24 Hours in Police Custody

[Ginger1982]

Anyone watching the new series?

I haven’t gotten to the actually interview yet but I can guess what’s gonna happen.

I’m a cid officer and we interview other officers suspects frequently and you have to pick up the case quickly and think on your feet during interview. Hopefully they will have done an interview plan which I can follow which gives a starter for ten.

But an interview in this scale with no time to get a good handle on it? It’s always going to go badly.

Now to watch the interview......

It’s not bad actually. He’s nervous but absolutely so would I if I was interviewing someone knowing it would be broadcast on national tv without having intimate knowledge of a case. He gains in confidence during the interview. Interviewing isn’t easy and not something you can just wing.

As for the mute comment from a previous poster..... only speaking for our training but we have a lead interviewer and a 2nd interviewer. The 2nd’s job is to basically monitor the interview, catch anything the lead may have overlooked and be there in support. We wouldn’t have both interviewers routinely asking the questions.

Thanks for the info. I’ve seen (in tv not in person!) there is a quieter one bit but thought they would contribute a bit.
I’m surprised they got a result on him at all. Thank God for DNA.
It must be a seriously stressful job without the pressure of cameras, point taken.

ice Remember we were only watching a few minutes of what would have been a long interview. She probably did ask questions.

Sometimes I don’t ask a single question in an interview if the lead has covered everything, no point asking something just for the sake of it.

I actually thought the guy was going to work. He really made the police work and I think was lucky to get off with what he pleaded guilty to. But I think it’s a sad indictment of society that once you have gone down that path - it’s not always to get out of. Found the snippets from his brother very interesting

Sorry “walk” not “work”!

That dealer got such a low sentence. And all that crap about him travelling the world looking for roofing jobs - who did he think would believe that?

Anyone watching the posh bloke and the insurance?

We are!

I feel a bit hmmmm about it

Who is Dave???

He's fucking barking

I love it

Can I have a coffee?
And go home?

Coming across like a pretentious prat!

Noeuf Dave is the copper in charge.

This guy is a twat!

I'm not the guilty party here

What an arrogant arse this bloke is.

Bloody misogynistic d*ck

"Girls"

Who is misogynistic? I missed that.

Thanks Ginger that is so funny

Has his solicitor ditched him?

I think they said no one from the solicitors was available?

Isn’t that fortunate he had two of the things that were stolen?!

Watching open-mouthed here....

What a coincidence!! If he was my client I would be cringing!!
