There is a lot of talk about police and jail, when hardly anyone actually understands the law and whole complex it is.
Id love someone to price up- Charged yes or no. Jail yes or no.
Oh boy never thought i'd ever see a thread like this on Blonde sad day really.
Am i a Solicitor/Barrister/Poiliceman no but in a previouse employment i was part of sting to catch a Manager with his hand in the till.
He had stolen/siphoned about 80k over 12 months we had the following evidence.
Computer logs on his password deleting invoices.
Sworn statements from employees given to a private investigator.
Copies of signed paperwork which he had disposed of later.
What happened when we gave this to the police ........... bugger all they didn't prosecute due to lack of evidence.
Our MD kicked up a fuss even wrote to his local MP but nothing, the simple fact is company/personnel fraud is not top of their list.
The officer in charge said ‘off the record’ if the same crime was against the Inland Revenue/Credit Card Company/Bank then yes they may have taken the case on but in there opinion no one got physically hurt and its too much hassle for what a suspended sentence?
The only option you may have is to pursue a civil case to retrieve monies but if its all gone what’s the point
I really do feel for all of you but don’t expect too much from the police, there are a few holes in your evidence which anybody representing Blatch could blow wide open.
I’m also show more will come out of the woodwork in the next few days as more stones are turned over.
Sterling work Homer by the way! Piecing together some sort of timeline in this mess.
