Nope, it's that he was a copper.

Imagine if the footage showed anyone else doing that, and the victim didn't testify.

Imagine if the roles were reversed and a member of the public twatted a copper like that, but the copper didn't testify.




Another day in the life of Merrick and his World of Conspiracy Theories.

Yawn.

Of course, the fact that she refused to testify would be a major reason for this verdict, particularly as witnesses said they felt the coverage gave "an unfair and inaccurate portrayal", and one described Ms Fisher as behaving like a "lunatic".

Funny that she was prepared to appear on Sky News, but not in court.

To suggest that coppers never get convicted of offences is ridiculous. One can only assume your reading of the newspapers is somewhat selective. Of course, you're very good at making your opinion look like hard cold facts aren't you?

As for..."Imagine if the roles were reversed and a member of the public twatted a copper like that, but the copper didn't testify"...well that's a ridiculous statement. Giving evidence in court is part of their job!
