butchers is right

 

[Mr.Bishie]

Q: I want you to answer this frankly...why did u take footage to BBC and not to police?

A: I'm going to be honest, I don't really trust police

Mark Duggan was "definitely" holding a phone in his hand when he was shot by police in Tottenham, north London, an inquest into his death has heard.

A man, identified as Witness B, said he saw this from a flat on the 9th floor of a building near the scene in Ferry Lane in August 2011

not sure I'd be able to tell it was definitely anything from that far away

So, as per your training, you'd shoot him and then get off.

 

[butchersapron]

Here we go, so you say you don''t trust the police yet you accepted payment for your footage - are you on an earner by giving this testimony etc rats.

 

[Mr.Bishie]

Witness A was also in the same flat as witness B - doesn't bode well does it.

 

[butchersapron]

And that's your lot - escape route:

BBC notes of meeting with witness B: "initially thought gun but then read n/papers then thought it was Blackberry."

 

[butchersapron]

Well, they done on a job on witness b - why aren't they focusing on what he filmed rather than what he witnessed. Police story of unsure of what Duggan had now firmed up.

Unless it's a plod tactic to carry firearms in socks in the event of a fuck up. Which is pretty pointless when there's no prints/dna on said weapon.

they're not the sharpest tools in the box though.

 

[Mr.Bishie]

magic gun to be forgotten

Not quite. They're trying to say he threw it. And now asking Q's on the "notes" penned by beeb journo

 

[Pickman's model]

We don't have the death sentence in this country.

yes, we do.

 

[butchersapron]

We now have bbc notes saying that he thought it was a gun and himself saying that he never said that - or, let's be fair, that he did not have any memory of saying that.

 

[butchersapron]

There has been a long running legal battle over this. I mentioned it a few months ago on the other thread, people other than the filmer have been threatened with arrests as well if i remember right

This is the post i was talking about. I think witness A is the other person.

 

[Mr.Bishie]

WB IN INTERVIEW W BBC JOURNALIST-- "it was an execution"

 

[Dogsauce]

Blackberry though? Definitely a wrong 'un.

His film was of the aftermath rather than the actual shooting.

 

[shygirl]

yes, we do.

And the Gibraltar 3, tho' I know that their execution was carried out by the army and not police.

Plus the two bank robbers shot dead in Hampshire a few years ago. Felt like an execution too.

Met one of the Duggan support campaign outside Royal Court a bit earlier, they're hoping for a verdict of unlawful killing.

we got one of those for Tomlinson, so we had someone killed unlawfully and yet nobody held to account for it.

 

[shygirl]

D'you reckon it'll be the same in this case? I haven't followed it that closely.

I really think so, yes. Harwood lost his job over Tomlinson but thats it, I suspect the same will happen with the two shooty officers- would love it to go otherwise but coppers never answer for their murders

 

[Citizen66]

yes, we do.

No Harry Stanley?

 

[Kaka Tim]

When does the inquest reopen? Are the jury still deliberating?

 

[TopCat]

The jury are out until they reach a verdict.

 

[TopCat]

Be a good idea to wear lots of warm clothes tomorrow given the verdicts could come in and the vigil in Tottenham will commence shortly after.

 

[Dogsauce]

...or just find a nice fire to warm yourself up near. There could be a few if it goes the 'wrong' way.
