    Nothing gives the police the right
    In the USA if you are acquitted it means they are not guilty. But I guess in the UK if someone is acquitted it means that they deserve to be murdered by the police! That is what you seem to be saying

    Great job
    Very sad situation all around. Also thinking that your hometown should thank you for not getting further into the money launderers... takes a village.
