ロンドン南部で帰宅中に行方不明の33歳女性、遺体確認　警官を殺人容疑で逮捕

2021年3月11日

Murder of Sarah Everard

From Wikipedia,

Metropolitan Police officer Wayne Couzens falsely arrested her under the pretence of having breached COVID-19 regulations and drove her to near Dover where he raped and strangled her, before burning her body and disposing of her remains in a nearby pond.

　制服の警官が女性を拉致しようとして、女性が叫んでも、バスを手を上げて止めようとしても、女性が不法に抵抗しているだけのようにみえるんじゃないの？ ・・・・怖いわなあ。

Something stinks about the culture of contemporary British policing

It is a ludicrous thing to suggest, impractical and ineffective, and insulting with it. Late at night it is likely that there will be no response from a householder, no bus handily passing by the potential killer, and no one to hear you, the victim, scream

 

そもそも夜だと叫んでも誰もいないし、バスも走ってねえだろう、と。

大体イギリスでは、性犯罪の取り扱いが貧弱で、 

The incidence of successful rape convictions is so low as to invite the charge of institutional misogyny.

強姦されもて、有罪になるケースは少ないし、 

It is a mystery as to why Couzens did such a reckless thing, given what he had so meticulously planned, but perhaps he had a shrewd idea that his colleagues wouldn’t take it seriously. He was right. The same goes for sexual molestation and indecent exposure on public transport. The culprit is being filmed, yet nothing seems to happen. 

警官もとりあわないことがおおいからこそ、それをしって今回の加害者警官が犯行におよんだのだろう、と。電車の中でも痴漢や性器露出があって録画されても警察はとりあわない、と。

　イギリス警察のあり方について腐臭が臭う、と・・・ショックやわああ・・・あこがれのイギリスで。
