So the cops raid a house; find loads of class A drugs, question a man all day…. and then let him go (Bail)? Why not keep him locked up so he can’t go selling more drugs or whatever he does?
No wonder we can’t beat drugs, they keep bailing all the suspects can carry on offending!
Now your learning. You need a justice system and a penal system that’s about halfway between Victorian today. Kinda like we had in the 50’s before the politically correct liberals took over your country.
Eric, I couldn’t agree more, but believe me I learned a long time ago that justice in this country is crap and the system favours the criminals!
Is presume that the polcie didn’t name the 19 year old as he was on ‘suspicion’ of drug offences but the report DID say they seized a substantial amount of what is believed to be Class A drugs from the address.
Surely by now they have tested them as it only takes a few seconds to determine what type of drug they are……. and if they are class A’s he should be named so other parents know who to keep their kids/teens away from. I presume he has ‘friends’ !?!?
The trouble is though; in this mixed up, screwed up country we live in, he has human rights too!
I agree, if found guilty, the scum should be named and shamed from every lampost in the town
