Odd, because usually when one of their own is involved, police efficiency rates miraculously improve exponentially

yeah but protecting ye from psycho gunmen on the run, it's not exactly sheepherding either.

Suddenly realised I've been to Rothbury very recently when I went to Cragside. If he can get there, mingle with the NT visitors, have a nice cream tea, that'll probably calm him down no end.

not blaming the police for anything.. and i guess it is easy to be all 20/20 hindsight and pile on any mistakes but seriously.. i'd imagine posting a set of eyes at the mate's house would be standard practice. no doubt it's a fucking weird feeling to be a policeman up there right now though, knowing you're this guy's explicit target!

Details emerged yesterday of a 49-page letter, dated 4 July, that Moat had written to police.
pretty sure 49 pages is a record for this kind of work, good going Newcastle

I never cheated on her, I wish she hadn't on me. She pulled the trigger by doing so just as much as me.

Guy in our basement flat was a bouncer. At 18. Took steroids. Reinvented as tarmac dude / builder. Now reinvented as web guru. Mother is knight of the realm. Married at 22. 1 kid and another on the way. Incident pre-marriage in which now-wife assualted him in the street, spitting, swearing, speaking in tongues, scratching face etc etc. I called police, she ended up being taken away in ambulance, escaping, street fight, more police, 2am, fun fun fun.

Neighbours in Fenham, Newcastle, where he lived in a large, semi-detached house said they knew him as "bully boy" because of his menacing appearance. One said she once found one of his daughters by a bus stop wearing a nightdress in the pouring winter rain. She was crying and wearing a bib upon which were written the words: "I've been cheeky to my Daddy."
"It was a nasty incident," the neighbour said. "She must have been only three or four and was absolutely frozen."

classic guardian. it's not that easy to get put away y'know! for like five months. people have done worse things to younger kids and not had so much as a caution amirite.
― frap your hands say yeah yeah yeah (history mayne), Tuesday, 6 July 2010 15:45 (thirteen years ago) link
info on the assault is from the daily mail. bleeding heart liberals at the graun probably squeamish about identitifying the kid as the victim of crime but the stobbart family are talking to papers so i assume it's reliable.
In the police letter, a copy of which was sent to the Sun newspaper, Moat made it clear that he blamed the force for his spell in prison for beating his nine-year-old daughter. While he was in Durham Jail, Miss Stobbart announced their relationship was over.
