I almost agree. Too many people get too little support from the law. I witnessed a crime and reported it, spending hours at a police station giving my statement, doing descriptions of the perpetrators, to be told that it would be my word against theirs. Was I willing to stand up in court?
Yes I damn well was.
And the Crown Prosecution Service decided that a law abiding citizen of good standing had no credibility compared to two characters with pre-existing criminal records.
That was Britain 1995.
