Yep Marine A banged up due to some Officer Dibble wkstain sticking his nose in where it didn't belong. Of course I'm sure it's the case that no plod has ever bent or broken the rules.

Just another symptom of all that's wrong in this country.
He was banged up for murdering somebody.

He risked his life so the IPCC home and dry in the UK could play procedures to cover up bent Coppers.

I've followed your lead, but have compared opinions on this killing and that of Mark Duggan.

I donated to the Daily Mail campaign for this appeal.

We should want the police to investigate what they find. Whether or not you agree with the outcome or the sentence, they're just there to make sure a fair and impartial investigation is carried out. Otherwise, you just end up down a blind alley of selective investigation, which isn't ideal in cases that may or may not be murder.

Folk not knowing how the justice system works, just another symptom of all that's wrong in this country nuts

Rubbish. There's hundreds of hours of footage they can use, what difference would that really make.
Really? There's a few incidents from Iraq (mainly American but a few British), but can't think of many other such incidents in Afghanistan.

Plenty of evidence from Malaya and Vietnam that abuses by occupying forces caused bigger problems.

Yes, of course, investigating a murder is definitely what is wrong with this country.

A fair and impartial investiagtion can be avoided by the police and their regulator playing the rule book to ensure obvious conflicts of interest and impartiality bypasses are not investigated. That's 'justice' in this Country.

Royal Marine Blackman and his colleagues risked their lives defending such a justice system, that is probably a 'British Value'.

I haven't read much, but the guy was fired upon and he killed one of the insurgents at close range.

You put anyone in a kill or be killed situation, don't be surprised if they don't always act rationally.

I hope ISIS are court martialing their guys.
ISIS are a terrorist organization, this chap was in the British Army.
FFS! He's a MARINE! Marines are in the NAVY!


Jesus wept. What a bunch of Manginas the men of this country are when they don't even know basic st like that.
I think the Marines are sort of their own branch. They certainly operate closer to the Army than anything else. It's irrelevant anyway, the point is that someone serving in the British armed forces should know better. I'm not sure why he did it, but I doubt mercy was on his mind. Likely trying to copy something he saw in the movies.
They are part of the Naval Service which includes the RN, and RM (plus a few others). Not stricly speaking part of the RN, but definately not Army.

Its a bit like the Fleet Air Arm (as was) which did a similar role to the RAF, but was part of the Navy.

He murdered someone. Your picking and choosing which court outcomes you accept speaks volumes about your bias and agenda.

The officer was investigating a crime. I'm fairly sure "sticking your nose into peoples things" while investigating them for a crime is fairly normal practice.

Quite. A fairly obvious thing for most people to grasp. I expect it's beyond him.

Was PC Anthony Gillard formerly of Avon & Somerset police targeting Mr H, the husband of Mrs H that PC Anthony Gillard was in a relationship with, putting an ANPR trace on Mr H's car sticking his nose in where he shouldn't have?

Yeah, we're not policed by the Stasi or the Gestappo.

Nice anti-police wibble on a thread about a convicted murdering ex-Marine.

PC Gillard committed gross misconduct. PC Gillard was sacked it.

That wouldn't happen in the Stasi / Gestappo, would it?

It's amusing to see that you are too limited to realise how you managed to wholly undermine your entire point with the example you were purporting to support it.

I'm ex-forces and have been paying a lot of interest to this case.

Firstly, unless you've been in combat it's virtually impossible to understand the pressures involved on the individual, both during and after the event. This is at the source of the military upset over the legal armchair quarterbacking that's been going on.

As it stands the case has been referred back to the courts, as I understand this is in itself fairly unusual. Of many that ask very, very few get to this stage. Largely, again from my reading, this is due to several factors not having been put before the court at the original trial. This includes the potential that Sgt Blackman was suffering some form of PTSD at the time of the incident due to the preceding few days action.

My feeling is that once all the pertinent facts have been examined the courts should come to a conclusion about a reasonable degree of guilt, or not. If it is still deemed to be murder? Throw away the key, he will have let us all down, but there is clearly enough grounds to re-examine things and we shouldn't be judging him as guilty until these have been looked at.

A Judge has said the requirements to be done in a Court of Law for Misconduct in Public Office are very high.

So despite the statement given by Avon & Somerset police Gillard's Misconduct wasn't severe enough for him to be tried by his peers. He was tried by his employer whose IT resources Gillard misappropriated to stalk Mr H.

What a Judge once said has more credence than Anthony Gillards abuse of position, breach of trust and his Mens Rea and the statement of Avon & Somerset police.

There's a new version of the Stalking law today isn't there that covers victims being stalked by people that they weren't previously in a relationship with. I don't know if that law would cover the targeting of Mr H by PC Anthony Gillard and his little ANPR homer project.

A Copper using ANPR to track the Husband of a woman he's involved with. Yeah, a 'British Value' well worth dodging IEDs for that is.

If some incoherent ranting about a police officer being sacked allows you to somehow support a murdering marine, then crack on. It's not really surprising to see you operate in such a way.

There's a dedicated recent topic about it. How about putting it there rather than derailing threads in your usual self-indulgent way?

That's not 'the police' though, those are the actions of one lone rogue, abusing a police system. He was caught and knacked by 'the police'. You can't tar all with one brush to suit your own bias. If one soldier steals rations and abuses children in the Afghan outback, it doesn't make for an army of thieving child abusers, does it?

Regardless of the rights and wrongs- they were stupid to have filmed the incident - then even more stupid to have stored it on a home computer then give Police a reason to trawl the computer

It'll be interesting to see what the outcome of the appeal is; I imagine the possibility of a reduced sentence but I can't see him being acquitted- especially given his own admission, on camera, immediately following the act.

That said, stranger things have happened.

Yes - but the dibbles weren't investigating Blackman at the time. They were investigating an entirely different matter concerning another Marine when they came across the footage on the laptop. Why didn't they just let it lie instead of then investigating a whole other matter about which most of them probably no nothing about.

The same types of dibble who upon retirement go to work for for organisations like Red Snapper investigating spurious claims against servicemen in Iraq etc. All the while profiting from this countries Legal Aid budget whilst simultaneously undermining the country. You couldn't make it up.
