Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8
The paedophile hunting group I’m part of has been chasing one particularly nasty individual for coming up to 2 years. I mean yeah they’re shitbags by the very nature of why they’re on our radar but this guy has been extremely clever and evasive. We rarely encounter anyone with this guy’s methods which led us to suspect he was either ex-police or has a a strong working knowledge of how hunting groups work.
Anyway his trail went cold in the autumn but reappeared a few weeks before Christmas and without giving our methods away he made a fatal mistake and inadvertently gave us all the information we needed for a very likely prosecution. He even suggested a meet which of course we attended.
I never get involved with the chat, I tried it once and it turned my stomach so I agreed to never do it it again. Instead my role is to gather enough intel to ensure we have the right person, and I’m also the “muscle” on meets in case the perp (or passers-by) decide to kick off.
Anyway the meet went ahead a few days in to January, the police (as is usually the case) were very impressed with the evidence pack and how we conducted the sting.
Fast forward to today, the police called us to say the CPS had decided to take no further action
We couldn’t believe it, we had all the usual evidence we routinely gather, even the cop who called us was at a loss for words, he was convinced this guy would have his day in court, if not spending time inside.
Doesn’t happen often but when it does it drives me nuts.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8
CPS are notorious for not giving reasons for their decisions. Keeping in mind the information we were given was second-hand it was implied their decision was based on the (perceived) lack of strength of evidence.
Again this was mystifying as we had him on numerous occasions discussing horrendous things he intended to do to our decoy, he sent about 10 to 15 obscene imagines of himself and arranged to meet 6 times, albeit he only followed through with one of them, aggravated by the fact he booked a double room at a Travelodge and when the police searched him they found condoms and lube.
I won’t go in to the other details of what we had on him but all that alone has been enough to send other predators down in the past.

Then a smaller black wheelie bin, and all recycling in one plastic bag because the council spent millions on a sorting machine.
Then a food recycling bin appeared.
Then a blue reusable sack for paper and card, and a red reusable sack for plastic and metal, and a blue bin for glass.
Then purple bags for hygiene waste.
The red and blue sacks were emptied into a lorry with 2 sides to keep the recycled materials separate, but one side always filled before the other, so the vehicle had to make extra trips back to the depot to empty it all, so now they use one lorry for blue and one for red.
So that means that there are up to 6 vehicles visiting each address once a week.
And now there are strong rumours that black bins will only be emptied every 4 weeks!

in my area we put the recycling into the bins supplied, then the bin men chuck most of it down the street
