Yes they probably would be. But it makes you wonder about those in the lower ranks who were criticising the commanding officer yesterday for aborting the pursuit then some of their own letting him escape. I believe it was a good result that the public wasn't injured by that fruitcake and if the decision to abort led to that then it was the right call. The public's safety is number one and it would have been a tough call. If he had of been killed in the pursuit then there would have been outrage that it should have been aborted.phreak wrote:the two probies who accidently let him escape must be feeling rather sheepish today.

Probably, but it seems the paper media tend to run by a very different set of rulesLighteningCrashes wrote:Isn't it illegal to publish photos of or identify SAS soldiers?

Re: Pursuits and other events
More likely to be other support staff from the barracks. The boys wouldn't have let them take photo's of them and if the photo's were published there would be serious issues.

good question, I think junior or senior they'd be a bit embarrased and unlikely to make the same mistake again!written_ficton wrote:where the hell did they say the probies were looking after him?

Re: Pursuits and other events
CH7 News reported and showed 'footage' of the two officers who were in charge of the prisoner at the time. The footage depicted two constables talking to forensic officers. Then showed footage of GSXXX being looked over by forensics. CH7 then reported that two junior officers were in charge of the prisoner at the time of the escape. Whether they were probationary officers or not was not mentioned. I used 'probies' as an endearment to the younger officers.

Ex information from a Police Officer near by a bus stop I was waiting at, it appears to have been a suicide.

w_f... 1, a person can commit suicide by stabbing themselves and 2, an item would be bagged in evidence prior to being removed from the scene.written_ficton wrote:G, it was a stabbing...

Re: Pursuits and other events
The media outlook that was to use my pictures of the incident earlier today has informed me that it was a suicide. I originally was told otherwise - sad news though.
