24hrs in police custody

[ilovechristmas1]

looks like a new series

omg that womens face

a sleeping child upstairs!

i know,it looked like somebody had been murdered all that blood everywhere

well attempted murder

God poor kid. Thankfully he/she appears to have slept through it and not witnessed the violence.

Wasn't it an affair as well ? he said or one of the most of them was having one

yes the ex said they were involved again

just shows how peoples whole life's can change in a moment

11.5 years... I love this series, find it fascinating.

I'm actually really shocked at that sentence!

tbf 11 years is more than a lot of murders get ...bare in mind baby p's mum only got 3/4 years

I liked the officer,

That officer reminded me of DH so much (does the same job). Same manner, same wife at home warning him about being cynical.

It's really gratifying to see an officer managing to get CPS to go for the correct charging decision. My phone rang at the end though. Did it drop down to wounding with intent? 11.5yrs is a pretty hefty sentence. The crime scene was terrifying.

fascinating and a scary case study of how dangerous it can be for women to try to leave abusive partners.

and without being unfair....The dangers of internet dating/irresponsible parenting crossing over, the idea of a man you've known since august living in your house with your child is just incredible ...shame she had to learn the hard way

Absolutely brilliant programme, really is a diamond of the TV listings at the moment.

Just watched this, I recorded it yesterday. A fascinating series and I'm glad to see it back on TV.

All the police officers are so kind and respectful, and calm and caring even though those in custody have probably done some terrible things.

yes to the police officers being very calm and nice to people although the 'no comment' bit would drive me bonkers

I watched this last night - such a good programme, so well made. That Polish translator - she looked very distressed at times. I really felt for her.

She did, didn't she Hassled?

The translators must see and hear some shocking stuff

yeah the translator winced a few times, I didn't know what to make of the offender ..capable of such violence but did show some remorse...excellent programme.

bump for this week

Why are they letting that guy smoke, but not the girl?!
