Coppers in the UK

What a bunch of crap! I would do like you are doing....I would go after the coppers and get their act straightened out! Man I know how upset you must be...had that happen once to my son too! The other guys' parents had more money then me......so my son was the one that got the blame! Hope the kids are okay today! Take care sweetie!

What is wrong with them coppers? I saw red when I read this.
I am appalled at this Gabs!
Why don't they make use of themselves and get all the criminals and hooligans that have come to England since I was a teen.
I remember you could walk the streets in London shopping to your heart's content..no more.
Ah, they ruined the country Gabs and why don't they go after them..big tough cops huh? Sounds like they are trying to copy these guys here with their brutality.
My heart goes out to your children Gabs.
I am fuming..this is terrible for you too.
Will follow this now and yes, I know you will do something about this.
I am disgusted to say the least.

The person who started the fight is probably either a known trouble maker, in which case the police can't be bothered, or a friend of a policeman, in which case they will turn a blind eye. This is happening too often nowadays and it seems the police only deal with the innocent people and forget to catch thieves and louts.
Get the CCTV footage as soon as you can and write to the Chief Constable with your complaint, making sure you keep copies of EVERYTHING for your own records.
I'm afraid there is nothing anyone could do as regards putting your son and daughter together as it is policy to keep male and female seperated.
Follow this complaint all the way and make sure your son, daughter and anyone else injured by the police, take photographs of the bruising.
Take care, gabs. I hope this works out well for your children.

Hi Gabs,


That is really disgusting, I think they should have had this guy in the cell a well, I really hate it when the police always gets the wrong people and grill them when the culprit just walk away, this is the reason why this country is like it is, yes get the CCTV and sue them, I hope is all on the camera, good luck. Love and hugs.

Kind of tough on what to say on this one, being that the situation took place in an entirely different place from where I am - with its own laws & such.

In the United States, you can sue the police precient, & even the city that pays their salaries, in this case Doncaster. In this case, they would probably have to sue for:
* police brutality (get pictures of those bruises as soon as you can for evidence)
* false arrest

sorry but what's a SIL?

OMG Gabs! That is unbelievable! It sounds like what happens
right here in NY! I swear that is the same stuff that happens
all over New York State! Not just New York City, but even
in Westchester County where I live! There are so many corrupt
police officers doing the same things right here too! And they
get away with it! They are so abusive! There have been cases
that were even caught on video and the police officers got
away with abuse! I am so sorry to hear about what happened
to your children! I know that there is no way that they deserved
what happened to them and I hope that there is some way that
these officers will pay, but honestly Gabs, be careful because
most of the police are corrupt apparently all over the WORLD
and they stick together so don't get yourself all upset because
chances are they will LIE about everything anyway and you don't
need to get sick over this! I am telling you that this is the
way it is here in the United States too and it is really disgusting!
No one seems to be able to win against them!

That was a sad ending to what should've been a happy reunion. Anyway, first thing, you should all calm down... put in writing (or typed) the events that occurred, line by line and include times if possible. Contact your nearest CAB (Citizen's Advice Bureau) and arrange to meet for legal advice regarding making a complaint against the Police. Their legal advisers will be able to best assist you with this matter. This link should be a good starting point: http://www.adviceguide.or... the female teacher gave her account as a witness, as a teacher she's a professional whose statement took precedence at the time. Although Mike acted with chivalry but taking the fight outside, a fight is still a fight in the law's eyes. Just remember to stay calm and not raise voices.

this is my preciation of your writing so long that i could not read quickly at once, i spent about the ten minutes to read your post, i do admire your patient to write so long post to describle your mood and your experience to things,this is a lot of the blackground of the your countrys' local languages, i could not understand thorough completely your meanings,you just know about the fame meaning about the happened things that you had experience,the police as we known well, the people get the good impression of dealing with the trouble thing that had happened in the society, but as you known that not all of the policeman can solve and deal with the troubles between the poeple.it is depending on the dividual policeman, the other reason is the thing that is very complicated for the happening, the degree of difficulty to solve this problem is very high for them to discrimme the correct or wrong, perhapps the thing is not wrong or right, the left thing is to tolerate such this thing each other between of the conflicting people, you known, as being the harmonely society, the every in this communities is very important to maintain this good atmospheres in here.
