    They won't be doing that again in a hurry, it ended up costing the police and the BBC over £600k.

    the case of Christopher Jefferies comes to mind, with him virtually convicted in the public mind due to the media reporting locals saying he was a bit strange.

    If the arrest turns into charges then we will find out soon enough. At this stage it’s more important it’s done right, so not to jeopardise any future court case.

    My heart goes out to Libby’s parents though, must be a living nightmare.

    As To Any Free Will Volition On Libby's Part , That The Girl Is Alive & Well After 7 Days , The Pressure Surely Of National Exposure Would Prompt Any Body To Reveal Themselves , In Good Conscience , Wouldn't It ?

    And maybe that's how he got away with it.

    sorry but that's ridiculous to say

    he only sued them because he wasn't even charged with anything

    His sister is saying he is innocent because he was helping the girl and put her address in his sat - nav to get her home safely.

    Off topic slightly but what a horrible world we live in . In the last week i have seen 5 posts on a child protection group of people from Hull who have admitted a variety of offences from images on computer to sexually abusing an 8 year old , that's just one week in Hull , How many thousands and thousands of these animals are out there? Scary really , especially now I have a daughter of my own

    I remember clearly as a twenty and + year old, coming out of club and with X £'s left in my pocket thinking kebab or taxi. Scores of girls used to do the same thing and you'd have a joke with them and say 'see you next week'. I'd walk down Spring Bank all the way home. How the world has changed. as DJBA says, not a nice world after dark now..

    Different eras, far bigger pub culture, less taxis, less bouncers, no cctv, no mobiles, more gangs, always menace and violence around bus station and taxi queues, in a lot of ways nightlife was like football ie more violent decades ago.

    Was it true that there was a 'No White people' sign in front of a restaurant down Spring Bank? If true were the owners ever prosecuted?

    All true and yet I used to walk / stagger all the way down Bev Rd from town to NHE and never once had a problem, wouldn't recommend doing that these days.

    ITV News have released this CCTV footage. It has sent a chill down my spine.

    They were my perceptions of the police back in 70s/80s.

    If your perceptions are different, hairy muff, but don't tell me mine are 'wrong'.
