Going on the run - where/how?
Discussion
On another note, friend of mine went AWOL a few days ago, police had his car reg, traced him for 20 miles before they lost him, despite him driving another 200 miles through god knows how many ANPR cameras. Eventually found safe (not by cameras), thankfully.
Hunted is hugely faked and no better than Car SOS and the like for faking things for "TV".

A bit of trouble in a nightclub goes way out of hand when you throw some acid about....(quite who thinks this way escapes me)
You might have four hours start but the following are out of bounds:
Your bank account
Your car
Your house
Your phone
Your close friends who no doubt will be monitored
Where do you go and how?
Ps - I really hope they catch up with the idiot to which this thread refers
No problem with acid in a nightclub, I was quite partial to Adamski and Marshall Jefferson myself.You might have four hours start but the following are out of bounds:

Just read the article.
The problem with TOWIE is it is seen as a bit cheesy, a bit of a joke, rich kid pretty boys and girls having a laugh etc. However there are some serious characters in the background (The fathers, the fathers 'business associates' etc.) so it makes me laugh how its all glorified.

Very easy to disappear if you want to. Most people fail as they can't ditch their phones or social media accounts or they use their bank cards. If you ditch the phones and Facebook, have cash, change your appearance and head to an area where you're not known it's unlikely Police will find you. The key to it is misdirection, if you're planning on disappearing to Cornwall for a few months, do a load of google searches on Edinburgh, ring some hotels and B&B's there from your mobile and buy a National Express ticket online to Scotland. Then, delete all contacts and information off your phone, place it fully charged into an envelope and post it to a charity shop or similar in Edinburgh.
With the above done, withdraw a load of cash, change your appearance (shave head, glasses, different style clothes to normal) and buy a bus ticket with cash to Cornwall and find a cheap B&B or hotel where you can walk in off the street.
Basically, technology is your enemy. Cameras are everywhere, CCTV, ANPR, Cashpoint cameras, cameras on buses and trains; you can be caught anywhere. Police can do cell site analysis on phones and have full access to all your call records. Facebook and the like happily co-operate with Police in cases of missing persons and concerned friends and family will happily give Police access to photos, videos etc of you on their social media. Police also have access to financial records, and these can be in depth, ie they can see all the items you purchased at Aldi before leaving.
Or, if you're a thick mug who likes throwing acid around a nightclub, skulk off to another verminous piece of st's house and hide like a coward in the hope it will all go away.

From the U.K.
Grab some gold and some cash out the safe would be my first move. Find someone on the south coast with a boat that could get me abroad and grease someone's palm to get me down to Africa. Then find my way to my mates farm and live out my days drinking Vodka and sunning myself.
Oh and find myself a new wife

Definitely get to France asap - then you're in Schengen, which as we all know from other threads is somewhat criminal-friendly.
Schengen's in Luxembourg, but I know what you mean The person (alleged to be) responsible for such a crime needs to spend a long time in prison, having been chemically castrated.

My other plans was to move into the same building as the Hunters and sit in a office one floor above them.

Disappearing as above for a few days is easy, but living long term with no access to bank, phones, e-mail, or any sort of tech that can be tracked wouldn't be easy.

Whats wrong with a pair of house bricks?The person (alleged to be) responsible for such a crime needs to spend a long time in prison, having been chemically castrated.
I'd shack up somewhere for a few days, then to be honest it would be trying to think logically and deciding what's worse between trying to live on the run for the next 50 years or facing up and doing a few years inside.
That's assuming i'm guilty of course. I have no specific knowledge of this case or the possible custodial terms imposed (assuming it's GBH?) but if you try and think clearly, just for a second, a few years inside must be better in the long run. I'm sure a decent barrister will cast some doubt on the circumstances, the CCTV might be a bit st, etc. and there's a chance of it not being as bad as thought.
Not that reality TV stars and there associates are ever capable of thinking logically, but that's my thought process.

There's the flaw in an otherwise good plan: how much cash can you realistically withdraw in one hit without attracting attention? I have got enough savings to disappear for a while if I want to, but have got a (self-imposed) limit of £500/day on my current account for ATM withdrawals, just in case my wallet were ever to go AWOL. Isn't there a limit (£4K-ish) above which any transaction flags up for checking under money laundering regs? Either way, getting your hands on a lot of hard cash without anyone noticing (unless kept in a personal safe/under the proverbial mattress) isn't as easy as it might sound. With the above done, withdraw a load of cash,change your appearance (shave head, glasses, different style clothes to normal) and buy a bus ticket with cash to Cornwall and find a cheap B&B or hotel where you can walk in off the street.

So, with limited funds, it becomes a tad more difficult than it might sound.
