Really!!!

Following a recent criminal case Det. Supt. Neil Hunter of the Lancashire Constabulary said:

While we are disappointed with today's decision, we accept the decision of the court.

The decision was that of a jury. How can the police not accept the decision of a court? Perhaps Det. Supt. Hunter wishes the police were prosecutor, judge and jury?

I think this prat should be hauled before the judge to explain himself and the Home Office should initiate an inquiry into this blatant undermining of the judicial process. Better still sack him with no pension.

The sooner we get elected police commissioners to look into such outrageous comments the better.
