Nick Tessla Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Not in the underworld. Someone from a higher source. I believe that Cheshire Police's finest brains have formed the opinion that it is the work of a dental hygenist..... .......... having discovered that they have been involved in other cases of plaque removal 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazj Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 Cleo.... I have to admit to having no religious beliefs However, if ever there was a reason to bring in sharia Law in; I would do it now and use it to chop off the hands of whoever has taken that plaque. I would personally do the chopping and to hell with anaesthetic!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 What I don’t understand is if these CCTV images have been available all along, why did the reports at the time state that nobody knew when the plaque was stolen? The protracted debates about just how this could happen given the amount of cameras in the area and also the uncaring attitude of the public seems to have been a total waste of our time. Last week, I criticised one local individual for withholding evidence from the police and now a week later I think I have some sympathy with him. If the police want the assistance of the public via the media then they shouldn’t treat people this way. If for legal reasons they can’t tell or show us something, then let them say so rather than misleading us like this. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted June 10, 2012 Report Share Posted June 10, 2012 I guess reports may have stated 'at the time' that they didn't know when the plaque had been stolen as presumably they had not looked through the many many hours of cctv footage from the area fully then Bill. If the cameras are on 24/7 then that's one heck of a lot of footage to sit and wade through watching out for 'possibles'. I remember us having cctv up for a weekend here trying to catch the buggers who kept damaging cars. Even on fast forward it took an eternity for us to look through, and pause at, every person passing. OK so CCTV cameras these days can have motion detection so they only record when someone passes but in the case of busy night-time Bridge Street they'd still be on most of the time anyway. No point in criticising the police as they aren't the ones who stole it.... but they ARE the ones who found it so well done them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazj Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 Those three in the photos don't look 57!! Maybe the bloke arrested is the father of one of them!! Either way, it amazes me that the bloke gets bail and why they haven't named him so the whole town can go and kick the proverbial out of him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cleopatra Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 He will be named if and when he comes to trial. Patience is the keyword. Neighbours would have seen the police activity at his house and witnessed his arrest so probably won't be too long before the info travels along the grapevine anyway.

Dizzy Posted June 11, 2012 Report Share Posted June 11, 2012 If what you say is true about the bloke simply finding it Wolfie then he is just as guitly in my opinion as if he HAD taken it himself. Considering the story of the plaques theft was splashed across all local and national papers, radio and TV etc then ..... WHY when he 'found' it didn't he just hand it in as being local he must have know what it was and that it was being looked for....and there was even a £2000 reward. If he was worried about handing it in why didn't he just leave it somewhere where it would be found safely ? Considering the story of the plaques theft was splashed across all local and national papers, radio and TV etc it beggers belief that he simply DID NOTHING... unless of course he knew the person who did it and/or is telling porkies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
