What a terrible thing to happen to a person doing their job :( :(
Hopefully they will get their just desserts
Burglars turned murderers.
What is the world coming to >:( >:(
-
Condolences to the family of the officer, but, were the police conducting a "high speed" pursuit
-
It does say in the article that they were being pursued by officers,
I do not understand the mentality of someone who would run down another person least of all a police officer even if they were only trying to evade a stinger
In my younger days I was well known to some of the local traffic officers and paid my dues when I was caught doing wrong but as much as I did not want to get caught I would never have run down / driven at an officer, maybe it's an age thing? (I was a late seventies / eighties boy racer)
Sounds like a decent chap, I hope his wife and kids get the support they need at this terrible time
Rest In Peace P.C. David Phillips

He was trying to use a stinger, he/she mounted central curb and drove straight at him. :'(
Bastards >:(
RIP :(
-
Absolute scum. Sadly, if and when they are found, there'll be a million excuses and it will be let off lightly.
RIP, thoughts with his family and colleagues. Everyone who signs up, be they 7 stone of female or a me-sized rugby playing hard nut, knows the risk of violence is ever present - but using a vehicle is a whole different level.
-
That surely would be manslaughter minimum? I really do hope they catch those responsible.I wouldn't mind betting that someone else knows who the culprit is and should if they have any humanity come forward with the information,but I doubt they will.Condolences to family,friends and colleagues of the officer concerned.
-
Two arrested earlier today.
-
I bet they treat them with kid gloves because the limp wristed human rights lawyer will be along to advise them to answer all questions with the stock reply ''no comment'' Personally I'd plug them into the mains supply and reward them with jolt of volt as a reward every time they said it....it's a good thing that I'm such a gentle Liberal soul....no pain ,no gain ::)
-
There may be something to be said from the days when I was growing up when people were arrested,taken to the cells and then began "helping police with their enquiries" ::)

They weren't very good at negotiating stairs, were they? ;D
-
Wife & two children left behind lives devastated by scum who will demand their human rights once incarcerated , the two arrested are aged 18 & 30 hope they rot in hell.
-
A murder enquiry was launched so we can only hope they don't get off with a lesser charge, I expect his colleagues and the general public would like them to feel the whole force of the law.
In my opinion it would be better if they simply ceased to exist
-
Just heard two females aged 19 & 34 arrested , probably assisting them probably can't see any bad in them , typical robbers dogs I suspect.
-
Can only hope that proper justice will be done.I never understand how lawbreakers immediately claim their human rights[and get them] when they've not given a hoot about the human rights of their victims.To me in such circumstances their human rights should be forfeit.
-
Total of 6 people now arrested... 2 on suspicion of murder .. 4 for assisting an offender.
I wonder how they sleep at night ??

One man has been charged with his murder and several other offences, a second man has been charged with the lesser offences.
Really glad to see that the memorial fund set up by the police federation has raised over £79000 :y well on its way to its target of £100K and hopefully far beyond. No amount of money can bring him back but it is one less thing to worry about especially with two young daughters to bring up

Wait now for the lawyers to get that charge reduced to causing death by dangerous driving for a guilty plea. >:(

I see that the accused turned up at court smiling for the camera's,plenty of remorse there then >:( >:( >:(

Scum breeds scum. No morals, no ambition, and anyone that says no to them is an arsehole. They are entitled...

If he's that much of cant then he should be released indefinitely into Police custody as a mop or football.

