Suffolk murders cost £5,000,000
Discussion
that doesn't suprise me in the slightest.
you don't expect all those extra coppers from other forces to come for free...then they all have to stay somwhere, at suffolk plods cost.....then you add the exta hours all the coppers were doing in overtime....then add on all the civilian staff shipped in....then the forensics bill...etc. etc.
it all adds up.

) cost about £10 million. 
I know a policeman who refers to his house extension as the Scargill Extension as it was paid for by all the overtime he got.
I expect these *murders will cost us taxpayers a lot more yet. There is the trial and the associated lawyer feeding frenzy. Then the appeal and possible compensation for the miscarriage of justice. The public enquiry and finally compensation for the stress and 'trauma' suffered by the police officers doing their jobs.
Bring back the dark ages! A quick breaking on the wheel and everybody was happy.
*Oops, nearly forgot to use the word prostitute.

And then they'll put the culprit in prison for 20+ years which probably costs the taxpayer another £30K a year... another £600K, index linked...
Shame a shotgun cartridge only cost 50p and it would cost at max £1000 to get rid of the body why should we keep killers alive they dont deserve it.
Am i the only one that thinks this way?

The big fear was that the wrong person may have hanged, but with DNA evidence now so strong this argument may be null and void.

Hi, Crankedup - hope you're well. I agree in part with your statement, but in many states in the USA DNA tests are conducted by private companies. In one State it was discovered rogue staff regularly caused specimens to be adulterated and spoiled yet still drew conclusions, made their report to law officers, and named names ... in order to protect the reputation of their company and keep the fees rolling in.
A recent documentary programme I watched debunked fingerprint evidence and there are recent examples of cases being thrown out in spite of ‘cast iron’ prints. It is no longer enough to rely on that evidence alone.
I wonder how long it will take for DNA to be found to have the same types of flaws… (human error)
I forgot to say... anyone who thinks people should be hanged should watched a inspired film called In the name of the father. Simply brilliant.
