Sarah Everard: full-life term for her killer. on 13:33 - Sep 30 by SitfcB
Bring back the death penalty. Life for a life.
Hope he suffers, c**t.
in his case, I'm pleased he's not going to the gallows for the simple reason that:
1) coppers inside do not tend to be popular, for some reason
2) Sex offenders inside tend not to be popular.
He's going to spend the rest of his life living with the expectation that round the next corner, the next cellmate, the next meal, the next association time there's going to be someone waiting to do him a serious mischief.
I'll take that any day over an 'easy out'.
Generally though, I'm opposed to the death penalty because it's utter barbarism that achieves nothing other than slakes bloodlust for some people.

I'm one of the people who was blamed for getting Paul Cook sacked. PM for the full post.
Don’t ever talk to the police ever unless you absolutely have to. Don’t accept being “arrested” when there is just one of them. Film all your interactions with them where you can. Ask them for their collar and police station if they are persistent. We must all learn to protect ourselves from this corrupt paramilitary organisation. May this latest victim rest in peace.
In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!

All fair points. Plus we're not the Taliban, taking a life is abhorrent and isn't any less so because it's state sponsored.

I do agree.... but the only downside is we all have to financially contribute in keeping these despicable pieces of sh it in existence.

Just been listening to Harriet Harman on R4 calling for Cressida Dick's resignation.

Sorry - but that is a load of bollox!
No.

Commissioner Dick should resign for the reasons Harman states, but even more so because he wasn't just a serving Police Officer (which would be terrible enough) but a serving Firearms Officer, which means he should have been subject to even more stringent psychological evaluation.
The fact that he passed these checks means that they are not fit for purpose. As Head of the Met, the buck stops with the Commissioner.
Her record with firearms police and illegal killings should cause us all to shudder.

I couldn't disagree more (over the death penalty).
I'll let Ian Hislop detail why:
In this case he pleaded guilty, and there was 100% no doubt. But I agree with the point made below - he will live in constant fear whilst in prison, and there is a fair chance that he won't die naturally anyway. He deserves everything he gets.

Wow, someone's had a negative experience of the police.
Whilst there are some valid points here - collar number and station being reasonable requests and I don't see any harm in recording interaction, nor in not speaking to them unless you have to.
However you've advocated resisting arrest, something which could go very wrong and may inflame a situation from nothing to something.
Without them what happens? Back to feudal chieftons and their enforcers?
There are undoubtedly corrupt officers, but not all of them and there is a certain level of oversight.

Because no-one wants to be on the beat with no back up when the sh1t hits the fan there is a culture of inaction which means warning signs are ignored.
Does the firearms psych evaluation cover using a warrant card to rape and murder someone at random?

Being arrested isn’t “nothing”. It seems to me that Couzens “arrested” the poor lady in question. That is speculation on my part. I would add to my advice; ring someone you know immediately if you are spoken to by a police constable. Don’t wait do it immediately.

I've not read into this at all - what were the 'warning signs' with Couzens?
Oh, you know, just allegations of sex offences swept under the carpet by a Metropolitan Police Force led by Commissioner Dick that is in no way institutionally corrupt:

Strongly doubt he would have plead guilty if he faced the death penalty.

He did falsely arrest her. Devastatingly, this was witnessed but the couple assumed he was a pain clothed officer and she had committed a crime.
