I think it is more than manslaughter, his aim was to hurt him and to knock him to the ground, even with no vulnerability you know there is a chance you can cause anyone serious harm. Add to that the fact the guy is just walking away from you with his hands in his pockets, minding his own business, and you are an officer of the law. It is horrendous. It looks like the culprit has come forward now at last. I hope he gets sent down for a long time if guilty, possibly hard to prove the link to the death though. The damage it does to the image of the police is quite great. Given the peaceful state of the victim at time of attack, it's a wonder not one officer stepped out to stop the offender or challenge him on it.

i would imagine it would not be that difficult to link it to the death of this gentleman. The IPCC is going to investigate if this incident contributed to his death not more than 5 minutes after the incident. We wait for the findings!

... Add to that the fact the guy is just walking away from you with his hands in his pockets, minding his own business, and you are an officer of the law. ...
That's not how I interpreted the image even in the video. It takes a bit of reading between the lines, but my impression was that the police were herding protesters, this guy was deliberately getting in their way to slow them down and block them. EDIT: ie stop them doing their job There's no doubt the police officer was in the wrong, but my impression was he just got impatient with this guys tactics and stepped out of line to push him 'out of the way' rather than push him over. You can achieve a lot with selective editing - it may be that the policeman just fancied hurting someone but generally speaking most people don't 'accidentally' get caught up in a protest.

"How can the officer then tell a kid to obey the law, when he rushes a man from behind?" Kids aren't afraid of the law because everytime something happens the police are highlighted as have so few powers and have to treat people on a different level to which they are treated. It's a bit like footballers in that regard. The crowd can abuse them all day but if the player flick a v then all hell breaks loose. Sandy

Not necessarily. It's better to take a little time over such decisions, let the dust settle. The picture often looks different after some time to reflect. But Fergus won't be returning. Ever.

I agree with this post. That is all.

Ever. ...though if Mr G Bandit keeps opening new blonde Accounts under new aliases, it won't help his cause one bit. Does he really think we won't spot them? He's wrong, not Wright.
