Not very surprising. Somerset and Avon police nearly killed me by keeping me in custody for supposed breach of the peace for 22hrs despite myself and multiple other people telling them I’d taken a serious overdose. By the time they finally let me go and took me to hospital I was in liver failure with the most horrendous bruising and I was on an IV in hospital for almost 2 weeks. -.-
Wasn’t even charged with anything either.
I can’t stand the police. I’m sure some are great but some are absolute cunts. Abusing there power POS
I got the chance to take part in a randomly selected police corruption report and I said hell no, “ I wasn’t making enemies of the police” as this article proves my point oh why I was right to not take part in it.
They gathered all this information after I complained to my house provider about crack heads who cause a load of drama.
A woman claimed she was wrongfully detained, drugged and sexually assaulted by Manchester police recently, she is also a person of colour. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c0kdg7ekg55o.amp Seems like they have some serious systemic issues.
If you read the article, and have any idea about policing, you’ll see the only thing that was really an issue was being taken to interview naked.
But, you can’t force someone to get dressed. He wasn’t forced to go to the interview naked. The DP not wanting to get dressed isn’t a reason to deny an interview.
Mark refused to answer the care and welfare questions.
If you refuse to answer the care and welfare questions they will take your clothes off you to prevent you making a ligature.
They ask direct questions such as “are you suicidal”
“Do you feel like you want to harm yourself”
Walking him through the corridors naked though is inexcusable, a female officer being used is even worse.
Although in saying that he may well have refused to get dressed to go to interview.
When the report into this stuff is inevitably published and it states that correct procedures were followed however lessons have been learned and some procedures are being updated/reviewed it will not make the same waves in the media.
