a police officer and a nicer guy you couldn't meet. Very much in the minority I'm guessing though. I remember when I was 19 and two officers followed me to my mum's flat at 1am. She answered the door and they pushed her out the way and turned her flat upside down looking for drugs while screaming in my face. Apparently wearing a hoodie and jogging meant I had drugs on me. I realised then they were mostly c***s at that point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only had 3 pills left so I tripple dunted and watched season 2 of the Darling Buds of May. That does remind me of a school mate who had a police hat in his flat. The cops chucked him in the back of the car where he stashed his undiscovered hash between the seats. Daft p***k left his polis hat on the seat too so he stuffed it in his jacket before they released him and his pal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother in law was filth at the time and she pinched his hat and lapel stuff. She got stopped by the proper polis and got taken to the station. Said brother in law got in a spot of bother for "loaning out" stuff and she got off with a slapped wrist for impersonating a police officer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was listening to a report about it on Radio Ulster last night. The head of the Recovery/Rescue team hinted very strongly that he thought she had been murdered and hidden somewhere rather than slipped into the water, while the police are stating "it is dangerous to speculate", and are still treating it as a missing person (who slipped into the water). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 It's a strange one but I think the police are (quite rightly) withholding stuff they know, it's making them look silly a wee bit though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin_Nevis Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 It does seem a bit weird that a physically fit, fairly young woman who was apparently a reasonable swimmer would just fall into a river and drown tbh. This has all the hallmarks of a Police f**k up and the Chief Constable making a mumbling apology in front of the cameras about "learning lessons" in 12 months time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the report I heard it's quite shallow next to the bank but there are rocks, and if she had slipped in there and hit the rocks she could have been knocked out/killed, but wouldn't necessarily have floated away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steelmen Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 35 minutes ago, Rugster said: Have they found the dug? yep, soon after and it was dry. you'd think the dog would have jumped in after her. its a really strange case, she was in the middle of a teams call and her phone was placed neatly on the park bench next to the dogs lead and harness. If I am in the park with the dog i'll let it off the lead but you don't take the harness off. The underwater searcher guy seems genuine enough when saying she's not in the water and he should know as that's what him and his company do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RH33 Posted February 10, 2023 Share Posted February 10, 2023 She's pretty much vanished into thin air. Apparently it's a slow flowing river as well. I think bodies sink before various forms decompensition makes them float again. I'm assuming the police are following other narratives that they aren't making public. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the same from this underwater search expert to be saying so quickly that she definitely didn't go into the water. Am I right in saying the family organised for him to come and help? The husband doesn't seem to have done any press conferences which the police like making suspects do to scope them out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
