Re: Crime paid.
Dear Mups ...
Congrats! Your link works perfectly. Your techno-skills appear to exceed mine - which is not difficult.
I certainly "
do not want to be rude" either.
But I
do try to be in possession of as much available
evidence as possible before rushing to judgement.
Your link was quite dated in that it reported only the theft and immediate impact.
It did not (could not) take into account all that was revealed later -
which the judge (and jury ?) did hear.
It's just a smidge naughty to suggest that if Bruce or I were on a jury we would strive to "
get obvious criminals off the hook".
Hopefully, we would weigh-up all the actual evidence (not just media reports) and seek a just outcome.
You mention "
those thugs". Its seems that only
one youth was charged.
Presumably, British police and prosecutors doing their jobs.
I do take your point that revealing the fate of the dogs would suggest genuine remorse.
On the other hand (we don't
know), doing so could possibly have put the young bloke at risk from a third party ?
