actually that's correct.

 

Innocent until proven guilty.

 

of course, until a police investigation could be held, the "thief" shouldn't have been paraded around. it is classed as slander.

Falsely imprisoning someone and then whingeing about it to the Daily Mail when you pay the consequences just makes you a class A cunt. I've got no sympathy for either of them and would quite happily shoot both in the back of the head with a luger. But I won't because that's illegal, I'm not an idiot, and we don't live in a consequence free world.

He was forced to wear a sign around his neck saying: 'THIEF. I Stole £845

 

How do you force someone to do that. Surely you can just take it off.

 

Skimmed through the article and it says something about him being forced in a van and beat up a bit or something?

Publishing the picture where you see the thief being humiliated is humiliation in itself. Why wouldn't Daily Mail owe the thief money as well?

Didnt read the article, as it looks like a tabloid piece of shit.

 

But Im fairly sure beating someone up is more illegal than making someone wear a sign.

Speaking after the incident in 2008 Gilbert said he feared he was going to be killed as he was bundled into the back of a van.

He said: 'They laid into me, they beat me, I was begging Simon to let me go to the police, they said they didn't trust me and they had to tie me up.

'They were punching me and threatened me with various tools. They showed me the sign and made me say it out loud three times.

'They stopped at the pub, so they could march me through the streets. I wished the world would swallow me up, I hoped no one would recognise me.

'It was almost a relief when I saw the police station was in sight rather than a remote field.'

He claimed previously that he had suffered marks, bruises, a black eye and rope burns as a result of his ordeal and had suffered abuse and taunts since his photograph had appeared in local and national newspapers.

:shrug:

 

If it's true that's some pretty evil shit and the boss deserves everything that happens to him.

a mate of mine who lives in the rough end of town said some dickhead hoody chav in his neck of the woods stabbed someone and wasn't put behind bars! Not that the courts saw it as attempted murder of any kind but the fact he was fucked on coke meant 'he wasn't in a sane state of mind when he did it' and now walks free to get even more fucked on coke and stab someone else!

 

 

someone gets caught with a handful of pills gets three years

rapists get 4yrs

stealing £40 of copper wire will off a building site will get you six months inside

knowingly stealing £40k+ in benefits will get you three months inside, two months community service and a payback of £5 per month with no interest

Of course the boss has to pay out the 13,000 quid, he's an adult in his 40's and should realise how the criminal justice system works by now. He should be happy to hand over the money with the satisfaction that he got to beat up, sack and publicly humiliate a twerp that had probably been stealing from him for years. And leave it at that.

 

Well almost at that. If he had any media savvy, he would set up a website calling for donations, to help him get by. Then rig the donation meter so that when all those dumb vigilante justicites start paypalling him, he can let it go on for quite some mega ammount of cash. Enough so that he can both retire to the costa del sol and hire some goons to beat up the chap wot done 'im tha wronging in the first place.

 

innit

Read about this earlier. It's not a bad call, you can't march someone through the streets with a sign around their neck, what the fuck was that cunt thinking. He could have CALLED the police like any normal citizen.

If you falsely imprison someone, it's false imprisonment. This seems quite simple to me. If there weren't laws against false imprisonment you could legally kidpnap people. I don't have much sympathy for the thief, but these laws are there to protect all of us, otherwise it'd be legal to kidnap people.....I Of course, the story is very much spun to make you think the employer did NOTHING wrong, when if you read the article carefully, it's quite clear he took the law into his own hands..... red arrow me as much as you like, it won't change the fact that kidnapping is illegal, and should remain that way.
