mr2mk1g 10 #9 October 22, 2003 Maybe because your in the states or something... It basically says that they've arrested 2, the rest is just padding. the article reads: *** Skydive murder police arrest two Stephen Hilder was an experienced skydiver Police investigating the death of a skydiver who plunged 13,000 feet when his parachute was allegedly sabotaged have arrested two people. Two men aged in their 20s were arrested at 1245 BST on Wednesday on suspicion of murder. They have been taken to separate police stations, where they are being interviewed by detectives. Stephen Hilder, 20, an Army cadet from Hereford, died when both his main and reserve chutes failed above Hibaldstow Airfield in north Lincolnshire on 4 July. Humberside Police had conducted hundreds of interviews of people who knew Mr Hilder, along with fellow students at the Defence Academy in Shrivenham, Oxfordshire and Bristol University. A specialist officer with skydiving experience had been brought in to give the team of detectives a clearer insight into the world of skydiving and offer detailed technical knowledge. Officers recently investigated Mr Hilder's movements in the days leading up to the fatal jump and considered the possibility he had arranged to meet someone in the Scunthorpe area.

lazyfrog 0 #10 October 22, 2003 sorry, thought they got 2 guilty guys... maybe one or both are innocent then ?? maybe you (or them/families) don't want to talk about it but the people arrested were working on the DZ ??---------- Fumer tue, péter pue ------------- ourson #10, Mosquito Uno, CBT 579 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
softnotes 0 #11 October 22, 2003 I am SOOOO happy they are making serious work of this incident. I just think we should keep an open mind at this point, since they have arrested them on "suspicion" does not mean they are the guilty ones. BUT, saying that.. If they do turn out to be guilty beyond any reasonable doubt, I hope they fry!Blue Skies SoftNotes "That's not flying.... that's falling with style!"

mr2mk1g 10 #12 October 22, 2003 No idea. Don't even know who's been arrested yet, but I have very many friends amungst the 100(+/-) present that day, im still trying to find out that its not any of them in custody. I do hope the two arrested are the right two and that they get whats comming. We'll have to wait to find out who they are and if they're guilty.

mr2mk1g 10 #14 October 22, 2003 I put that down to english being his second language and it being a question. Is that right? or do you know something more than the rest of us? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't expect to hear too much. British prosecutors are not allowed to leak evidence or stories to the press before trial as that is considered to jeopardize the right of the accused to have an unbiased jury....

mikemc 0 #16 October 22, 2003 all correct, but we WILL hear if they get charged or released. Which will be a very good indication of guilt or not in this type of case.

mr2mk1g 10 #20 October 22, 2003 I do not know who's been arrested yet. I therefore have no idea if they worked at the DZ. I would be very supprised if they did though... all indications so far were that the police were interested in other groups. Sorry for confusion, just your sentance makes use of grammar usually associated with a statement as opposed to a question. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikemc 0 #21 October 22, 2003 want a game of tennis remster? The police in this country seldom arrest and charge people with the crime of murder if they are not absolutely sure they did it. Yes they make mistakes. I dont want a debate about how police arrest and charge for no reason I am answering remster I think he has a hard on for me as I slated him recently.

annna 0 #22 October 22, 2003 It was a very wierd feeling hearing this report (about the arrests) on a Radio 1 news bulletin earlier - a real stop-you-in-your-tracks kind of thing. I don't know much about our own British legal system but wondered how much evidence they need to actually arrest people. I imagine they need some evidence, to back up a suspicion of murder, in order to make the arrests ? I just find it hard to imagine what that evidence could be..... Or do they just need to establish a motive ?? Does anyone have some knowledge that could help me out ? I also feel caught between feeling relieved they're making some progress, and (as someone else mentioned) concerned to make sure the right people/person gets punished. Severely. Gruesomely. And thoroughly. oooopss i'll stop now ;-) anna Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Remster 30 #23 October 22, 2003 QuoteI think he has a hard on for me as I slated him recently. Could you link that post in which you slated me, I must have missed it, but now I'm curious!, and for the record, I dont even have a semi for you QuoteYes they make mistakes. And thats my point. Remember that if they do make a mistake in this case, the person on the reciving end of that mistake will probably be a skydiver you, and maybe I, know. I hope they dont make any mistakes, either in pressing charges on some innocent guy, or while procecuting a guilty one, cuz the result in either case wont be pretty.Remster Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
