Ooooo Truth-be-known I like it
I wonder if they read this to the kids during citizenship classes? I’ll ask my boys (they’re in bed). I think it’s very interesting, bringing out that 7th point.
Ive had mostly good experiences of the old bill. A member of my family and her little girl were brutally attacked in their home and the police did everything they could. I mean they were really exceptional. The perp fled abroad and he took a paracetamol overdose. The nearest liver unit was London kings cross....the very ward I worked on. He was flown back to the UK and arrested at Heathrow. I took leave as I couldn’t work on the unit with him there, I couldn’t risk having to care for him.
On one occasion my husband was mugged and beaten up, the guy took £80 and our house keys. We got the keys back but not the money!!! The tragic thing is they caught him and I tried to tell an officer how dangerous he was .....get this, the cop was angry with me and had pity for the culprit since he was only 18!! Problem was, he got out and 6 weeks later his next victim wasn’t so lucky....he died. I was going to go to the press but I thought it would only hurt the family more.
Two under cover cops also saved my dogs life (when we were much younger). She was run over as she was crossing the road with my husband. It as very late at night and we needed to get her to the Blue cross....fast. They pulled up, shoved her in the car and blue lighted to the Blue cross in Victoria. I could have kissed them.
