@CHROMIUMHEROmusic I’ve done his job and worked with plenty like him He had already made up his mind she was on drugs and wasn’t to be believed, if she hadn’t have had pictures there no found in my mind that’s what he would have continued to believe. His whole attitude and demeanour changed when he saw those pictures. Most officers make up their minds very quickly about a situation, it’s in our training - self preservation is key, and that rapid conclusion finding feeds through to all other areas for better or worse. You can believe what you like, I know what I saw, I’ve seen it thousands of times before. The amount of stuff police officers get wrong is huge. We don’t have access to all the information and don’t have the time to gather and process it, we work with what we’ve got in the limited time available to us, and unfortunately in many cases it’s nowhere near enough. Plenty of cops don’t even care about finding out the truth, they just want to close their cases and hit the stats
