I don't know if you do it intentionally, but your last words always seem to be a guilt trip for the officer who broke the law.

first bit my brain just mostly associates teaching with kids and any way every ones somes ones kid

second not meant that way he was guilty ( any thing about how police were taking it was not aimed at comments here but at the way some of the press have been having a go at them )
