And people still wonder why so many of us no longer respect the police.
The first one shows why CCTV cameras are not necessarily a step back for human rights. However i would prefer a separate body from the police to be involved in collecting evidence from them. Rather to many video tapes have gone missing, as in the Menedez case.
The way the papers use the word "grooming" at the police's behest shows how very far fromm supporters of human rights the media is. Or perhaps we are going to see them say that Crimewatch is grooming informers.
