Police Sharing Images of 3 Murder Victims

This country is going to the dogs and words fail me.

The depraved sickos in the police-force that shared horrific graphic WhatsApp images of the 3 knifed murder victims in Nottingham - one only gets a talking to and one only gets a final warning!!

YANBU - they should be sacked and charged.

YABU - they should remain in the police-force on full pay/pension

Some of the people who were told graphic information about the murders were not police officers but relatives. Just voyeurism.

"She raised concerns after it emerged the son of the force’s boss, Kate Meynell, was among members of the police WhatsApp group in which graphic details were posted about the killings."

I mean seriously lacking compassion and thinking skills sharing this with people not involved in the investigation.

This has made me feel quite sick. That they are still in the force disgusts me.

I can't vote as it is closed but you, of course, ANBU.

I do wonder if the people you voted YABU did so because of the order in which you listed the options in your OP. If I was reading when tired or not paying much attention, I may have clicked the top option due to not paying enough attention.

Dehumanising the victims by police and chi chatting on a WhatsApp. Where's the humanity? Where's the decency? As Emma, Barnaby's mother asks.

Factsareimportantplease · 24/04/2024 08:26

It's being discussed on ITV now.

The mother of Barnaby has written to the police with regard to the vile comments the police officers said.

Does anyone have access to her letter published in The Times, behind its paywall?

Can anyone explain why they believe YABU?

To the 17% who have said the OP is being unreasonable then you are as sickening as the police officers guilty of this vile behaviour.
You click YABU but you haven't got the guts, decency or the brain power to come on here and tell the OP why.
You lot are part of the problem.

What is wrong with these people Angry

Agreed, it takes some sort of sick minded bastard to do what they did.

I’ve lost all respect for the police, they seem to be getting worse and worse, and the hierarchy are a weak spineless joke.

This thread should be 100% YANBU
If anyone thinks you are then shame on them.
Another sickening police scandal.
