This Is No Great 'Mystery' At All....


...there are probably pygmies in the Congo who could take a good guess at who's doing this. Why do we always pretend it's some sort of puzzle?

Mike Jelen, a conservation manager who works on estates in the area, said: ‘This is now happening twice a week.
'It’s total anarchy and the police are doing little about it. By dumping the bodies like this, the poachers are sticking two fingers up to farmers and rural communities.

Just like the police are. 

Yet More Farcical Reporting...

I beg your pardon?

 They always display such very unladylike behaviour, don't they?

The defendant, 51, of Walkergate, Newcastle, was arrested and assaulted a police officer at the police station but was then released on bail with conditions not to contact the victims.

Difficult, when he's moved into the downstair apartment. 

The defendant, who failed to attend court for the sentencing hearing, pleaded guilty to harassment putting a person in fear of violence and assaulting an emergency worker and was jailed for 41 weeks and given a restraining order not to contact the victims. Shada Mellor, defending, said the defendant has served the equivalent of a 14 month prison sentence on remand and was previously detained under the Mental Health Act. The court heard defendant has autism and bipolar.

And those are correctly treated as mental illnesses, and not pandered to by society, and the media who as Longrider points out, are only too happy to lie to their readers..

If Mental Hospitals Were Zoos, They'd Be Shut Down...

I often save images to use later, and, coming across these while cleaning out my photo images, I wondered what had become of the case, as the conclusion must have sneaked under my radar:


And a quick Google later:


A crazed woman stabbed to death a stranger walking his dog in a park after repeatedly 'escaping' from mental health units, it can be revealed. Artist Emma Borowy, 32, was said to be a schizophrenic obsessed with witchcraft. She had previously been arrested for slaughtering two pet goats in a form of 'sacrifice' and allegedly threatened to 'stab someone in the heart' just three weeks before killing Roger Leadbeater, 74.
The case will now never go to trial as she died a week ago in a 'suspected suicide' in New Hall Prison in Wakefield, West Yorkshire.

So no justice for the family of her victim, not that there's likely to have been any if it had gone to trial.  

Passing the case on to the coroner, Judge Richardson said: 'This case, taken as a whole, in almost every dimension is sad beyond compare.'
Details of Borowy's troubling previous behaviour and the fact she was regarded as a 'danger' can now be revealed for the first time as legal restrictions are lifted. Her father Karl, 64, said Borowy, who had a young son, had been admitted to mental health units in Warrington, Salford and Bolton, but had frequently walked out.
He said: 'It seems she can escape any time she wants. That's what she told my wife. I do think these units should be more secure. She must have escaped a dozen times in the past two years.'

Imagine a zoo where lions, tigers and bears regularly escaped and mauled people to death. It would be unthinkable, wouldn't it? They'd never get a licence to operate. How, then, can mental health facilities get away with it?

Borowy was also said to be responsible for the 'ritual' slaughter of two goats in October last year. The animals belonged to a local family. They were stolen and found later with 'broken bones and cut throats.'
Owner Emma McLeod, 39, said Borowy was arrested but never prosecuted. She said: 'We said at the time that if she can kill animals then she can kill a human. She terrorised another farm before us, she used to sit in the trees and pretend she was a bird. But she was never charged over the goats. They just blamed her mental health.'

That gets them off the hook all the time

Typical 'Grauniad'...


...they've spelled 'defeat' wrong.

I Hope c2c Staff Are More Knowledgable About Trains...


...because they suck at ornithology! Pigeons don't flee 'the scent of a hawk', they don't have a sense of smell (were you thinking of vultures, spokesman?). 

It's the sight and sound og the hawk that scares them away.

Should Have Stuck With 'Driver'...


...it's easier to spell.

Sunday Funnies...

You're guaranteed to listen more closely now, Reader...

Oh, To Be A Fly On The Wall!

Do you suppose the subject of poor parenting included pretending your son is your daughter?

Did they come to any earth-shattering conclusions?

“It was a positive and respectful meeting, which allowed us to initially get to know each other. Although I don’t want to go into any detail, we discussed family and the challenges of parenting.”

Yes, it's hard to be a parent these days; the choice between raising a confused child who doesn't know what sex it is, or one who's obsessed with serial killers. Tough call.  

It's The DEI Version Of Max Coopey!

A drug-driver jailed for 16 years for killing a pregnant woman and her elderly father will not spend a single extra day behind bars for trying to cover up his crime. Nitesh Bissendary mounted a pavement in Leopold Street, Ramsgate, in his Alfa Romeo and fatally struck Noga Sella, 37, and 81-year-old Yoram Hirshfield in August 2022.

I remember this when it first hit the news, and thought it had gone rather quiet.

The 31-year-old, who had been out dealing cocaine in the two hours prior to the crash, fled the scene, leaving his dying victims and a seriously injured child who was among the family-of-five mown down. But instead of alerting emergency services, Bissendary chose to phone his parents, former Metropolitan police officer Barjunsing Bissendary, 59, and Sadhana Bissendary, 56, to help him remove evidence linking him to the death smash.

Well, well, well... 

Canterbury Crown Court heard that between them they removed items from the car, including drugs, as well as further drugs and paraphernalia from his bedroom at the family home in Highlands Glade, Manston. They also concealed Bissendary's mobile phone from police and removed its SIM card.
His stash of cocaine was actually retrieved from the wreckage while emergency workers were still tending to the injured and as Mrs Sella lay underneath the vehicle.
And what did they get? Well, Reader, merely a 12-month jail term suspended for 18 months.
At the parents' sentencing hearing Judge Simon James said they had acted out of "misguided loyalty", having been confronted with a "conflicting dilemma" of doing the right thing or protecting their son.

I can see why a Met Police employee would have a hard time understanding what 'the right thing' was in any situation, Judge...

Get Ready To Be Charged For Your Bank Account...

And this is the man to thank:

Surely, the regulator should understand that free banking for those who keep their accounts in good order is woven into this country's financial fabric – like good old fish and chips or bangers and mash.

I'm unsure why, looking at him. you'd expect him to know that or care about it. Like our PM he's yet another example of how 'diversity' isn't the panacea the progressives claim it to be.

It's a reward for thrift and should not be abandoned. Most people, especially the elderly, will simply not entertain the idea. A financial uprising? Don't rule it out. For example, we had one 25 years ago when some of the big banks wanted to charge non-customers for using their cash machines. Consumers won that battle, and I am sure they would put up an almighty fight over the loss of free-in-credit banking.

Why should consumers have to gear up again because once more the Financial Conduct Authority has proven to be a watchdog with no teeth? And for those saying 'Well, just change your bank' it's not that easy. 

Next Wednesday, the Treasury committee will grill the bosses of Barclays, Lloyds, NatWest and Santander over whether they are giving customers a fair deal – against the backdrop of a persistent cost-of-living crisis. I trust Ms Baldwin will use the opportunity to grill them over whether they intend to abandon free banking for those who stay in credit. Maybe she should also ask Mr Rathi to come along.

I doubt that will do any good.
