Police Wrap – 31 March
I am really glad the girl got away.

Gee, I wouldn’t like to be your daughter, I hope if your kids (if you have them) came to you for help, you would listen and act instead of ignoring it and maybe something bad happening to them.
Tooks said :
I agree, Think of how you would feel if someone actually got taken and you didn’t say anything?
Hugh Lews said :
You actually should call them to share that info.
I dont want to get drawn into this but there is a guy who looks a LOT like that who is always out walking around Conder/ Gordon.
I have laughed to myself before cause he looks like the dad one of those latino gangsters from some old boys n the hood movie.
If this gets twisted into someone telling me to call crimestoppers, I deny the whole thing…..
Colour me jaded or cynical, but that photofit looks like such an archetypal villian I would be interested in seeing if the girl had some overdue homework that she was going to be penalised for, or some bullying issues at school.
Why put obfuscation on one instance of chylde pr0n, but leave it there (twice) in the quoted police media?
Isn’t he the bad guy from ‘Ghost’?
I’m sure there’s someone out there ready to claim he’s a top bloke, none kinder – especially to 13 year old girlies.
‘m sure his mother loves him…
Boss de plane!
Ugly..
“You ungly son-of-a-b***c..”
Obviously its Tattoo from Fantasy Island, life must have gotten really tough when the show was cancelled and he had to make his way in the real world. He faked his death and now makes a living in the white slave trade. Ricardo Montalban would turn in his grave.
