24 Hours in Police Custody

[Thora]

Filming the sales video in his house with his clock and cute little wooden calendar probably didn't help either.

 

[Callie]

I feel very sorry for him. 10 years. For just handling a bit of crystal. Seems very excessive.

A bit of crystal = ~10kg?!

 

[Calamity1971]

guy got 2 and a half years after being caught with a car full of drugs , sex toys and cash

plus two phone showing intend to supply ...

no comment my arse

You forgot about the gimp teddy bear in the foot well . You'd be shit on the generation game .

 

[mystic pyjamas]

The Generation Game. That’s going back a bit.

Is that tonight's episode? Hope my mum's not watching, she'll get ideas

 

[Ax^]

just the kind of shite the older sister would get mixed up.. she is daft as a brush as well

 

[ddraig]

That was more than 8 kilo

a venture capalist haw offered him a job upon release

[savoloysam]

The guy had so much weed he was throwing it in the bin without realising it ha ha ha

The slow path to legalisation continues.

aye 8kg is now way a million pounds
even if you selling it at 40 quid a gram

I just caught up on this episode. The cops have had a hardon for crystal for years, always expecting it to hit the UK in a big way. They'd be pushing for maximum sentences

Then I saw his Never Surrender tat and wondered why he went so quietly

Let those who don't have 10 key of tina knocking around the kitchen cast the first stone

Some of these are episodes hilarious. The previous one at the sight of the cops being completely in awe of the sight of this newfangled thing called crystal meth, they looked almost starstruck, to the most recent one with the dude who could barely use a computer and was so proud of himself for managing to enter a license plate into a database.

Based on my own experiences with the cops it's pretty accurate. Although the ones in the most recent one were at least kind of sweet. It was like an episode of the Office.

At no point did they go into how those two women came into contact with Junior either.

They always play nice when the cameras are on for national TV. Rarely are they like that IRL.

I managed to get the last two episodes through a VPN
It all seems so fucking amateur. The coppers, the bumbling criminals.

I’m guessing these are the people who make the clean up stats look good for the coppers while the proper lot are pushing shipping containers full of gack through U.K. ports and assassinating competitors

I suspect alot of colusion and "drinks are taken" when some of those bigger consignments get through.

Or how a venture capitalist (whatever one of those is) knew about Jnr. He wouldn’t have seen the programme yet.

Maybe he was into crafts?

Wanted to know this too!

 

[Petcha]

Wanted to know this too!

Haha.. yeh, did seem rather random. A dashing young lad like that working with two doddery, quite simple suburban older ladies. One of the weirder episodes all in all.

Importing weed isn't exactly the crime of the century. I mean to me it's not even a crime but hey ho. I hope there's something spicier next time.

Poor Toby started off well with the first no comment interview.

I did feel for the guy. He seemed lost in a haze of sex parties and wanting to please everyone.

What's your thoughts on this?

I guess context and delivery are needed to see whether this was offensive or not:

He greeted prisoners with "hello bitches" or "hello slags" and did not declare drugs offences, it heard.

Not 24 Hours, but a similar police programme, Manhunt:
What was the confidential police tactics regarding mobile network information? I think it was that they can search based on IMEI, not just mobile number or SIM card.
Can anybody confirm this?
