Thread: Inspector sacked

Inspector Toby Day, 37, accessed the police national computer seeking details of his wife's boyfriend. He was suspended in September and was dismissed for it last week. On Thursday afternoon, at around 4pm, he ran amok with a knife, killing Samantha, 38, and six-year-old Genevieve, and seriously injuring the couple’s 15-year-old daughter and 13-year-old son.

Shows the poor quality of Senior Police in the UK....

No it doesn't, it shows that the higher some people get, the more superior they think they are.
I was told by an Inspector, "We can do what we want."
Then when I got an Inspector to investigate the case and he found that two officers should be reprimanded, all documents of the case was lost and he produced something that was a lie, and the IPCC accepted the lies, so I can now conclude that because some police officers and inspectors deal with criminals they too become criminals themselves and the honest adults and children of the country are treat like criminals by the police who are supposed to be their to protect them, how sad.

The system needs to be changed so that any wrong doing can be put right without any blame, instead it should be acting as irrationally because of what had been said to them, on minor incidents. The reason I say this, then maybe, someone who was in the police may have seen something that did not seem right and come forward before this senior officer had carried out this awful crime.

All to often it is seen as them against us, but who is us, that is the question, because most of us are law abiding citizens who used to believe that the police were there to protect us, then find that some of them are their to protect their friends whether they are in the right or in the wrong, better for all to do the right thing, than hide the truth. That's why I say, put things right, rather than make the whole station wrong, because what you have then is having no confidence in the full station.

How many more have ridiculed the innocent, and never been disciplined.
The sad fact is when you make a complaint, they want you to sign a form so they will carry out their own investigation and take discipline into their own hands, however if you sign the form, then they could just dismiss the fact that faults have been made. If you decide not to sign the form, then they can carry out the investigation and in my case tell you that two officers will be disciplined, then a few months down the line, tell you they have lost all the original documentation and produce a report that bears no resemblance of what they told you. They can also lie in the report, but according to the IPCC all the lies and differences are discrepancies, how would that letter stand up in court in front of a judge? How many discrepancies do you need to decide something is seriously wrong with the system. The problem I found that they put children's lives at risk, but they were not interested and neither was the IPCC, even though the child made a complaint at the police station about threats against him which were not acted upon.
An innocent person who is truthful has nothing to lose, a system that is full of flaws needs to be reformed to bring trust into the equation, trust for the innocent person is most important, not money, not compensation, trust and honesty, I would rather a police officer that made a mistake have the chance to put it right and learn from the mistake, unless ofcourse he was a bad penny, that's totally different, however the system does have many flaws or as the IPCC would say, many bad discrepancies.
