24 Hours in Police Custody: Ch4
Discussion
I've yet to catch any of the current series.
My other half works in Child Protection - she is in court at the moment for a big case. Just dealing with this one job has noticeably drained her - more so because of the ineptitude of various people within the justice system, rather than the case itself.
In answer to the question about them working 20 hours etc - yes, they do, regularly. Then they go back in after minimal sleep to do it all over again. One of the main reasons for this is that come 3pm on a Friday, social services and schools call in to tell the CPU about a 'really urgent safeguarding issue' that they've known about all week - it is then down to the Police to follow it up - unlike the schools or social services, the Police can't leave it over the weekend..... We don't make plans for weekday evenings any more.....
