Quote Of The Month

The irrepressible DumbJon on the Claudia Lawrence investigation:
"Bear in mind that by spreading things out over months the filth has ensured that each of these guys has been left with five figure legal bills. They'll also have had their houses turned over - almost literally in fact as this exert from 2010 shows:
Police confirm they have spent two days searching a house about 10 miles from Claudia's home as a result of a "recent development".
Two days! Either this guy lives in a palace or he got the full 'Lord Bramhall' treatment, aka Smear Theater. In fact, the police claimed to have carried out 1,270 searches of properties in the first months alone. That's not an investigation, that's carpet bombing."

TV series give us the misleading impression that police detectives actually have any idea what they're doing.

'Police confirm they have spent two days searching a house...'

Plod are obsessed with the task of locating cash and jewellery; those personal keepsakes, trophies and event souvenirs which take up so much time in the quest for extra income. Snacking, masturbation and languorous delays on the loo, including those protracted stoppages when plod attempt to find 'there' own butts, are subordinate to this primary function.

Quite! Less 'Morse', more 'Keystone Kops'...
