Early yesterday morning I saw several plain clothes officers (identifiable by their stab vests) creep up quietly to a neighbours house, they had a big duffel bag, they were let inside and the bag left outside, eventually the bag was brought in and the officers eventually came outside and were bagging things up into evidence bags (it looked like laptops/computer equipment etc etc)
It’s a street full of families with children etc mostly except this house. 2 men, one who permanently resides and one who is a lodger, I’m friendly with them both, no issues.
I’m sure you can imagine, rightly or wrongly, that the street is rife with speculation and gossip and the main cause of concern has been caused by the removal of the equipment and the conclusion that “obviously one of them is a paedophile”
I am so acutely aware of the devastation that rumours such as these can caused even if proved to be unfounded and I am personally reserving judgement on the situation
I don’t know if there is anything that I could/should be doing though? The thought of what potentially could be has obviously crossed my mind, what would you do? Ignore it as though it never happened? I just don’t know!