Entitled to what exactly? Apart from a slow and painful demise :-\

Personally, I fully support the correct professional procedures being followed to the letter as this is what separates us from 3rd rate, 3rd world dictatorships. They are innocent until proven guilty.
But once found guilty our prisons are far too soft and we should bring back 8 hours hard labour, 5 days a week, for many types of prisoners. I've heard making them build a sandbag wall by taking sandbags from one end and placing them at the double at the other is very rewarding for the prisoners and the guards 'encouraging' them. It makes the prisoners feel their life is not being wasted in jail, by seeing with all their daily hard effort the sandbag wall going round and round the exercise yard, by the day, month, year and decade. :y :y :y
A minimum amount of a minimum 'quality' must be build per day and week to receive any basic 'privileges'.
Reading about this WWII British 'Glasshouse' system even the most hostile, arrogant and badly behaved prisoners, 'realised' the 'benefits' of conforming especially as when they 'misbehaved', one of guards would 'accidentally' lean on the wall with his boot, so it had to be 'rebuilt' to count towards the daily and weekly quotas and you continued the day's work until that quota was fulfilled :y :y :y
-
With you entirely Rods. Beatings and torture aren't the way to treat anyone, if and when they get released they will only be angrier and set to do more damage.
Gentle training as you suggest, much more civilised and if anything more of a punishment as it requires effort on the part of the prisoner...

We used to have a failsafe method to stop re-offending for murderers.

The death penalty may not be the ideal solution, although no one ever came back to murder again
More than can be said for killers given a life sentence only to be released and kill again

Not very it's true, but that said I still wouldn't support the death penalty.
Life sentences should mean exactly that though. No parole, no early release, no rights, just banged up in a bare cell for the rest of your days so you can sit there and comtemplate what you did wrong.
-
Well said Sir T
Life should mean life with no chance of parole, early release or any other shenanigans designed to let people out who should remain incarcerated for the rest of their life

If someone's on the run knowing that if caught, theyre facing a death sentence, then they have nothing to lose. The risk of them killing more people to keep their freedom is then higher. Doesn't stop people murdering in the USA...

Just life meaning life might be a start, but that's too expensive.
Oh, and if everyone else is too civilised to pull the lever, I'll do it. :)

But there's the thing. It's only expensive because we make it expensive. A bare cell, with basic food dosn't have to cost much. ;)
I bet those Penitentiaries in the US with the rows of cells with bars on the front don't cost much. ::)

$47,102 in 2008/9...
According to... http://www.lao.ca.gov/PolicyAreas/CJ/6_cj_inmatecost
Against £36,808 per prison space in 2012/13
According to... http://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=incarceration%20costs%20per%20inmate&source=web&cd=2&ved=0CB4QFjABahUKEwjH7rPG-LrIAhWBPRQKHQhGB_M&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gov.uk%2Fgovernment%2Fuploads%2Fsystem%2Fuploads%2Fattachment_data%2Ffile%2F251272%2Fprison-costs-summary-12-13.pdf&usg=AFQjCNFFmjC2kHMvv5XqBjm4TOMy0gDcbg&bvm=bv.104819420,d.d24
Not much in it :-\

California is a 'Namby Pamby' state! ::) Texas does it for $21,390, Louisiana does it for $17,486 and Kentucky does it for $14,603! :y
If you're gonna go to Jail in the States make sure its in New York where they'll spend $60,076 banging you up for a year! ;)
Of course the costs of banging people up depend on the prison population as a whole, so California has a much larger prison population than Kentucky. 167276 Vs 21,347.

I suspect land prices have a lot to do with that variance, too..

To quote Mr Loaf...
On March 6th, 1836 the walls of the Alamo fell
to the Mexican army. After a 12-day siege, the
troops of Santa Ana were victorious but too
exhausted to hold on and the Texans won the
war. It's further from El Paso to Texarkana,
then from New York to Chicago. And when it
joined the Union, Texas was the biggest state*.
Yeah, everything from Texas is big, larger than
life and none bigger than little Marvin Aday. So
big his daddy called him Meat Loaf. He grew
into a big man, with a big voice. And he sings
big songs and has big hits. You can try and
tear him down.

Economies of scale clearly don't apply when running US prisons. :-\

House prices out there (I look from time to time) are depressing - so cheap for what is effectively a mansion.. damn them. Anyhoo.. back to hangings and so on.
