Yes. You would think with experience in policing communities they would have anticipated some kind of reprisal.I would have thought Police Scotland would have a bit of tightened security in and around the area but then I don't live on the island.
Why exactly is this woman being victimised in the community? I don't get it I admit. Links to explanations could help.
When I was over on 6 June, I noticed that the memorial had moved from the woods across the road to the grass plot. I was wondering why this was done.
It's tricky isn't it, I kind of understand people not wanting to be reminded every day. I thought this was being taken down when the pink bench went into Children's Corner. Was that not the case Deano?
Clearly not , have heard they want to move it in to town now near the benchIt's tricky isn't it, I kind of understand people not wanting to be reminded every day. I thought this was being taken down when the pink bench went into Children's Corner. Was that not the case Deano?
I can understand people not wanting to be reminded of the atrocious act. How are these types of memorials normally handled? It should be a community decision really, I would think.
A lot of strong rumours on the Island, but nothing can be mentioned on here until it gets (or not) a mention in the media.
I'm not sure, the appeal is against the sentence and basically they look at all the evidence given during trial, the reports for sentencing and decide if the sentence was just based on that information.I wonder if we'll hear something new in the Appeal? Is that allowed ?
Angela Haggerty !!! Don’t make me laugh !!!! Poison ivy !!!Bute loses the newspaper that was at the island’s heart for 165 years
Last year the community had to deal with the rape and murder of six-year-old Alesha MacPhail by Aaron Campbell, 16. Angela Haggerty, a journalist and commentator who was born and raised on Bute,“Not long ago the Buteman would have played a key role in the healing process of the community following the murder of Alesha, but not now.
This is still a vibrant island with many of the social challenges associated with working-class communities. An authentic local newspaper would be at the heart of this.”
