Police have closed their criminal investigation into the death of a woman who was killed by 'a frenzied pack of dogs' in Surrey and revealed that nobody has been prosecuted.
Eight dogs were seized at the scene and remain in police custody subject to forensic investigation, though no prosecutions are being brought against any individuals.We've been here before. No prosecutions then, either. Will the H&S Executive step in instead?
Who do you prosecute? The person in control (or not) of the dogs was the victim.

ReplyDeleteIt's a dilemma, yes. Maybe it's best left to the HSE, but dogs that have killed a person, or taken a part in it, should be euthanised. And without a prosecution, I fear that won't happen.

ReplyDeleteWhat on earth is the point of the "complex forensic investigation" if they've already decided no prosecution is going to follow? What are they trying to find out, and what will they do once their find it out?
One of life's little mysteries, I suppose, but one that is no doubt costing us plenty.
