In the tragic case of Miss Jade Anderson, the MEN reported her identity a full 14 hours before the police announced the informal identification of the victem on their web site.
Said PC Plod "It seems only fair that we use their website to collect information and report it to the public as they have been monitoring our web site/twitter feed and doing the same for a long time."
Notwithstanding the sympathy we have for Jade's family, which goes without saying, we have to ask -is this the way policing will be done in the future -by the MEN.
Apoligies for using such a sad case to highlight the MEN reporting a persons identity -perhaps before police informed relatives.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely not meant to offend anyone.
Scrat, you could never offend anyone, you are far too nice...stalk stalk.
DeleteOn a more serious note I do agree, it was a crass move by the MEN.
Speaking of stalks, thanks -you reminded me I need to stake the cucumbers before their stalks bend over with the weight

Very sad state of affairs.
I got confused because 'we' could comment on this story on their FB site before their webshite.
Deletepoint 3. Do not really agree with you, I feel he's just whinging about the fact that no one reported anything earlier.
Not sure about point 3. I tend to drift off when he/she mentions the public sector - i.e. every post.
