The fact its made the headlines shows that even if, and its a big if, the allegations are true how unusual it is.

Fair enough if you ask me. Don’t do the crime if you cannot take the punishment that may come with it. Lucky they did not do it in an Arab country.

Think if they were doing this regularly the crime clear up rate would be a lot better.

It's not the job of the police to punish.

The problem is that the CPS and the Judges don't seem to see it as their job either.

Not but it’s the police job to prevent. Presides when do criminals get punished nowadays anyway? :confused:

Does your photo mean you're a pipe bender by trade?

Maybe they were just watching a bit too much TV?

I'm sure he was doing some early 80's waterboarding a few episodes back.

Only if your photo means you're a regular in police lineups.
